UNKNOWN POV

The morning sun cuts through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

I pick up my phone from the nightstand my thumb hovers on the screen then I dial.

    LEAH'S POV Knock! Knock!I tapped on Sophie's door gently. No response.I tapped gently. Again. Still no response. Then I pushed the door and walked in. I could hear her in the shower, singing at the top of her voice. I couldn't help smiling. I love a peaceful and happy family. I sat on the bed. Waiting for her to finish. I took that moment to admire her room.I love the details of her room. Purple girlies will go the extra length to look purple. Her room is beautiful. I'm jealous. But I don't think I would trade my neutral-colored room for a purple, bubbly room. Her bed was neatly made. And her clothes were nowhere in view. She is just as meticulous as Mom.
