The first angel came while I was sleeping. I woke when I heard the floorboards creak in Amya's room. I'm up in a flash and race towards her room. I fling open the door to see a beautiful woman with big, white wings, tickling Amya with a long feather. When she hears me she turns around and we look at each other without saying anything. She whispers. "I am so sorry but I am the first angel. There are fourteen more to come and not all of them will be as kind as I am." I sink onto the floor silently cry. She comes over and wraps her arms around me. Then she stands up to leave. she turns to me one last time and her face is filled with sadness.

In the morning, when my husband, Alec, gets up to go to work he finds me missing. He goes into Amya's room and sees me he runs over and places his arms around trying to comfort me. When I look up at him, It's clear that he is worried for me. I look over to Amya and he follows my gaze and asks if anything is wrong. I say nothing, since he has no clue about the angels, and hope he has a nice day at work. Amya starts crying so I pick myself up and start the day.
