By Way of the Rose
“She yawned as she raised up in bed and thought about her dream. She quickly got up and dressed. Had her dream been a sign? Her heart beat hard against her chest, so hard in fact, she could feel it in her ears. She ran down to John's room, looked in, and saw that he was gone. She ran down the hall to Mrs. Jenkins’ room.
“Whatever is the matter dear? You look like you've seen a ghost!”
“John, he's not in his room. Have you seen him?”
“I've just woke up myself. I'm not even dressed.”
“I have to fi...nd him.” Sarah rushed away. She ran to Mrs. Ruby's but she was asleep when Sarah knocked and hadn't seen anyone. She asked Tad, but she hadn't seen him either. Had he stayed in the parlor all night? Sarah rushed down the stairs. She burst through the doors to find John curled up on one of the sofas. Her heart dropped and she felt herself began to tremble all over with relief. She breathed deeply before she punched him awake.
“What is it?” He looked confused.
“What are you doing down here?”MoreLess
