HARPERS POV:
I layed awake on my bed that felt like for hours, staring at the ceiling as my thoughts rushed through my head. I tried to sleep, but no matter how hard I tried I always found myself eyes wide awake.
The dark purple almost black circles around my eyes became more obvious over the past few days. Mom knew I wasn't sleeping, she was trying her best to help me, but I couldn't let her in, I couldn't accept her help, I just knew it wouldn't work.
I stumbled out of bed with the tiredness that followed my every footstep, it felt as if I was dragging my body to stay awake. It felt like a heavy burden that weighed me down like a heavy backpack, I had to push through and stay awake.
I got to my Mom's room as I slowly opened her door, not wanting to wake her up. I looked at her alarm clock... 1am.
I climbed into my Mom's bed needing some comfort, I saw her starting to wake slightly.
I felt bad that I had disturbed her, that I had woken her up.

"Hey rockstar" Mom said with a sleepy tone.
"Sorry if I disturbed you" I said trying to get out of the bed, but being pulled back by Mom's hug."It's okay Harper, really I don't mind." Mom said as she embraced me into a hug.
"I couldn't sleep" I said quietly as I accepted the warm cuddles my Mom gave me.
"I know, but I'm here just close your eyes and try get some rest" Mom said as she played with my hair.I buried myself into the soft cuddles of my Mom, as I got comfortable I shut my eyes and felt the soft whispers and massages my Mom gave me.

I woke up at 8am, Mom walked into the bedroom with a tray of breakfast."Breakfast in bed for two, I made pancakes!" She said placing the tray of food on the bed.
"Thank you, but I just feel too tired to eat really I'm not that hungry" I said as I buried myself deeper into the bed covers."Harper you need to eat, then you can have a little rest" Mom said with a firm voice.
"Okay,okay" I said as I sat up and accepted the plate of pancakes.

"Harper I have this presentation on the recent surgery, let's just say I was a nominated for a Catherine Fox award" Mom said as she finished up her breakfast"Omg that's great" I said with excitement.
"Yes it is and I kind of decided to buy us dresses for it" Mom said as she pulled out a shopping bag from her closet."Matching dresses" She said as she held up the matching dresses, they wasn't all completely matching but they were similar colour.
Mom's was this long navy flowy dress with clear long sleeves, it was rather elegant:
Mine was a short navy blue dress with puffed princess sleeves, almost Disney princess like.
