MADELEINE

I had gotten a short nap when I woke up, but I felt more awake now. So I stood up

and walked downstairs to get something to drink. Mom was there, but Blaise was nowhere to be seen. Maybe he was in his room or had gone for a walk.

"Hey, mom," I say, hugging her, and she hugs me back.

"Hey, sweetheart. The doctor's assistant is up in Juliette's room. Just keeping track of how she was doing after the travel and all that." Mom said, and I smiled.

Nicely done, Gina, I am thinking to myself. To say it is to check up on Juliette so no one gets suspicious.

"That is nice of her. I will go up there and see what she says." I say and smile.

"Okay. Just dong disturb her work." Mom says.

"I won't, I promise," I say and walk upstairs.

I carefully open the door and see Gina jumping from the bed. But she relaxes when she sees it is me and sits down next to Juliette again. I saw the change as soon she sat next to her. For a second, her eyes showed signs of life again.
