Chapter 92

• I’m not sure how long I lay back in the large tub. I didn’t even drink the wine, just started at the wall, letting the water relax me. I tried not to, but couldn’t help thinking, just how different my life would have been if my father had found us. If I’d lived my entire life with loving parents… it was overwhelming, the difference I would have experienced. It had almost got to me when I snapped out of it, refusing to dwell on it a moment more. It was not my parents’ fault. It was no one’s fault that the epidemic happened.
• After soaking in deep contemplation of the things I’d learned, I got dressed and decided I’d kept the others waiting long enough. I hadn’t even realized it was well into the night realm’s shift. I wasn’t tired at all; my mind wouldn’t allow for sleep anytime soon. The entire day had been a complete haze of events.
• Opening the door, I stopped abruptly and looked at Sith standing across the hall. “You are a welcome sight. I have no idea how to get to the dining room.”
