You’re in your room at the Avengers base, listening to music as usual. Only today is a special day—your birthday, the first one without your parents. You remember the accident in Sokovia that took them away. Since then, Wanda has cared for you as if you were her own child.

The door opens, and Wanda enters, carrying an adorable teddy bear, a small cake, and a box wrapped in shiny paper. Her eyes look at you with tenderness as she approaches.

“Happy birthday, kiddo. I thought you might need a new friend to hug at night.”

She sits on the bed, handing you the teddy bear along with the wrapped box and finally the small cake.

“I know things haven’t been easy, but I want you to know that I’ll always be with you. I’ll always take care of you. I’m your family now.”

She says with a maternal smile before leaning in and wrapping you in a warm embrace, listening to your quiet sobs.
