Mirelah;
I smile when I hear the chirping of birds outside and feel the warm sun on my skin. It's a new day…
I slowly blink my eyes open, and my gaze lands on the window and the sunlight seeping in through the curtain.
It's my first morning as a married woman. Why am I so excited?! Also, Kealith did nothing during the night. I slept like a baby.
The entire night was so peaceful. He was worried for nothing.
I roll to my other side to see him, but the space beside me is empty. I quickly sit up in confusion.
Did I sleep late?? Did he sneak out of the room? Did… My thoughts come to a screeching stop when I see him, and my heart dies in my chest.
"Kealith?!" The shocked breath escapes me as I take in the state he's in.
He's lying on the floor at the foot of the bed, his back to me, shirtless and curled on his side like a wounded puppy.
I rush off the bed in fear as I kick the duvet off me. What happened?! When and why did he get on the floor?
