That night, I ended up sleeping at home again, on the couch as usual.
When I stirred in the middle of the night, I found Betty still lying on the floor beside the couch.
She seemed cold in her sleep, curled up tightly, while the only blanket in the house was draped over me.
Without a word, I gently moved the blanket over Betty, then headed to the bathroom.
When I returned, her body had relaxed, her breathing more even and calm.
I sighed, pondering for a moment before gently lifting Betty from the floor.
Slowly, I carried her to the bedroom and laid her down on the bed.
Throughout this, she never woke; she was just too exhausted.
After placing Betty on the bed, I turned and walked back to the living room to continue my night on the couch.
When I woke up the next morning, I lazily turned over, my hand dangling off the couch, only to touch something soft.
I instantly became more alert and, opening my eyes, I saw Betty's figure.
