The Magic Box, Monday

Alex decided to take Melanie to work with her and then to class later in the day because she thought it might be fun.

In the spirit of Valentine's Day, she'd cast a spell to create a theme in the store. Paper hearts floated throughout the store (she'd avoided anything relating to those baby cupids, just to be safe) and heart-shaped bubbles floating around. Some were low enough that Melanie could chase them.

That may have had Alex giggling a little.

She had some coloring books and crayons in a corner, should any other kids happen on by the store and need some form of entertainment.

The Magic Box is open.

[OCD free.]

And said friend was launching herself in Harper's direction, attempting to hug her or tackle her, given the speed and force behind it.

"Aunt Harper, hi!"

Alex was on her feet, laughing a bit at Melanie's reaction, ready to catch those drinks if they happened to get knocked out of Harper's hands. Hooray for destructive potential future children.

Harper was a bit startled at first, but as a realization came over her, she slowly started to grin. "Aunt Harper? I'm an aunt? Yes!" Fortunately, she managed to hang onto the drinks.

"Aunt Harper" could only mean one thing.

"So, I'm married to Uncle Justin where you come from, right?" she asked Melanie.

Please ignore Alex facepalming behind the counter there.

"Maaaaaaaybe," Melanie answered diplomatically. She must have gotten that from her other mother. Alex would've avoided the question completely. "You're happy where I'm from." If that helped, at all.

"That works for me, sweetie," said Harper, grinning as handed Melanie her hot chocolate. "So, are you having a good time visiting your mom?"
