Sunlight peered inside the room and landed on the two sleeping figures on the bed. One of them was a small boy who was wearing pajamas, the other, a chubby girl wearing a black, one-piece, night dress.
The boy was in a deep sleep, and was enveloped in a protective embrace by the girl sleeping beside him. Minutes turned into hours, as the sun slowly rose into the sky.
Abbie's eyelids fluttered. A few seconds later, she slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she saw was the boy sleeping soundly in her arms. His face looked so peaceful that Abbie wasn't able to stop herself from giving him a kiss on the forehead.
She was still half-asleep, and her action was the usual greeting she gave Alex every morning. After stifling a yawn, she finally had time to glance around the room and realized something. This was not her room!
