"Oh my goodness! Of course, you are not. You are a fully grown woman." Dr Venessa scanned Amelia from head to toe, tears pulling in her eyes as she recalled the loss of a dear friend.
"Yes, I'm." Amelia chuckled amid tears.
"I know this is unprofessional." Dr Vanessa's eyes shifted to Blaze as if seeking his approval. "But, can I hug you?"
Blaze give her a curt nod without saying anything.
"Certainly." Amelia nodded as she took two steps closer.
Both women embraced each other warmly leaving Blaze slightly lost.
"I'm so sorry about your mother. I couldn't bring myself to accept the fact that she left us so early."
"It's okay. That is in the past now." Amelia pulled away, wiping her tears with the back of her hand while ushering the doctor back to her seat.
