Bab 66: Empty Promises

Back at home, Jia fell asleep in Jim's lap. After making sure that she was in deep sleep, he placed her gently in the pillow and tucked her under the comforter. He went out and headed to the kitchen. He, then, picked up a chamomile tea bag, dipped it into a tea cup and placed it on top of a coffee table beside a window. It looked out into an empty lot of the subdivision. Old trees lined up at the borders, making it a darker and lonelier place at night.
