Pema walked inside with two bags hanging on each arm, and a fifth bag dangling around Salem, who was hovering next to her.
"I come bearing goodies!" Pema cheered and lifted her arms.
"I still think five bags is a little too excessive." Salem stated.
She shook her head. "Oh, Salem. There comes a time in everyone's life where no amount of food is excessive! Besides, since everyone is here, we can all eat these together!"
Salem noticed how happy Pema looked, especially at that moment, then conceded. "Yeah, point taken."
She skipped over to Aya's bedside. "Umm, these are for you, Ms. Aya. I didn't know which kinds of pastries you liked, so I bought a whole bunch of tasty treats! I hope you're feeling better."
Salem floated to Pema, and she grabbed the fifth bag from around him, placing it on the table next to her.
