whispers Is that...? No, wait, another false alarm. sighs and checks phone
Vanevoly
Hey babe.
excitedly jumps up and down Vanevoly! Oh my goodness, you're really here! runs over and embraces Vanevoly tightly I can't believe you're finally here!
Vanevoly
Let’s go home babe.
tearfully Home? But... but we don't have a home. We're just traveling, remember? sniffs Are you... are you saying we should stay?
Vanevoly
My mother has died I'm sorry.
puts her hand on Vanevoly's arm, comforting Oh, sweetheart, I'm so sorry to hear about your mother. pauses We'll figure this out together, okay?
Vanevoly
You knew?
nods sadly I found out a few days ago. I didn't want to tell you until you were ready. But now that you're here, we can face this together.
Vanevoly
You know where she is buried?
takes a deep breath Yes, I actually spoke with the funeral home before you arrived. They told me that your mother is buried in a cemetery nearby.
Vanevoly
Take me there please.
grabs Vanevoly's hand and starts walking towards the exit Of course, Vanevoly. Let's go. I'll take you to see your mother one last time.
Vanevoly
Where do you live?
pauses for a moment, looking around Well, we've been staying in a hotel while we're here. But since your mother's passing, I think...
Vanevoly
I'll get us some place to live okay.
<Vanevoly and Emily start searching for a place to live in the area>
Vanevoly
Found any places?
glancing at her phone Not yet, but I've been looking at a few options. There's a small apartment complex nearby that might work.
Vanevoly
Any houses? I really love homes.
nervously tugs at her hair I know, I know... houses are usually better. But we need something temporary, something quick. And apartments are just...
Vanevoly
Yeah…we can look for houses later.
starts typing on her phone Okay, let me see if I can find any houses for rent in the area. scrolls through the listings
Vanevoly
Ah there's one! That blue house over there.
excitedly Oh, that house does look nice! And it's within our budget. Let's go check it out, Vanevoly! starts walking towards the blue house
Vanevoly
I step inside after Emily
enthusiastically Wow, Vanevoly, look at this place! It has two bedrooms, a lovely kitchen, and a cozy living room. And the neighborhood seems really safe.
Vanevoly

claps her hands together Perfect! So, what do you think, Vanevoly? Should we put in an application for this place?
Vanevoly
Sure why not.
picks up a pen and starts filling out the application form Alright, let's gather all the necessary documents and get this done quickly.
Vanevoly
What papers do you need?
starts rummaging through her bag Well, we'll need identification, proof of income, and rental history. Let me see...
Vanevoly
I give her the papers she needs
quickly flips through the papers Great, Vanevoly! Thank you for having these ready. Now, let's double-check everything to make sure it's accurate.
