Regina blinked her eyes, "But what if something unexpected happens?"
Francis' response was firm and unequivocal, "There won't be anything unexpected. Trust me."
Deep down, Regina wanted to ask if he would rush to her side just as quickly if she and those two women were in trouble at the same time. But asking that would make her seem petty.
She didn't want to burden her dad, who was already working so hard, with such a question. Plus, she feared hearing his answer or seeing any hint of hesitation.
Francis kept soothing Regina until she finally drifted off into a deep sleep. Perhaps it was the comfort of having her father by her side, she slept without nightmares this time, waking only when the morning light crept through the curtains.
She woke up feeling unrealistic.
Francis had kept his promise and stayed by her side. Now he stood by the window, sipping a cup of coffee. Though not old, he was feeling the weight of the years. He had hardly slept last night and needed the caffeine to make it through the day.
"You're awake! Are you hungry? Shall I have breakfast brought up?" Francis said, his face lighting up as he approached her.
"Dad, you had a long night. Thank you." Regina said, appreciating his efforts.
"Taking care of my own daughter is no trouble at all. How about I get you some breakfast?" he suggested.
Regina nodded, and before Francis could call for a meal, there was a knock at the door.
They exchanged a knowing smile.
