It was like nothing Cadence had ever felt before. Not when broke her femur jumping from the jungle gym when she was three; not when she gave birth to her daughter in a taxi cab. This pain was something different. Something new.
She doubled over, gasping. Her lungs burned.
Then as suddenly as it struck, the pain vanished.
"What's happening to me?" Cadence whispered. She kept her eyes closed; took a mental inventory of her body.
From the living room her husband, Josh, heard her.
"You ok?" he asked.
"I don't know," Cadence said, her voice shaking. "Something's...different."
From down the hall, 6-month-old Daisy shrieked, her nap over in a thunderclap. The force of the cry slammed Cadence; the reverberations of her daughter's voice in her brain as though Daisy had burrowed in deep.
As though they were suddenly one person.
Cadence slapped her hands over her ears, instinctively. Josh's voice melted with Daisy's cries but she couldn't make out the words.
What's wrong, she thought, what's wrong.
Then everything went dark.
