To Understand

Althaia

I jolted up in a sitting position, feeling my heart beat faster, and looked at Damiano with wide eyes. Fear and panic took over my body. Damiano sat up, his brows furrowed with concern.

“Breathe, Althaia.” He reminded me, and I drew in a shaky breath.

“She’s home early, and–and you’re here!” I suddenly realized, now feeling the blood drain from my face.

“I need you to calm down, baby.” Damiano placed his hands on my cheeks, and I immediately clung onto his arms as I felt myself panicking like the day before she left. “Slow down… breathe… that’s it…” He guided, and I closed my eyes and focused on steadying my breathing to calm down my hammering heart.

I kept listening to his soothing voice, focusing on the way his thumbs were lightly caressing my cheeks and slowly calming me down.

“I’m okay.” I let out a breath and opened my eyes again.

I groaned as I plopped down on the bed again, wondering why she was home so early and if she had calmed down. Or if we were going to fight again
