Kate watched the dancers. She had not opened the box since a little girl. Her mother had given it to her before she died. Kate looked over at Alyx and saw his was turned. She could tell he was slow in his moments and and his lovely violet eyes were not so bright. Kate had seen him sad and she closed the box. "This is a happy season Alyx, it plays many songs. Magic has a way finding our emotions and you miss your family just like I miss my Mom. I barely remember her and I go on. I am not one to believe in the gods and fate. I know my mother is with me though I can't see her. I have her because I have her love of magic, for using flowers and herbs. You have things your parents gave you. They are with you too."<br/><br/>Kate took out a snow globe and shakes it. She watched as the scene is blanket by a swirling storm  inside. She set it on his nightstand. Kate walks over and stands to left of Alyx . She takes his left hand into her right. She looks him in the eyes,  "I don't mind you being sad. It is lovey song and easy to dance to. The waltz is easy. You draw a box with your feet. It like learning footwork when you fight. Only you have a partner that is not trying to kill you."
