If Only

Daime wakes up a bit early than Aiden but he has been staring at the dark ceiling for the past three hours. He looks to his side and Aiden is still snoring his dream of pine cones and summer nights.

The serene scene is quite funny for Daime but he knows that this will not last at all. He receives a message earlier from one of his cousins regarding the folder that he had found.

According to him, he overhears Grandmama and Primo's conversation that sounds similar like the information from the folder. Daime's first reaction is a chuckle and follows by a quiet sob. 

He does not dare to make it any louder since Aiden is sleeping right behind him. Could this day get any worse?

He chuckles in between sobs and hopes that everything will be okay at the end. But knowing about the information from the folder, Daime knows that he needs to make a move before he loses Aiden.
