Sia exclaimed, her eyes mirroring disbelief, "Daddy's told me so much about you." Saying this, she wrapped her arms around Seraphina in a hug. Seraphina stayed motionless, still processing the scene that was unfolding in front of her. Sia awakened something in her that she thought she had buried deep within her for eight long years. Sia reminded Seraphina of 'her'. Even though she had been resistant at first, Seraphina slowly gave in and knelt down to properly wrap her arms around Sia.
