Turning Back Time to Save You
Sophia's face lit up with joy as she quickly turned to leave, but I softly called her name.
She looked back, and I gave her a warm, sunny smile.
"I'm sorry, Sophia.
"I wish you peace, happiness, and all your heart's desires from now on."
She keenly sensed something was wrong.
"Why do you sound like you're saying goodbye? I'm just going to check on Ethan. I have something I want to tell you. Wait for me to come back."
With that, she turned and left. There was now less than half an hour remaining before I would have to return.
