They all walked outside as Violet was already waiting at the gate while she was counting her arrows
Gabe walked beside Clem as he held out his hand for her to hold
Clem smiled at his hand as she took it and intertwined their fingers
Gabe smiled at her as they got to Violet at the gate
"Morning, Vi" Clem said smiling as Violet was distracted by counting her arrows and being in thoughts
"21. 22. 23." Violet Said quietly counting her arrows
"Vi? "Clem asked trying to get her attention
"24. 25. 26. 27." Violet Said still counting
Clem then handed Mari to Gabe and kneeled down to Violet and took one of her arrows
"Hey! Oh... hi Clem." Violet Said now acknowledging her
"Are you okay" Clem asked giggling
"Yeah, why?" Violet asked
"Well, you was distracted and you never counted your arrows by yourself" Clem said giggling
"Well I wanted to make sure we had enough." Violet Said putting he sack of arrows on her back like a backpack
"Okay then. How many do you have? " Clem asked smiling
"I think maybe 30 to 35. I can go get more if you want." Violet Said
"No, it's okay. I have around 40 arrows for myself" Clem said smirking as she grabbed her bag with arrows beside Violet
"Great. So shall we get going?" Violet asked
"No! Wait a second" Clem said before she turned around to Gabe, Kate and AJ
Gabe just looked at her while he was holding Mari
"I'll be back in no time, guys" Clem said smiling before she kissed Gabe's cheek
"Ok. Just... be safe." Gabe Said kissing her cheek back
"Don't worry. We'll be safe and we'll hurry so we can see you guys sooner. Especially you, little princess" Clem said kissing Mari's forehead
Mari reached out and touched Clem's face with her tiny baby hands
"Aww... Don't make it hard for me to leave" Clem said giggling
Mari kept staring right at Clem's face while touching it
"I'm sorry, sweetie. I gotta go now" Clem said as she felt a bit sad while looking at Mari
Mari couldn't understand what Clem meant as she kept touching her face
"Can... Can someone help me somehow? " Clem asked still feeling sad, that she had to leave her daughter again
"How?" Kate asked
"I don't know how. It's just so hard to just go away from her" Clem answered while not taking her eyes off of Mari
Gabe then held Mari back closer to him as Mari gave her mother sad eyes
"Come on, sweetie. Mommy's gonna be back in a few hours. And while I'm gone, daddy is gonna have some fun with you" Clem said holding Mari's hands
"Yeah. Daddy's gonna take good care of you until mama comes back, princess." Gabe Said cooingly as he kissed Mari's cheek
"Okay, I think I have an idea" Clem said taking off her hat and then put it in Mari's hands
"You sure?" Gabe asked Clem
