Anya stretched out as she woke up and looked up at her father, smiling sweetly. It was nice to be able to see him first thing in the day all the time. She hugged James back, resting her head on his chest.

"It's a big day today, right papa? I bet we'll find a cure this time. I'm feeling really good about today," said Anya.

Then again, she'd said that many times before. And had a good feeling about the day many times before. But this time, it was probably really going to happen.

Though she'd thought that before too.

But her spirits were just as high as the first time, and she knew that if she kept on hoping, one day she would be right.
