I heard rustling long before I opened my eyes. The light from the morning sun gently streamed through the blinds of the windows, casting an ethereal glow throughout the room. Slowly, I blinked away the blurriness in my eyes.
My hand felt around for Elio, only to find that his side of the bed was completely empty.
What little bit of sleep that was still lingering around my eyes instantly fell away. I turned my head to find Elio rummaging through the closet and dresser and throwing on whatever clothes he found.
My brows drew together in confusion. Was I forgetting something? Where on earth was he going in such a hurry? Did we have some kind of errand or engagement this morning that I’d completely forgot about?
