She stretched herself, and her first reaction was to reach out to touch the side. She wanted to hug the person next to her and act like a spoiled child, but she didn’t expect to touch a smooth bed sheet. Stunned for a moment, Evelyn tried left and right again, but it was still empty. Her face, hidden in the quilt, wrinkled.
