The entire day was fully packed with activities that she fell asleep as soon as she had her back touched the mattress. When she's still pregnant, Hash would give her a bath and scrub her, then carry her to bed when she fell asleep. But she didn't have that kind of luxury and that made her miss him even more.
Hugh normally talked to her about how his day went by from a baby's point of view. She could hear his thoughts, but she wasn't able to fight the sleepiness she felt.
The next morning, Aris was banging on her door.
"Aunt Isabel! They arrested my dad, and he's on trial right now!"
It woke her up and in her groggy state of mind, her dreams and Aris were mixed up.
"He just needs to grind the garlic into paste-"
She has no comprehension of what she or he had said.
Good morning, big brother Aris. Can I join you for work today?
"No, Buddy, we had a big problem today and you're too young to join in."
