Caden opened the door to Alicia, who asked quietly, “Is Ciara asleep? Jolie is busy, but it’s time for Ciara’s medication.”

Caden took her hand, shaking his head. “No, she’s not.” Alicia, sensing the sadness in his voice and the somberness on his face, realized he was troubled. She did not withdraw her hand but followed him to Ciara’s bedside.
