Arabella's POV
"Wow! It seemed like the time you spent with your best friend brightened your mood since you look so happy and radiant." My mom said the moment I got inside the house after I met with Hazel.
"Of course, mom, nothing can change what we have no matter what kind of test that will come our way; I am sure she will always be my best friend, and we will always make up," I responded with a wide grin.
"Good for you, my dear," she replied with a beautiful smile, and I felt so happy that she was now back to her old self; she looked more vigorous and younger.
"Thanks, mom, and about Tyler, I decided to stay and be Anika's nurse, and I want to tell you I will try to be the old Arabella; maybe smiling a little won't hurt me." I declared, and my mom's face lit up.
"Oh, Ara, it is about time. Don't smile a little; smile with your eyes and soul, be happy and be in love again; it would be a wonderful feeling." She responded.
