It took three days for me and my dad to build the new shed in our backyard after a tree fell on the old one. I still have the mosquito bites to prove it.
Aaaaand that answers that question. Beauty's been away for months, but less than a year. That's still a long time to go without knowing what happened to your beloved little sister, though. Beauty knows that and apologies for it, which will hopefully start to mend the pain she caused, even if she left for good reasons.
So much change for both of them, now they're trying to reconnect again.
Also I absolutely love the "zomg babby!!!" "i kno rite, like, wtf" exchange.
