Chapter 10

At some point during the night, we must have made it upstairs because I woke up in bed. For a second, I wondered if it was all a dream and if today was a visiting day for Abbey. I looked beside me and she was not in bed, so I sat up quickly and tried to assess what was reality. I did not see any sign to suggest that she was here, except that I was naked in bed and I never slept naked. I smiled when I looked down at my breasts and saw her teeth mark on my skin.

“Abbs?” I called but got no answer. “Baby?”

I got out of bed and slipped into a robe, then I checked the bathroom. She was not there. I quickly did a rapid version of my morning routine then returned to the bedroom and I saw Abbey coming through the door with a tray.

“You’re ruining my breakfast-in-bed plan, G. Get back into bed,” Abbey said and I smiled.

“I’m sorry, baby,” I said and climbed back in. “You made breakfast?”

“I have to start practicing,” she said and placed the tray over me. “You’ll be providing for our family and I will take care of you and the children.”

“That sounds wonderful, honey,” I laughed and picked up the fork. I cut into the egg and brought it to my mouth.

“How is it? This is my first time cooking in fifteen years.”

“It’s delicious, baby. You’re very smart. There are some things you will never forget, and there are things you’ll figure out as you go along. Your brain will go back for all the things it stored.”

“Am I dreaming?”

“I thought that way when I woke up and you weren’t in bed.”

“Scary, isn’t it? If we should suddenly wake up.”

“Don’t even joke about that,” I said and she chuckled. I put a toast to her mouth and she bit into it. “Thank you for breakfast, honey, and I’m really happy to have you home.”

“I’m happy to be home. This house is beautiful.”

“I’m happy you like it. I made a lot of decisions based on what I think you would want because I didn’t want you to have anything to do when you came home,” I said as I ate.

“We really don’t have a lot of time to waste, G. I want us to have today, but while we’re relaxing and catching up, we need to plan…”

“Nope. There will be no planning today. Today, we will talk about what’s going on in my life and you’ll tell me what went on in yours,” I said.

“I don’t want to go back. I did my time and now I’m out. I don’t want to remember…”

“But you promised me stories.”

“Those stories will add nothing to our lives. When they were happening, I was excited to share them with you and tried to store them all for when I got out, but now that I’m here, I don’t want to waste any time on that. If something pops into my
