"She's so beautiful, and even more so when she sleeps." Sophia whispered to Chastity as they stood beside the bed in the guest bedroom.
"Today was a busy day for her, and for all of us. I am so tired yet so anxious about tomorrow." Chastity said.
"That's why you should try and get some sleep. I called Dad and told him we were coming for a visit. He wants to go out for dinner with us. I hope you don't mind."
"Not at all. He hasn't met Patience yet anyways."
Sophia smiled, "He's looking forward to it. Well goodnight Chastity, I'll see you two in the morning."
"Goodnight."
Chastity crawled beneath the covers beside Patience, and then gave her a kiss on her forehead. She knew she could find sleep for as soon as she turned off the light, her eyes became heavy and she slowly drifted away. At first, it was a dream of her, Michael and Patience walking along an empty beach front. She could feel the sand beneath her toes and the wind whipping about her hair. Patience had wandered over to a pile of seashells and was busy searching for the perfect one. Her dad smiled down at her when she handed him a pearly shell that he placed in his pocket. He picked her up and placed her on his shoulders and then they waved. "Bye Mommy," she heard Patiences voice echo. Chastity became scared as the sky became dark and everything disappeared.
The sound of a child's nursery rhyme being sung echoed in the dark.
Patty cake, patty cake bakers man, bake me a cake as fast as you can.
An image came into focus. It was her as a child sitting in the back seat of a car playing patty cake with another little girl. There was a man driving the car and a woman who sat next to him. It was nighttime. She stopped singing ...
... middle of paper ...
...id Sophia, " but I hope there wasn't another person in that car who lost their life, it's sad enough as it is."
"I need to find out who was chasing us and why. Whoever it was obviously wanted us dead."
Just then the whistle sounded on the teapot which made the two of them jump in their seats.
Sophia stands up, "I'll get it, just relax."
In know time at all Sophia's back at the table with two steaming mugs of tea and spoons for the sugar.
"You had a vision before you came down here. About a man who knocked a bag of groceries out of a woman's hands. Do you think that has something to do with why your family was being chased?"
"I've already given that much thought. I think he had something to do with it, but why?"
They both took a sip of their tea as they sat silently, hoping that the days ahead would find them an answer.
"I'm heading out to make an arrest." He replied, his tone carried a slight hint of Incertitude as to the motive of this inquiry.
...om her mother and transported to a pet store where she was locked in a cage until she was purchased by my friend Hailey. I want you to think about her excitement to have a home and Hailey’s excitement to have a new pet to love. Now I want you to think about Hailey receiving the devastating news that her puppy had to be euthanized and Daisy’s fear as she was taken from her owner’s hands and put to death.
So the very next morning Janie got ready to pick beans along with Tea Cake.”
"And I say the girl's dead and we all helped to kill her and that's what matters."
“Duvall and his gang could have killed us both today. Why did you get involved?”
“They set a bomb off in the base,” she explained looking terrified. “Then they raided it and made sure that not a single one of us had escaped. I was lucky not to be there when it happened. I am even more lucky that they didn’t hunt me down.” She tipped the motorcycle over and hid it with some brush. “Follow me,” she demanded.
His dad smiled softly hearing and sat back down in his chair. "Thanks, Issei. Could you also go check up on your sister? She's probably about to wake up, and I bet she wants to see her older brother."
Closing her phone Melody sat it on her lap hoping another notification didn't pop up, she didn't want to seem thirsty and answer right away but then again she didn't want to leave him hanging and make him not answer her right away.
He perched on the edge of her bed and crossed his arms in his lap. "And what story would my princess like to hear," he asked his accent a shadow of the past.
“I wish he had died after the Unveiling. He would have been buried here so they could be together if he known.”
“Well I can’t talk too much right now I have to go to work. Bye son have a goodnight. Lili I’m leaving alright.” He said and left for the mill.
“Why do they run away? This is a knavery of them to make me afraid,” Exclaimed
“ ...No. I think that person saw the wrong person, or they might even be making it up.”
"Didn't patrol just say they saw a black van leave the park? The same van used in Emma's attempted kidnapping."
"Nonsense, if you remember, this won’t be the first murdered person I've seen. I assume that's why all these cops are here."
