Cynthia gave the woman a soft smile, very patient and giving her all the time that she needed to figure out how to speak and what she wanted to say.  "Hello, Piper," Cynthia said gently, in as much of a reassuring tone as she could.<br/><br/>The question of being allowed to leave made her stall for a moment, but only for a moment, which she hoped wouldn't be noticed amidst Piper's sluggish reactions.  "They're fixing up your room, Piper," she replied with her ever-unending cheery disposition.  "Everything's going to be set for you very soon."<br/><br/>Upon seeing Piper looking at her hand, Cynthia guessed it as an invitation, and started to reach over to take Piper's hand.  "Everything's going to be alright."
