Saving The Sun

Cottage

Toby's pov

It was finally morning. A weekend, so there's no work. The only thing I had to do was go out to the cabin and check on October. Make sure she doesn't need anything.

That could wait though, because I had my beautiful wife in my arms. She was laying across my chest, and had her arm wrapped around me. Then the doorbell rang. I sighed, a little bit flustered that I couldn't stay in bed with her any longer. The doorbell rang again.

"Mmm... gonna get that baby." Kathryn's voice sounded a bit tired.

"Yea I'll get it." I said sliding out from underneath her. Then she quickly hopped up and ran out the door.

"HA! HA! I MADE YOU GET UP!" She yelled from the living room. I sighed and shook my head and started to get dressed. I heard the door open, and a worried voice was a bit louder than Kathryn's more calmer voice. The door shut and the other woman's voice continued as Kathryn tried to comfort her.

Then I heard footsteps come down the hallway and to the room. I looked up to see Kathryn, worry in her look.

"Whats wrong? Who is it?" I asked confused.

"Cybil. She's freaking out." She replied with a worried voice. "I think the roller coaster of shit is going back uphill, and I can't get her to calm down."

"I'll handle it." I smiled pecking her cheek as I passed her. I walked down the hallway and to the living room where Cybil was on the couch fiddling with the shag couch pillow. I sighed and walked over to her. "Hey."

"Hi." Her voice shook.

"What's wrong?" I asked calmly.

"I cant do this anymore. You know I've known since your wedding, and you told me that- that it would be best to just let her walk and figure things out. The problem is, is that I have no idea where she is, if she's okay, I don't even know if she's moved one, if she's dead or alive... I don't know anything, and I'm really scared Toby. I'm just really scared." She sobbed, and I put my arms around her to comfort her. I looked to Kathryn. She nodded and went into the kitchen and made a glass of tea, then she walked over to me and handed me a glass.

"Its alright. Here, you need to drink something." I said handing her the tea to drink. She nodded and took a drink and set it on the table. "Good, are we calm now?"

"Y-yeah. I think so. I just miss her so much." She sniffled, and I rubbed her back.

"Cybil, you don't need to worry about her. Okay. She's fine where she is." Kathryn assured.

"How do you know?" She asked. Her eyes shot between the two of us.

"Because we know where she is, Cybil. I check on her every weekend to make sure she's got enough food and stuff. She's alright." I replied. She sighed, and I felt her relax a bit. She nodded. "Now, I could take you to her. I'm gonna go check on her today. I think it's finally time that you two talk things out anyway. Alright."

"Please. I need her." Cybil let out a sob.

"I'm going to go get dressed real fast, and I'll take you to Tobi. Alright." I said.

"Okay." She nodded, wiping her eyes with a tissue.

I smiled and stood up, then walked back into the bedroom. Kathryn had followed me.

"Do you want me go with you?" she asked throwing on a pair of jeans and and a black tanktop with my green and black plaid hoodie that had a gray hood. I walked over to her after I put on a pair of jeans and my gray hoodie and my black shoes.
