Mia was fast asleep when she felt a hand stroking her cheeks in her sleep. The hand was warm and soothing and she unconsciously leaned into the person's touch. Without opening her eyes, she murmured softly thinking the person was her Ice cube, "You came back like you said."
"Mia?" Called the person. And Mia's eyes immediately flew opened only to see that the person by her bed side wasn't the man she'd thought but her mother.
"Oh, mom, it's you." She exclaimed as she pushed herself into a sitting position while using her fingers to rub the sleep off her eyes. She had fallen asleep last night waiting for her mother's arrival and now that she looked around, she noticed it was morning. Mia glanced back at her mother and a startled cry escaped her lips when she noticed her mother's face.
