Liz yawned and covered her mouth. She
glanced at the little boy sleeping on the bed behind her. He slept
soundly, all curled up on his right side with the sheets pulled up to
his chin. Max tucked him in right after he returned from his journey
and quietly excused himself to go talk to Hanley after giving her a
much needed kiss. The boy made very little noise in his sleep, but
she kept looking at him all the same. She felt very conscious of his
presence. Thoughts of Tess, the boy's real mother, ebbed at her
mind. Dead or not, she felt like the boy still had a connection to
his mom. Since her talk with Ava, she began to doubt the sure
feeling in her gut that Tess had died in that explosion. In the
presence of the sleeping boy, her doubt felt much more real.
Frustrated by her thoughts, Liz
returned her attention to her journal. 'I'm not sure that Tess
is really dead anymore,' she wrote, 'but I'm not sure if I'm
more worried she is alive or that I have no idea what her intentions
are if she is living and breathing. Either way, it's an uneasy
feeling and I'm not sure I want Max to know about it.' She
glanced at the boy again and turned her attention to her journal once
more as she added, 'I sense that Max's son is still connected to
her. I feel like he has the answers to my questions inside him.'
