Looking at the older girl's forlorn expression, Emilia smiled as she put the phone on speaker and set it aside on the bed to climb onto Samantha's lap. Pulling the girl's head into her chest, she gently ran her fingers through her curly brown locks in consolation. "Don't be sad, sister. I'll make sure you're happy before I leave, don't worry."
