Chapter 15: Chapter 15

Skylar's POV

I woke up hastily at the sound of the coffeemaker buzzing. It almost felt like someone had driven a tractor right into my house.

Believe me, it was a horrible sound to wake up to.

I sat up groggily on the couch, rubbing my eyes and pulling my hair away from my face simultaneously.

"Dad?" I asked tiredly.

Watching my dad making a cup of coffee for himself the first thing after waking up was something I wished to wake up to every day. It felt nice and refreshing to see my parents in the mornings especially, something that almost never happened.

I let out a loud yawn and noticed that he was dressed up in a black suit; his work clothes. Which either meant that he had just changed and was leaving, or he had just come back here. In this case, it was definitely the latter.

Dad glanced at me from over his shoulder and gave me a small smile. "Oh, you're awake. Why were you even sleeping on the couch?"
