| ♪ Such innocence did the child radiate, that the stawberry blonde really could not help but smile at the young girl; her heart ached to protect that very same innocence she witnessed before her., to shelter it so it may never change or grow bitter by the tides of time.
The handed dandelion was accepted with a lighthearted chuckle and a touched smile — how can someone so precious even be real? She would pull the younger into a hug, before pulling away yet again, her previous smile wavering slightly due to the bitter-sweetness of it all;
Ariana wanted to protect all that made her happy but Rosa learned through hardships, that wasn’t always possible. She needed to know if a time ever came when Ari is presented with such an obstacle, that she would not give up the fight either, however to shatter a child’s smile with reality would be of utmost cruelty so she would bite back her words and offer encouragement instead.
❝That’s a really sweet thing to fight for, Ari.. I couldn’t think of anything better..
— don’t ever give up on it, okay?❞ Don’t ever lose that innocence.
