Talia scoots around us as we head to the door, holds it open as we make our way through. It’s not until we cross the porch that she speaks. “We’re alive,” she whispers.
When I turn, her eyes are on the dark sky, the stars. Christopher’s arm tightens around me and for the first time in days I feel safe again.
I know this isn’t the end.
But for right now, this moment, it’s enough.
