As Elara processed her new classification, the professionals exchanged looks of understanding before one of them turned back to her. “We’re going to bring in someone from a special school who will help you transition to your new home. They’re experienced in working with Littles like you.”

Elara’s heart raced at the thought of leaving everything she had ever known. Just moments ago, she had been filled with uncertainty about her identity, and now she faced the reality of moving to a new environment altogether. It felt surreal, as if she were stepping into a story that wasn’t entirely her own.

A few minutes later, the door opened, and two young women entered the room. They were identical twins, their bright smiles and cheerful demeanor instantly making Elara feel a little more at ease. “Hi there! I’m Mia, and this is my sister, Ava,” one of them introduced enthusiastically. “We’re here to help you get settled!”

Elara smiled weakly, her anxiety still bubbling beneath the surface. The twins led her out of the room and into a waiting vehicle parked outside. As they walked, Elara couldn’t help but glance back at the building that had been her home for so long, a mix of nostalgia and fear washing over her.

Once inside the car, Mia and Ava pulled out a bag filled with clothes. “We brought some little attire for you,” Ava explained, holding up a soft, pastel-colored sweater and comfortable leggings. “We want you to be cozy on the way to your new home.”

Elara felt a blush creep up her cheeks as they pulled out a package containing pull-ups. “And these are just in case you need them during the car ride,” Mia added with a reassuring smile. “We don’t want any accidents, right?”

Though the situation was overwhelming, Elara appreciated their kindness. She changed into the comfortable clothes, feeling the soft fabric envelop her like a warm embrace. The pull-up felt foreign but also provided a sense of security, a reminder of the nurturing environment she was stepping into.

Once dressed, the twins helped her buckle up in the backseat. As they began to drive away from the only home she had ever known, Elara gazed out the window, watching the familiar streets blur into the distance. The world outside felt both exciting and terrifying, a new chapter unfolding before her.

The soothing sounds of the car engine and the gentle chatter of the twins created a calming atmosphere. Elara’s eyelids grew heavy, and despite her apprehension, she felt a wave of exhaustion wash over her. It had been an emotional day, and the warmth of the car enveloped her like a cozy blanket.

Before she realized it, her consciousness began to drift, and she succumbed to sleep. As she nestled into the comfortable seat, the worries of her past faded away, replaced by the hope of what lay ahead in this new journey as a ‘Little.’ The road stretched on, leading her toward a future that was still a mystery, but one she was ready to embrace, even in her dreams.
