I thought I knew her every look but, in this one, her lips were tense and her shoulders were pulled back. Her fingers were tense, but then she turned and looked down upon me. I tracked Maddie as she stood still, her back turned to me. The first person to ever care since my mama. Maddie was the first person ever to want me to be warm. Another new feeling burst into my stomach. Maddie laid it over me, but she didn’t touch me. I nodded my head, and braced for the material on my body. Maddie moved to stand above me, and said, “Use this blanket, for me? Please…”
But I couldn’t think why I had to be cold right now. I’d always been cold in my room as a kid, and then in the cellar. I tried to find an answer for why I should be cold, but I couldn’t. “There is no need.” Her words confused me.
