The golden rays of the sun, streams through the window, bathing the room in a golden glow.
My eyes snaps open, I quickly shield my eyes from the golden rays.
I turn to the other side of the bed to see Gina sleeping soundly beside me.
My lips curl into a smirk. I thought she'll sleep in Emma's room to keep an eye on her.
I'm not surprised. I guess she got tired and left.
My chest tightens at the thought of Emma being all by herself all through the night.
Is she still breathing. Dread washes over me.
I fling the bedcover and get out of bed, Gina stirs on the bed, still sleeping.
I hurry to the door, yank it open and step out.
Gently,I open the door to Emma's room and peek my head in. She's on the bed, the steady rising and falling of her chest visible from where I'm standing.
