“It’s only a little bit of rain.”

"We're weathered in, Pearly." Honey sighed.

Pearly shook her head, her hands fiddling with the saltwater taffy wrappers, folding them into little stars.

"It's only a little bit of rain." She continued to mutter, but remained focused on the little stars.

Honey smiled, listening to the rain hit the window harshly, it was is as if the rain was was a person. Terrified, in search of a safe haven from the beasts outside.

"Where's Copper?" Pearly turned her head toward Honey, her fingers still folding the wrappers into little stars. Honey stared at her with wide eyes. Copper, their cat, held an orange color of fur, close to the color of copper wire.

"He's upstairs."

Pearly nodded, turning herself back to the little stars. "I'm makin' some stars for him." She popped the taffy into her mouth, the wrapper to the side.

"So I can wish for him to come back."

"For who to come back?" Honey asked in confusion.

"Copper, he said himself he was like us in his past life, Ma." She smiled brightly "so, I'm bringin' em back."
