They walked ahead side by side. “Had a good sleep?” he asked.

 

She smiled sweetly at him. “Not bad.”

 

 

 

They went downstairs, and Elise looked around, but Danny was nowhere to be found. “Danny should be taking me to school today. Where is he?”

Elise wasn’t going to object to that. “Sure.” She went to the dining room for her breakfast. It was a simple one, which was her favorite. Once she was done, she went into Alexander’s car.
