Emily: kneels down to the nephew's height, her eyes misty Y-you asked me to marry you? Oh, sweetheart...
MintyChill

takes a deep breath, trying to compose herself Darling, marriage is a big commitment, it's not just something you can into lightly.
MintyChill
she looks to her she has made a vow to be with her forever
smiles warmly, tears glistening in her eyes Oh, baby, I had no idea you felt this way. It's... it's so sweet, but...
MintyChill
she turns to her she has made a vow to be with her forever
takes a deep breath, she holds MintyChill's tiny hands Baby, I want nothing more than to be with you too, but...
MintyChill
she hugs her
takes a deep breath, she hugs MintyChill tightly, burying her face in her hair My precious little angel, you have no idea how much your love means to me...
MintyChill
she giggles
pulls away slightly, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears Sweetheart, sometimes grown-ups can't always be together, no matter how much we love each other...
MintyChill
she looks to her she has made a vow to be with her forever
takes a shaky breath, she cups MintyChill's cheeks Sweetie, being with you is the most important thing in my life.
MintyChill
I don’t want to go to school
takes a deep breath, she sits down next to MintyChill on the bench I understand, sweetheart. School can be overwhelming sometimes.
MintyChill
she holds her hand
smiles reassuringly Baby, I promise you, I'll always be here for you, no matter what. We'll figure out a way to make school easier for you, okay?
MintyChill
she nods
Emily arranges for a private tutor to come to their home, allowing MintyChill to continue her education in a comfortable environment.
MintyChill

MintyChill
What are you going to do today
takes a deep breath, she smiles warmly Well, baby, I was thinking we could spend the day painting together. You know how much we both love art, right?
MintyChill
Yeah but I just want to be with you
takes a deep breath, she chuckles softly Oh, my little love, I understand. But you know what? We can still be together while doing something creative.
MintyChill
she nods
