Ariadne's parents had been there for a few days by the time Arthur's mother was scheduled to arrive - which was all to the good, as far as she was concerned. She needed the emotional support provided by her parents to get up the bravery to face his mom. He told her she didn't have to go along to pick her up, but Ariadne insisted. The ginger tea helped a lot with the nausea, and the rest, well. Arthur was with her.

Arthur held Ariadne’s hand as they waited at the terminal. He snuck glances at her, making sure that she was doing okay.

“Arthur?” He looked up as the passengers started coming through. His mother looked different somehow…happier even. “Arthur!” He could see the tears forming in her eyes as she quickly walked over to them.

“Mom?” He asked, unsure if this was the same woman he saw two years ago.

“It’s so good to see you—both of you,” she smiled at them.
