Star didn't come to lunch again today. I knew she was going to look through her mother's journal after breakfast so I thought she might still be caught up in that when I found her. I didn't expect to see her laying on the couch crying in her sleep.
Star was the kind of person who felt emotions stronger than others. I don't know if that was a personality thing or a biological thing. It was possible she was so empathetic since she was half Fae. I didn't know much about the Fae.
When I saw what kind of state she was in I pulled her into my arms and cradled her. The movement woke her up so she was now staring up at me with confusion in her eyes.
"What's going on?" She looked like she barely remembered falling asleep at all.
"You were crying." My voice was soft as I spoke, trying not to break the peace of the room.
