Chapter 1: Yay School Supplies
“Now Alexis, remember what we’ve discussed?” Willow asked her blond haired blue eyed little girl. “Yes Mom, you’ve told me a thousand times, ok well not a thousand more like 8 ½, half because half-way through the ninth time aunt Buffy was laughing a mocking your gestures so you stopped and started scolding her, and I’m babbling aren’t I?” Willow laughed “Yup you are definitely my daughter, but honey I am going to say it again ok, when we get inside the mall you are going to stick with mom ok, no wandering off ok?” Willow had to make sure her daughter understood, Alexis had a tendency to wander off. “Geez, mom I get lost at the zoo once and you act like the world ended” Alexis sighed, although she knew that to her mom, the feeling of not knowing where she was, was torture. “fine, fine, I know you’re 8 years old and that incident happened a year ago, but still, and you get lost at the market ALL the time, and you get lost at the malls back home countless times as well, AND that ONE time at the zoo, I caught you on your way to see the hyenas, the Hyenas!!! Remember what I told you about Uncle Xander!” Alexis rolled her eyes as her mom once again went on about Uncle Xander and hyenas.
The mother and daughter team walked around the mall picking up things that Alexis would need for school. Willow always made supplies last, because for Alexis that was the best part, so Willow always used supplies, and of course books for leisure as a reward for the girl’s excellent behavior throughout the day. However, while Willow was looking at a store window, Alexis pulled yet another disappearing act. Willow was quickly heading into panic mode.
---In a nearby pet store—
Alexis was playing with the puppies, well one golden retriever to be exact. She was talking to the little puppy “hi girl, you’re the cutest thing aren’t you? Yes you are!! I wish I can have a puppy, mom says I’m too young, well she says it with a lot more words, she tends to babble, I have no idea where she gets it, my grand parents aren’t very chatty…I guess I babble too huh…mom says I picked it up from her, oh man!! I did it again, mom will have a cow, and she’ll postpone buying supplies, man oh man. I’m so lost I can’t even remember where I left her. I’m hitting panic mode now!” As she said this a blonde lady, came running to her side, she had been listening to the girl and was very amused she reminded her so much of her other half, well of Willow “I can’t keep thinking of her as my other half, when I’m not even with her” she thought to herself. She started comforting the little girl.
“hey sweetie, it’s ok I’ll help you find your mom, what’s your name?” Tara asked in a soothing voice.
“I’m Alexis, but…I’m…uhm… not s..s..supposed to be t..t..t..talking to strangers” Alexis hasn’t stuttered in years, her mom said she was sad it left her, but that it was also a good thing cause it meant she wasn’t nervous.
“ok I understand, well Alexis, and by the way that’s a beautiful name, but we’re in a public place ok, and surrounded by many people, so the minute you feel unsafe with me I want you to scream with all you have ok, and my name is Tara, Tara Maclay”
Alexis eyes grew wide, “Maclay that’s my –” before Alexis could finish her sentence her mom ran to her. And picked her up “Alexis I’ve been worried sick. I can’t believe you just wandered off what if you met some psycho who took you away from me, honey, you’re my life and I can’t lose my life, not again” Alexis knew what her mom had meant she’s heard the story or a version of the story many times. “Mom, a psycho didn’t find me but someone else did, someone I think you know” Alexis pointed at a now very quiet and pale Tara “ I was just about to tell Tara about how-” Willow cut her off again “how we were about to have mochas well I was, Alexis is gonna have hot coco or chocolate milk and you’re welcome to join us I mean if you’re not busy but I mean if you’re busy then its ok, or if you just don’t want to hang with me which you probably don’t I mean you haven’t returned any of my calls or letters in the last 3 years so…I guess I’m sorry I shouldn’t have asked. Come on Alexis lets go” Willow sighed and Alexis knew better than to argue with her mom, she gave Tara a sad look and waved goodbye. “Wil, w…w..wait…I’d love to join you.”
