Then came the day when she was supposed to visit her mother. She was so happy with Atmey that she did not want to go anywhere, but she had to, because her mother had to know that everything is alright and that she does not need to worry. Esme dressed in her beautiful self-made dress, kissed Atmey and went into the forest.
