what was that? I asked myself. I felt it again; she is trembling. I keep my eyes closed for just a moment longer. I look up to see the bedside clock blazing 4:17 at me.
"I need to talk." I hear so softly it seems she is talking to herself.
"I know." I get out in a broken voice. I sit up, stretch my neck and reach for the light.
"Leave it off or i don't..." her voice trailing off. I feel her trembling becoming stronger.
"Its okay. its okay. We will leave them off." I say as I settle myself closer to her. "What is it, my sweet?"
"They have come back..." she whispers her legs pulled, arms wrapped around them. " Are you sure?" I can feel her looking up at me.
"Never been more sure of anything" I say as I reach out and touch her face.
"I can't do this to you." she said through her laboured breaths.
I wrap my arms around her and pull her close to me. "I am here."
I feel her body relax just a bit, her head now laying on my shoulder.
