October was in the air, and Aofie was living for the cooler weather. She didn’t have much today, other than a last-minute babysitting request from Daphne Anderson. Aofie had grown quite fond of the young girl. After meeting at the secondary school library, the two had become quite bonded. Not in a mom-and-daughter-kind of way, but like a cool aunt. More so, Aofie really had no idea if she wanted biological children of her own yet – but she was also okay with just helping the neighborhood kids.
Daphne had shown interest in sewing. Aofie wasn’t the one to do a lot of garment sewing, but she could at least help Daphne with a small quilt project of some sort. Something a 9-year-old could handle. After Chase had dropped Daphne off with Aofie, the two buckled up to head to Seven Siren’s.
Aofie was fond of the art store and all the lovely and kooky women and men she met there. It was a place that Aofie found herself smiling a lot at. After helping Daphne out of the car, the two walked in. “So, Daphne,” Aofie smiled. “Would you like to look at fabric first or browse a bit?” The older woman wasn’t in a rush. And knowing that Chase’s emergencies could take a bit – she didn’t think Daphne would mind. Even if Aofie had something to do, Courtney was a call away.
Daphne was used to her father getting called away to work. Horses tended to lose shoes at the most inconvenient of times. The young girl was happy when she heard that Miss Walsh was going to look after her until her father was done work.
Ever since her Dad had surprised her with an apron, she became curious about sewing and how things were made. It didn't take her long to figure out that Miss Walsh also enjoyed sewing - it was something that brought them closer together. She excitedly got into the car, chatting away about sewing as the car moved towards the craft store.
She happily walked into the store, making sure to stay close as they crossed the parking lot. "Look around first please. I've never been in here before. Do you have an idea of what we are going to sew today?" The bright colored fabrics were already distracting the young girl. She didn't realize that there were so many options. "Did you see the apron my Dad got for me? Do you know how to make one of those?" She happily wore it whenever she was at Seven Oaks helping out with the farrier work.
