Enlightening (1)

Emily looked blankly at her hand see nothing. After the door was closed, the study was dark, and she could not see anything.

"Mr. Vincent?"

She tried to find the switch on the wall but failed. She touched a cool hand. She was so frightened that she cried out in a low voice.

Emily was held by that hand and she fell into Vincent's arms. Vincent chuckled in the darkness and said, "What are you doing here if you're so afraid?"

Emily relieved and responded, "What are you standing here for?"

"Waiting for you." Vincent hugged her and rested his chin on her head.

Emily lay in his arms and muttered softly, "What if I didn't come?"

"But you're here, right?" When Emily heard Vincent's low voice, she could not help but smile. She said, "Mr. Vincent."

"What?"

Emily was about to speak, but she realized that the study room had a heater.

"Rex! He lied to me!" she snapped.

"Yes, he lied to you," Vincent replied.

"I'm going to beat him up tomorrow," Emily said, waving her little fists.
