Christmas Day - 5:23am
Ever since the situation with Serena throwing a brick through our window, Talia has been really on edge which is seriously unlike her. Normally, she'd be down with finding Serena, killing her ass, and calling it a day, but not this time. Something was wrong and I could sense it.
My eyes fluttered open as I looked next to me, seeing Bella still fast asleep, but Talia was nowhere in sight. I slowly sat up, noticing that Talia was sitting on the windowsill, watching as the snow fell. After getting our window fixed, we decided to celebrate Christmas over at Ms. Ilene's house, which was perfectly fine, since Serena probably didn't know where she lived. On top of that, it was the only place Talia felt truly safe and I wanted to make sure that she got exactly what she wanted.
Climbing out of bed, I made sure Bella was secure before walking over to where Talia was, wrapping my arms around her.
"You okay baby?" I asked her, placing a kiss on her head.
"Yeah I'm okay." She sighed.
"I'm not convinced. What's wrong?"
"What's not wrong? Everything that's happening is what I wanted to avoid since I gave birth. First it was Jude, Biggie, and Sam, then it was Jocelyn, and now Serena. I don't think I can take another day of this." She stressed.
"I understand how you feel, but we're going to get Serena's ass and end all of this once and for all." I told her. Though I wasn't one hundred percent sure that things would go as planned, but I was sure that I would do any and everything to keep my family safe.
"I have a bad feeling, Dean. You know, as well as everyone else, that when I get these feelings they're never wrong."
"Yeah I know, but we got this baby. Everything is going to be fine. Okay? I promise."
"Don't make promises you can't keep." She grumbled, glaring at me.
"Okay, there's obviously something else going on with you because I have never seen you this vulnerable before."
