She was the beautiful dream I had been searching for. The one to wake me up. ~Atticus.  Cole I woke up with a banging in my head and one on my bedroom door. “Go the fuck away!” I grumbled but instead of going away, whoever was on the other side of the door entered my room.I slipped my head under the blanket, snippets of last night coming back to me and I groaned inwardly.

“According to Greek mythology, humans were originally created with four arms, four legs and a head with two faces. Fearing their power, Zeus split them into two separate parts, condemning them to spend their lives in search of their other halves.” Cole As Maddox and Mrs Carter left the kitchen, leaving me alone with her, I turned around to look at her.

A new baby is like the beginning of all things— wonder, hope, a dream of possibilities.~ Eda J. LeShan Violet We waited outside the hospital room with the rest of the family. Nurses went and came out of the room in hurry as they did the doctor’s bidding. Dominic was the most stressed one as he raked his fingers through his hair from time to time and paced the corridor. Mrs Carter sat with Mr Carter, his arm was protectively wrapped around her which reminded me of how Cole had helped me just now.My fingers were tightly knotted around each other as I sat there with Kiara on my one side and Cole on the other.
