Miss Lottie: Lizabeth, why did you do it? Those marigolds were my pride and joy.
Lizabeth: I... I don’t know, Miss Lottie. I just felt so lost and angry in that moment. It wasn't really about the flowers.
Miss Lottie: But they were more than just flowers to me. They were a symbol of hope in this dusty, dreary world.
Lizabeth: I realize that now. I didn’t understand your struggle then. I was selfish, and I’m truly sorry for what I did.
Miss Lottie: It’s not just the marigolds that were destroyed, Lizabeth; it’s the trust we had. Do you promise to grow from this?
Lizabeth: I promise, Miss Lottie. I need to learn and understand the beauty in someone else's fight.
Miss Lottie: Then let’s start anew; I can teach you to nurture life, not just with flowers but with kindness and understanding.
