“What are you doing here?”

“I——–,”before Alice could continue she hears an all too familiar sound. Running across the field was Winterfell. When he sees Angelica he runs up to her and begins playfully licking her in the face.

“Aunt Al, I think maybe you should get back in your car Winterfell is very protective and I don’t——-.”

Before Angelica could continue Winterfell walks towards Alice and Alice bends down to greet him. As Winterfell got closer he stands on his hind legs and wraps his paws around Alice neck embracing her in a hug.

“Hey boy—-yes I really missed you to you hungry?”

Winterfell barks in excitement.

Alice laughing, “I take that as a yes!”

Angelica can hardly believe her eyes. Winterfell greeted Alice in the same manner that he would always greet Tasha.

“You know Winterfell?”

Looking at Angelica, “Yeah—-yes I do were very close.”

“But how, “Angelica says assuming her search for her keys.

“Angelica.”

“Yeah?”

“I already opened the door.”

Angelica looks and saw that the front door was slightly opened.

“Wha—–you have a key?”

“Angelica I think it’s time we Talked.”

“Aunt Al, I really don’t have nothing to say to you I already know the truth, “she says grabbing her luggage and no longer wanting to breath the same air as Alice. “I don’t know how you got a key or how you know Winterfell but it doesn’t change the fact that oh forget it.”

Alice runs and cuts her off, “See that’s the problem I have been too busy trying to protect you that it has lead you to believe in a lie you think you know but you have no idea.”

“What lies?”

“All I’m asking for is just ten minutes of your time if you don’t like what I have to say I’ll leave.”

“Just ten minutes?”

“Yes just ten minutes.”

Reluctantly Angelica agrees to talk and follows Alice inside Tasha house. Once inside Alice feeds Winterfell and then both she and Angelica sit down on the couch to talk.

In jail Tasha is slowly beginning to adjust to life behind bars. Even though she was forced to stay in her cell twenty two hours out of the day she tried her best to make use of her time. She was allowed to check out books from the library. She was grateful that the library had the entire Game of Thrones series. When she wasn’t reading her thoughts always took her back to Alice. She was thankful that Alice allowed her to care for her. When Tasha closed her eyes she could still smell her scent, feel her breath on her neck, and how it felt to hold her in her arms. At this point in her life she knew she didn’t have much to offer Alice but if Alice wanted it her heart was forever hers.
