Once she made it back to the village, she ran to her Pod and ran to her bed. She removed her pillow on her bed to reveal a picture of she and her mom that her dad had given her for her 15th Birthday. It was the only picture of her mother that she had. Poppy just sobbed at the picture. Branch finally came in. "Poppy what's wrong?!" He asked in concern. "King Gristle told me my mother might be alive!" She cried while staring at the picture. "OK well isn't that a good thing?" Branch asked. "I guess. I Just cant believe I've lived nearly 22 years of my life thinking she's gone." She replied, still sobbing. Branch sympathised with her. He knew what it was like to lose someone you loved dearly. But unlike Poppy, he remembers the exact moment it happened. Poppy has absolutely no memory of her mother what so ever. But he couldn't stand seeing her in such a state. Seeing her go grey in that pot was enough torture. "Well, why don't we go and find her?" Branch suggested. "I don't even know if she's alive!" Poppy replied. "Don't lose hope Poppy." He said cupping her chin. "She could be thinking of you right this very moment." He continued. Poppy smiled at him wiping the tears from her cheeks. "Thank you Branch but... I don't where she could be." She said depressingly. "Poppy, that's not a problem. Ever since you made me happy, I promised myself that I would return the favour in some way. And I know finding your mother will help you complete your life. You know why? Because you can always count on me." Branch said before he started singing Count On Me By Bruno Mars.
If you ever find yourself stuck in the middle of the sea,
I'll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can't see,
I'll be the light to guide you
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like one two three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like four three two
You'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah
Whoa, whoa
Oh, oh
Yeah, yeah
If you tossin' and you're turnin' and you just can't fall asleep
I'll sing a song
Beside you
And if you ever forget how much you really mean to me
Everyday I will
Remind you
Ooh
Find out what we're made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like one two three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like four three two
You'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah
Oh, oh
Yeah, yeah
You'll always have my shoulder when you cry
I'll never let go
Never say goodbye
You know you can
Count on me like one two three
I'll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like four three two
And you'll be there
'Cause that's what friends are supposed to do, oh yeah
Oh, oh
You can count on me 'cause I can count on you
As Branch finished up the song, Poppy got up and gave him a great big hug. "Thank you Branch. I know I can always count on you." She said. "First thing tomorrow, we set off and go find that person in life you've missed." Branch said convincingly. "Ok, but I'll have to talk to Gristle first before we leave." Poppy replied. Branch nodded back at her before they shared another hug.
