Bab 47: A disturbing revelation

Carol found it difficult to sleep that night, as sleep practically eluded her. She tossed and turned on the bed, trying to get some shuteye, but it just wasn’t happening, no matter how much she tried to force herself. So, she got up and padded out of her room, trying to be as silent as possible, so as not to wake anybody up. The house was quiet, which was not a surprise, considering that it was already past two in the morning. Normally, she rarely found it difficult to sleep, but her mother never failed to bring out the worst in her and annoy her to no end.
