Syncopated Rhythm
“The next thing I knew I was waking up with the sun shining in the window, warming me. I looked down at the weight on my chest and Amber was curled up with her head on my chest. Her incredible hair was messy, and she was drooling a bit and it was quite possibly the most adorable thing I had ever seen.
Since she was still asleep I took the moment to look at her. Then I gently kissed the top of her head and slowly squirmed my way out from under her and laid her head on a pillow and pulled a blanket over her. I softly padded over to the desk beside the bed and started working. There was a dull ache in my heart because I wouldn't be able to visit mom this weekend, but at least I can get some things done.

Our stories are different but there was this underlying thread of loneliness that tied us together. My he...art already ached in anticipation of her imminent departure from my life in a couple weeks.MoreLess
