Sleep

In the silence that afternoon, the three of them fell asleep soundly as if there was no burden.

He has been enjoying his sleep these few days without any terror or pressure from his father. They could breathe freely, and the three of them were very happy to forget the problems they were facing at home for a moment.

Sometime later, it was getting dark in the afternoon, and the sun was setting,

It was as if someone tapped Hector on the shoulder; someone woke him from sleep.

Hector's eyes narrowed, and one closed as if he was looking with heavy eyes around the room.

It's dark here and there.

His vision was dark blue. He couldn't see anything. It was already dark, and the sunlight was no longer visible on the balcony. And all the lights still hadn't been turned on.

His eyes were fixed on the balcony window, which was still open. No sunlight entered their room like before; now, there was only darkness because the lights were still off, and none had been turned on.
