Child in Time

CHAPTER 27 Lily’s POV

Warning: Violence

“S-sit here.” I moved the chair so that it’s beside the bed. He sat on it and crossed his legs. I lay on the edge of the bed and covered my entire body with the duvet.

“What are you doing? Are you sleepy?” He asked and tried to remove the cover from me.

“N-no. I-I want to t-talk to you th-this way. J-just please h-hold my hand under t-the duvet b-but I d-don’t want y-you to s-see my f-face.” I peek through the cover.

He looked at me with concern and sat back on the chair. He extends his hand for me to hold. “Fine but please tell me everything” he sighed. I smiled and took his hand. I covered my entire body and laid down on the bed while holding his hand with both of my hands.

I’m sweating from head to toe and my entire body is shaking. I tried my best to control my breathing and squeezed his hand.
