Abbigail's POV After calming Shawn down, I pulled Melanie aside. I'm the only one she opens up to and the only one who can really read her. Beth still tries to figure out how I do it. She thinks I read her facial expressions, but I don't. Being blind for so long my other senses adapted. I haven't been able to turn it off since my sight was restored. I'm still able to hear people's emotions in the voices. It's how I've been able to tell when Melanie is upset. I sat her down on the living room couch and give her a knowing look. She lets out a sigh and tears fill her eyes. "I hate that you read me so well," she chokes quietly as I take her hands. "You've mastered the poker face, but your voice still gives you away," I say softly as the tears fall from her eyes. "You're scared about something." "Both of you are pregnant and Shawn and I have come close to death in the last few years. Who will be there for you, Beth and the kids if somethi
