Penelope's pov
I woke up at the first ring of my alarm this morning. I didn't have the usual struggle with my body and surprisingly, I didn't have the same nightmare last night. I slept so peaceful all through the night. Last night after our talk, Adrian and I drove our separate ways. It took a lot of convincing for him to let me drive back alone, I love how doting he can be. After I got home, we spoke till the early hours of the night before going to sleep. In the last twelve hours, I have smiled and giggled more than I have in long time. I hummed my way all through preparing for work today, I put a little more effort into how I look today wearing a pant trouser instead of my usual gowns, I curled my hair and put on a little makeup. I made my way down the stairs still humming to a tune I can't remember what song I picked it from.
"Good morning Charity" I said to her with a bright smile. She furrowed her eyes at me, like she was seeing someone else.
