As the meadow unveiled its beauty, I paused, my back leaning against a tree. Gasping for breath, my gaze eventually settled upon Rebecca. Her back was turned, fixed upon the coursing stream. She perched upon a rock, her ebony tresses cascading freely.
Running quietly, I arrived and stood next to her. She stared ahead, seemingly unaffected by my presence. Lowering my gaze to her appearance, I crave for a hint of a smile or a glint of light within her eyes.
Alas, no one was following me, and the weight in my heart deepened, my stomach coiling in knots.
She’s staring at the creek, without any signs of emotion. This place held significance within her memory, a hidden fragment resurfacing.

ARTEMYI eased myself onto the edge of the seat, settling Rebecca gently onto my lap. "Just take a deep breath. You're safe now. Don't rush it. Breathe slowly. That's it, Angel.

Swiftly, I elevated myself into a sitting position, my eyes grappling with the persistent morning radiance as I blinked away the remnants of sleep.Emerging from the covers, I navigated my way toward the crib stationed nearby, only to discover it vacant, devoid of the presence I anticipated.
