Christine laughed. "You will get tired of thanking me." Luvkily. The shoe store didn't take very long. They managed a nice pair of boots for her that would fit and a more comfortable and durable pair for daily activities. The woman also got a pair for the girl that were a bit fancier and higher heeled , she could get used to wearing them before they were needed.

The furniture took almost no time, Christine managed to get a simple bed and dresser ordered to be delivered the next day. She then wanted to delay meeting Ellie's parents, so she made the excuse of eating a small meal at the market. They had been busy since the girl was hired after all.

Finally. Christine tried to hide her nervousness as she let Ellie take the lead this time. "Just remember, your practically an adult and you're going to be taken care of. They can come check on you any time as well..." she said as if hoping she wouldn't have to speak to them.
