The Sway and Slide of Love novel Chapter 620

Noelle didn't know where she was. All she could see was the vast expanse of white. She didn't know what this place was or why she was here.

Then, she heard Rosie's voice. "Mommy, I'm here. Come find me."

The cheerful voice snapped Noelle out of her confusion. Right… She needed to find Rosie. But where was she?

They had played hide-and-seek many times before. But Rosie never had much patience and would often peek out from her hiding spot to check on Noelle.

Noelle always spotted her immediately. But to play along, she would pretend not to see her, spinning around exaggeratedly while asking, "Where's my little Rosie?"

Every time, Rosie would giggle with delight, and when Noelle finally found her, she would laugh and say, "Oh, Mommy, you're so silly! You couldn't even find me!"

But this time, Noelle truly couldn't find her. She kept calling Rosie's name.

She could still hear Rosie's voice. "Mommy, come find me! Hurry!"

"Where are you? Rosie, come out, okay? Don't scare me like this. I can't find you!" Noelle screamed until she was hoarse.

But this time, there was no response from Rosie.

Noelle's voice trembled even more. "Rosie! Can you hear me? Rosie!"

Still, no one answered.

All Noelle could see was the endless white snow. The whiteness suddenly reminded her of the hospital. When Rosie was sick, Noelle had spent countless hours staring at the white ceilings and walls, praying over and over.

Back then, she had sworn to herself that if Rosie recovered, she would never leave her side again. She would stay with her, no matter what.

But now, Rosie was gone.

"Rosie…" Noelle was flailing her limbs around, her eyes snapping open.
