Chapter 10: Shopping

Then he was gone. "Bye mommy," Anna called from another room. I didn't reply. Had that just happened, or was it my imagination… it had to have happened. I don't have that good of an imagination. Alice came down and got me out of my shock, and then she insisted we went shopping. The shopping trip was… let me just say this, when we got back to her house it was already time to go to sleep. I was so tired that I didn't want to go back to my house so Alice said she would call Charlie for me and that I could go to bed. She wasn't tired at all because we just got the best deal ever on a designer shirt!!!!! Yay!! Ugh, I need my sleep. I got a shower and then went to Edward's room. "Hello," an angel's voice greeted me as soon as I walked in the dark room. "How was your day," he asked. I was so tired I just moaned. "Shopping," he guessed. "Uh-huh," I said/groaned. "Well then you should get some sleep," he replied. I went over to the couch where I could see the silhouette of my- our daughter. "Why don't you sleep with me in the bed tonight? It is more comfortable," he asked. Without replying I turned around and headed toward the bed. I got under the blankets, and was asleep before my head hit the pillow.
