Willow sat on the floor in front of the television, playing with her dolls and watching a show on a preschool channel. Luckily, she didn’t seem fazed by the stress in the room. Trina would do anything to keep her child from the pain she was feeling right now.
“I know, honey, I know. It’ll be okay.” Paige patted Trina’s hand.
“What was I supposed to do?” Trina’s heart raced, and her head was spinning. What did I just do?
“Tyler, tell her it’ll be okay.” Paige looked back and forth between the two of them.
