"More tea?" Martha asked, her voice soft. She held out the silver teapot, the steam curling into the air between them. The gentle clinking of china on china filled the quiet space of her kitchen. Her granddaughter, Lily, nodded, her eyes wide with curiosity.

The bright colors of the flowers matched the bright colors of the day. The afternoon was for Lily, for stories, for the slow pleasure of shared moments.
