I felt a light taping on my face that was beginning to irritate me. I raised my hand to swat whatever it was away. Someone caught my hand and held it tight.
“Merilee, wake up.” It was my dad. What did he want?
“Daddy, what is it?” I opened my eyes to look at him. He looked relieved. I was on the couch and he was looking down at me holding something cold to my head. Did I fall asleep or pass out again?
It didn’t take long before everything came back to me. I panicked. Sabrina was here. I shot off the couch and rushed to the fireplace, my back to it and my hands over my belly. I was glad to feel the twins still swimming around, relieved that they were safe.
“Relax, Merilee, they’re gone.” Dad came and stood next to me.
I looked around the room, my sisters were here and so were the guys
