The warm water of the bath enveloped Clara, the bubbles tickling her skin. The scent of lavender filled the air, a familiar fragrance that always calmed her. She closed her eyes, letting the tension drain from her shoulders. She was excited about her daughter, Maya, starting kindergarten.

A notification popped up on her phone. “Mrs. Davies. Maya has Mrs. Davies! Can you believe it?” it read from her friend.

Clara gasped, and a smile crept onto her face. Mrs. Davies! She recalled the kind face, the comforting voice, the countless times Mrs. Davies would help her with her writing. She felt a warm, easy feeling. The memory was a warm blanket, a comfortable embrace.
