starts humming a happy tune while digging Look, Dad! The sun is shining, and the earth is so soft! This is gonna be the perfect spot for our tree! ππ¨
<As Carly and Stranger plant the tree together, they start to bond again and create new memories. Over time, their relationship slowly heals, filling the house with laughter and warmth once more.>

pauses for a moment, looking up at Stranger with a warm smile Me too, Dad. I'm really glad we're doing this. It feels... right. π
giggles, playfully nudging Stranger You know what else feels right? Having a picnic under this new tree! π₯ͺ How about we pack some sandwiches and enjoy the sunshine together?
