Gravity (Artistic Pricks Ink book 1)
“Stepping around the stove, I see her curl into a ball onto the sofa facing away from me. She cries softly as I strain to hear the words she speaks aloud. I can barely make out what she is saying, but what I do hear is enough. She didn’t just lose her possessions. This isn’t about her safety, in her mind, either. Ki lost a part of her mother that she was holding on to.Turning off the stove top, I move the skillet away from the heat, and go to her once I have noticed her breathing has evened out.... Whimpering in her sleep, I pull her into my arms and carry her down the hall to the bedroom.
