Neil watched her stood up and walked over towards him. She stopped in front of him and he was able to see her face under the dimmed light. "Why are you not asleep yet?"

Hearing his tone of voice, Edith realized that Neil was in a bad mood. Suddenly, she hesitated and wonder if she should leave him alone.
