Calliope had calmed down by the time Calix entered the guest room but, she was still sniffling. Smiling in helplessness, he approached the bed and climbed on it before sitting next to Leslie.
"Your favorite Mimo, here."
Holding the crochet fox toy in both hands, Calix offered it to Calliope. His smile was laced with a hint of nervousness. The little one stared at the toy Mimo for quite some time before finally taking it from the man.
Calliope continued looking at the toy Mimo. Despite being quite worn out, she loved this toy dearly. She didn't know why Water Fairy gave it to her but, she was glad to get it.
Her mama and papa appeared after she got Mimo! Her Mimo was so amazing ah! Her guardian angel!
Raising her chin, Calliope brought up her eyes to meet Calix's. She stared at him for a moment longer before looking at Leslie.
"Papa? Mama?"
