*Hazel looked around in Marie's room.*
"Wow, you have a beautiful room, Miss."

"I told ya cwall me Marie oookay?" She grinned and ran over to her bed and grabbed a stuffed monkey "This is Govna Boo, 'e's me favorite toy" she slid off her bed and walked over to Hazel "but I want's you to 'ave it, cause you ain't got no toys an' if we is gonna be living togetha, we gotta 'ave toys so we can play togetha!"
She smiled and handed the stuffed monkey to Hazel.
Marie's room was plain, like the rest of the shelter, but different in the way that the room was purple and there was carpet on the floors. She had a small bed with a quilted blanket and a pillow. There was a small dresser in the corner and a small closet and one toy chest that was painted the same color as the wall.
"Le's move this chest ova so when daddy comes upstairs he can put yer cot 'ere.'

((She's giving her favorite toy to Hazel? Awwwwww! *melts* ))
*Hazel smiled and looked at the stuffed monkey Govna Boo. Then she looked up at Marie, who was giving away her favorite toy to her, and she was so touched that her eyes filled with tears. Nobody had ever been kind with her before. Instead of taking the monkey she embraced Marie, giving her a biiiiig hug.*
"I-I can't take your favorite toy from you. How about we share him? I would love to play with you."
*She looked around the cozy room with a smile.*
"You have a really nice room. Thank you for letting me staying with you."
*She helped Marie moving the chest.*

As they moved the chest Marie smiled "No, I mean it the Govna's yer's now" as soon as they got it to the other side of the room John knocked on the door. "Requesting permission for entry" John said in a sing-song voice.
"Permission granted!" Marie giggled and put a sisterly arm around Hazel "We made room for her bed!" John looked at the empty space on the right side of the room and smiled and began pulling the cot in and unfolded it. "It isn't much, I promise in time we'll get you a good bed, one like Marie's."

Hazel brightened up in a smile again. First she hugged Marie tightly thanking her for the monkey, then she ran over to John, wrapping her arms around his leg and hugging him as well.
"That's the bestest bed I've ever had!!"

John looked at the humble cot and rubbed his hands atop the little girls matted hair.
And that is just terrible.
He reached down by the door and grabbed a pile of clothes "These are for you" he handed them to Marie "make room in your dresser for them hrm?"
Marie saluted and went over to the dresser and put them in the bottom drawer, keeping out a pretty blue dress and walked back over to them.
"Now Marie, Hazel's hair is very knotty would you mind helping her with a bath and combing it out, if it can't be all combed I'm afraid we are going to have to cut it" he looked down at Hazel "if that is all right with you."

*Hazel looked up at him, with sparkling eyes. She already adored these people. She had got much more things than she had ever owned, and now even new clothes. If John had asked her if he could chop of her head with an axe she would have allowed him to do that as well.*
"Okay."
*She smiled lovingly.*

John smiled "Marie has her own bathroom and a nice big tub aaand I just bought her a present that you can both use, give me a second" he ran out of the room and Marie turned to Hazel clueless of what he was bringing back.
A minute later John returned carrying something behind his back "Ready?"
"Ready!"

*Hazel looked up at John again in disbelief. More presents? She had got so much already. Then she smiled and looked at Marie.*
"Ready!"

John pulled out a tall glass bottle a big box "Bathing bubbles and ribbons!"
Marie clapped her hands and hugged her father, she didn't have many ribbons and not for a long time had she even seen bathing bubbles.

*Hazel looked up at Marie and whispered.*
"What is bathing bubbles and ribbons?"
*The life on the streets meant no luxury. Not even bathing bubbles. The only bathes she ever got, was hard scrubbing with a brush, and MAYBE salt in the water.*

Marie let go of her father and smiled "Oh I'mma show you right now" John smiled and handed Marie the bottle and the box "Papa can you start the bath, I never get the water right like youuuu do" she batted her lashes playfully and John rolled his eyes.
"You're just being lazy" he laughed and went inside the bathroom and started the bath, Marie set the dress she had taken out for Hazel on the bed and opened the box of ribbons "these is ribbons! They're for putting in your hair, see?" She tied a pink one in her hair and smiled.
Moments later John came out "The water's ready for the bubbles, and I'll leave you girls to it."
With that he moved out the door and closed it behind him.
"Come on!" She giggled picking up a matching ribbon and the bubbles and pulling Hazel toward the bathroom.

*Hazel's eyes grew big when she saw all the ribbons in beautiful colors. She smiled.*
"They are so pretty!"
*She exclaimed.*
"I have never had a ribbon before. Only string."
*Hazel giggled and ran into the bathroom with Marie, curious to find out what bubbles meant.*

"Well I don't 'ave many ribbons, cause Papa says that 'e'll only buy em for me if they're silk. He says a lady should only have silk ribbons." She popped open the cork of the bubbles and sniffed it "Mmmm smells loike flowers, 'ere smell" she pushed the bottle underneath Hazel's nose gently.
