Sisterly behaviour- II

Opening my eyes, I breathed in a deep breath. With the candles lit in the room, I knew it was still dark outside. Waking up with the schedule of the vampires, I found myself being awake at night, more than I found myself waking up during the day.

It was something I could not bother to think about.

Catherine was sleeping next to me peacefully. I had checked before falling asleep, whether it had changed or not. She had dressed my sister in thicker clothes and covered her with a thick blanket. Diwal had been inside this room, watching my sister and left when I came in.

She was fine. I patted her hair lovingly. My little sister, someone I had always treated like she was my child so that she would never feel the absence of a mothers love. What had she been through..

I pulled away from her and got out of the bed slowly so I could not disturb her. There was a stool at the end of the bed that had a thick shawl kept on it. I smiled, that was Irene.
