Nova
After every storm, there is a rainbow.
She bounced down the path with the energy of a shooting star, purple and green sequined scarf flapping in the wind that carries her pleasant humming. When she spots her brother's pale hair lounging on their porch, Nova gasps, grabbing Caly's hand tightly. "He's home!" A sparkling giggle spreads like seawater around the pair as she rushes them forward to reunite with their sibling. She's used to wandering away from home, but it felt different when her siblings chose to do the wandering, and she'd found that she missed seeing his broody face and secret smiles around the house.
Once they are within shouting distance, Nova is waving her arm, blue snowflake sweater sleeve flapping over her hand. "Hi Vespy! We missed you! Did you have a good trip?!" Her smile is bright and full of expectant excitement. "Did you bring us back any presents?" She knows the answer is probably a 'yes,' but she giggles with girlish delight at the 'surprise' that must await them.
