Chapter 115. Emotional Discovery II

I rested my head on my mom's lap while she gently stroked my head to make me feel better and help me fall asleep. She didn't ask me any questions or say anything, which was nice. I didn't really feel like talking. I was waiting anxiously for Cassian to come back. It had been more than an hour since he left with the police. Thanks to him, I found out the truth.
