"I met Shade today" she whispered, knowing well that he was still awake.
His voice vibrated in his chest "Oh you finally acknowledged him"
"Whatever does that mean?" she asked looking up to meet his eyes, he placed a kiss on her forehead.
"It means you believed someone was in the walls and you came to terms with it, maybe even talked to it" he clarified to her making her nod.
"Yes, I thought about it" she confessed.
"Shade is just like that, he cannot come out in your presence if you have not acknowledged him" his fingers played with the strands of her on her lower back.
"He said your mother gave him to you" she mumbled her eyes closed.
