Julian’s POV
Looking at Alice and Amber talking to one another, resolving this issue. Alice was only six, but she was already so resolute, so determined… She was like a miniature version of her daughter. I could only imagine the trouble she was going to be as she grew up, and I couldn’t wait to see it.
Alice wouldn’t let Amber and I out of her sight for the rest of the day, so it wasn’t until much later, when Amber and I were finally alone in the hallway outside of our bedrooms, Alice tucked in and asleep, that we were finally able to talk privately again.
“She’s just like you, you know,” I told Amber. She smiled like I had just given her the greatest compliment in the world.
Still, Amber shushed me. “Come on,” she said. “We should speak somewhere else.”
“She’s asleep,” I said.
