Chapter Thirty-eight
Strange dark images flit in front of your eyes.
The fear and despair of the events you continually re-witness wash over you and you can feel the perspiration streak down your face and neck.
But you can't seem to make it stop.
The images come to the ultimate culmination, just as you know they would from past experience, and you awake with a scream sitting up in bed.
"Can I help?" the male voice asks, the arm belonging to it tightening around your waist.
"No, I'm just going to go check the other room." You reply as you smooth the wild hair from around your face.
"Call if you need me" is the sleepy reply.
Climbing out of bed you step tentatively onto the cold tiled floor beneath.
Testing you feet you rise slowly and walk across the room and into the adjoining washroom. Brushing out your hair and washing you face brings a soft calm that you readily accept, choosing not to dwell on the memories from three years earlier.
Staring into the mirror at yourself you see what everyone has observed, you seem shallow. A different person, your eyes hold all the fear and horror from those events.
You thought you had hid it well.
Sighing you turn away from the mirror and head down the hall. The familiar route to the small bedroom down the hall has become ingrained in your memory, more than it should as this night's events are nothing new.
Pausing at the soft curtain door you listen for the soft breathing sounds beyond.
Hearing the soft noises of your daughter you enter the room gently and observe her as she sleeps.
Satisfied that she is safe you settle into the worn chair in the corner. Pulling the soft blanket that lies there around yourself, you settle in for the rest of the night.
This seems the only way to have a restful sleep.
You sigh at the thought as more pleasant memories carry you off into oblivion.

I know that was short but I uploaded the next chapter as well.
It just seemed like a good place to end it.
Let me know if you're still interested and if my story is worth continuing, I know its been a LONG break but im re committed after being settled into uni.
Read and Review.
