“Baby girl, are you okay? I made tea,” Walter knocked and called out to me from the other side of the door.

“Come in.” I replied. I quickly wiped my face with my shirt. Walter walked in carrying a mug.

“Oh my sweet girl,” he put the mug down before rushing to sit with me. He pulled me into his arms and held me tight.

“How are you feeling?” He asked me and I shrugged.
