Robert sat up in bed, straining to hear any cries again. Not that he
wouldn't go, but something about it felt off. Or maybe it was just the
fact that he wasn't used to this sort of thing. Robert liked being the
hero, the one to banish Corry's nightmares and fears, but it had been a
long time since he had done anything like that.
Reaching out he rested a hand on his wife's shoulder, aiming to take
strength and comfort from her. She was always so strong and- and something
felt off. Virginia was tense and trembling ever so slightly. If it
weren't so warm in the house he would have thought she was cold.
