When people described miracles they often spoke along regular lines, things like, it is a miracle that he made it through college, or it was a miracle, his cancer was cured overnight, or it is a miracle that they have a baby after trying for so long. That was what people thought of, when they thought of miracles. But for the longest time, Derek, had anyone asked him, he would have said that there were no such things as miracles. But now he knew better, afterall he had experienced a miracle himself.
His miracle was being able to sleep through the night, and he had experienced the miracle by sleeping next to Emily, but just a few short weeks after showing him that miracles did happen, she was gone, and he had no idea how to bring her back. He had given up on ever seeing her again, and then wonder of wonders, he had found her.
