The sky had turned dark, as dark as Lisa's hair when Oscar's car pulled up in front of her house. The light in front was the only thing that illuminated the surrounding darkness. The night breeze that could make Oscar shiver with cold, greeted him as he got out of the car.
Lisa heard the door of the house being opened from outside when she had just come out of William's room. The boy didn't stop whining, he kept asking her to read him a fairy tale after changing into his pajamas. At first, Lisa only read a fairy tale from one of the books on the bookshelf in William's room. But when she closed the book, she saw her son's eyes were still wide open.
"Read the others, Mom." William pleaded.
Finally, Lisa got up from William's bed and picked up another fairy tale book. Even though her throat felt dry and she was starting to feel tired because this was the first time she had read 2 fairy tales at once, the woman still complied with her son's request.
