Velina nodded followed him, her steps silent. She listened to him speak. "I might just leave when I wake up tomorrow, I really don't want to be a burden.' when they stopped, she looked into the bedroom. It was a lot bigger than her house at home. She was never good being in such open spaces while sleeping, it made her feel a little unsafe, but she didn't say anything. "Thank you." she turned around to say to him, her red eyes shining brightly. They didn't seem to dim, even if the light dimmed.

Velina sat on the bed, putting her bag on the black nightstand. She sighed and fell back on the bed, her heart thumping. It was funny how sometimes you didn't know how nervous you were until you sat down or laid down. She closed her eyes, hearing her heart thump in her ears. She began singing softly, just whispering the lines. "Everytime I try to fly, I fall. Without my wings, I feel so small. I guess I need you baby..." it was a song her mother sang to her as an infant and that memory stuck...

Velina curled up on the bed, the covers over her shoulders. If anyone saw her right now, they would have thought she was in pain because of her position. She'd gone to sleep in pain from her father, her body had gotten used to the sleeping position. Within minutes, the young woman fell asleep.
