Even she felt sick after all that rocking. Zeph wasn’t feeling much better.

Nicole fought back the urge to throw up and headed upstairs to rest. Zeph carried Poppy to her room and turned on a diffuser with lavender oil to help her sleep.

Nicole took a quick shower, changed into pajamas, and lay down. She couldn’t stop wondering what tomorrow would bring. She tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

Zeph lay beside her and pulled her into his arms. What’s wrong?”

“What do you think happens now?” she asked.

Zeph didn’t know. He could only cling to the belief that the disasters would end someday. Without that hope, he wasn’t sure he could find the strength to keep going.

They had no answers. All they could do was keep going.

Nicole did the math. The disasters lasted nine years so far, and her storage space banked two hours of usable time each day. After subtracting all the time they used over the years, only eighty-six days remained.

Less than three months.

They had no idea how much longer the disasters would last or what was coming next. They could use up every hour in the storage space before any of it was over.

Even a few seconds could mean the difference between life and death. They needed to make every minute

count.

They set an alarm, giving themselves just four hours to sleep inside.

Eventually, they would get used to the seasickness. At least they were alive to feel it.

They needed proper rest, so Nicole turned on a diffuser, too.

When the alarm rang, Zeph let her sleep a little longer. He carried Poppy into the escape pod, then came back to dress Nicole and carry her in, buckling her into her harness.

Nicole blinked sleepily and waved a hand, bringing them out of her storage space.
