Nevaeh woke up to an empty bed,

She yawned as she sat up in bed, the duvet falling to her laps,

Touching the empty space beside her, seeing that it was slightly warm,

So she figured that he had left the room not too long ago,

And was probably somewhere in the house,

She also realized that she had been cleaned up, had clothes on her body and the bed covers had been replaced,

She smiled to herself as she put on her fluffy slippers before going ahead to look for him in the house,

                                                                         🕸️𓆩♡𓆪🕸️

"What are you doing here?"

"I was looking for somewhere peaceful to work" Miles answered calmly 

His back facing her as he arranged a desk in the corner,

Nevaeh walked up to him, wrapping her arms around his waist and placing her head on his broad back,

"You good, Mamí?" He asked,

She sighed in reply, snuggling into his back,

His hand moved towards the photo frame that was placed face down on the desk,

As he picked it, Nevaeh hit it out of his hands causing it to fall down, facing up, 

The protective glass shattered,

"I'm sorry" He whispered as she knelt down, picking up the glass shards,

"Let me help" He offered in a soft voice as he joined her on the floor,

"It's fine, I got this... Ahhh shit" She cursed as warm blood flowed out of the cut on her hand,

"I'll get the first aid box" Miles said as he made his way to stand up, before noticing that the wound had started to close up on it's own,

He gave her a weird look,

"It's fine, my body heals itself" She shrugged as she wiped the blood off,

"Oh" He mumbled as he joined her on the floor again, helping her clean up,

"I'm sorry" He apologized again as she threw the pieces of glass away,

"Quit saying sorry, what are you even sorry for Zay?" She asked as she turned to face him,

"I shouldn't have meddled in your family's affairs" He answered,

"You weren't even doing that" Nevaeh sighed, sitting on the bed,

"If you really think that's being meddlesome, then you really need to meet my aunt Mimi" She chuckled as he sat beside her,

"Besides, my family is your family too, Miles" She whispered, leaning on his shoulder,

"So why did you react to me touching the frame like that?" He inquired,

"Oh Miles, It wasn't you" She sighed,

"I just wasn't ready to see that picture anytime soon, I never even thought I'd ever wander into this room" She added,

"What's the history behind the picture?" He asked as he picked the frame up,

"Well, that's the last family picture we took before the family was ripped apart by death" She answered as he examined the picture,

"How old were you in this?" He asked,
