Bonnie's eyes filled with surprise and anticipation at the praise. "Is it pretty? Is it really pretty?"
Renee Jennings opened the selfie mode on her phone and held it out to her. "It's really pretty. See for yourself."
Bonnie stared at herself on the screen, raised a hand to touch the hair clip on her head, and her lips curved into a small smile. "I like it!"
"I'm glad you like it." Renee Jennings's lips curved into a smile as she handed over a fuzzy pink flower purse. "It's full of pretty hair clips. They're for you."
Bonnie stroked the flower purse, unable to put it down. "Is it really for me?"
"Really." Renee Jennings patted her head, her heart aching for the little orangutan.
'She keeps asking if it's real. It's like she can't believe she'd ever receive a gift. Why is that?'
Renee Jennings tilted her head to look at Hilary and voiced her confusion. "Why is Bonnie like this?"
