Chapter Twenty Seven

Sophie

I woke up alone. I threw up the covers and realized I had on my pajama shorts, which I couldn't remember putting on. I sat down abruptly, shocked and embarrassed because I knew Raphael had dressed me and probably bathed me too, considering I didn't stink of vomit.

I checked around, noticing there was no dent on his pillow, which told me he had been awake for some time. The house was silent, but I knew Gabs, Nonna, Flora, and probably either Bruno or Romano were somewhere in the house. I found it strange that Raphael always left one of them with us even though I could clearly see how bored they were just sitting around doing nothing.
