No Title #4
Cold. She felt cold; jolting up out of the darkness of her dream. That dream - that nightmare - why did it have to come now? Two years she'd been graced with dreamless sleep. Why did this dream choose to surface in her mind again;playing it's ugly scene from a place where no one should return. She lifted her hand up to her face and brushed away the sweat. She brought her other hand up to her face and hid within them as her mind reeled. He beat me that morning...said I'd gone to bed too early. Of course he was drunk she thought. She slid her hands down her face and let her fingers brush over it. The thought brought a sudden chill that spread throughout her body. An involuntary shiver racked through her. "You okay?" Kay's voice rang out through the personal vacuum Rose had created. "I'm fine..." she turned to look at her little sister's face. "Are you absolutely sure?" Kay questioned. Her head was slightly titled in curiousity and a hint of concern could be seen in the midst of her seafoam eyes. "Absolutely" Rose turned to stare out of the conveniently placed window and stared at the deserted wasteland beyond "Is it lunch yet?" she asked boredly "Yeah, I'll be back in a minute" Kay walked to the door and took one last glance at her sister before leaving the room.
