June knew it was late, especially for a weeknight with school in the morning, but the idea of going back to sleep in her room was not one she could face. If Kitty and Terry were both asleep she could always go sleep in the rec room with the television turned on. After all, Doctor Essex slept in there. How bad could it be?
When the door opened, she looked up at Kitty. When she was told that Theresa was sleeping, June nodded mutely and walked into the room. She headed for Kitty's bed and sat atop it with her back to the wall. "I had a bad dream," she whispered in a shaky voice. "I've been having them every night almost. About when we were attacked." She took a breath in and looked across the room at Theresa without really looking at her. "Tonight I had a dream about my daddy. He was coming to get me and take me away."
She hated that she could feel her bottom lip quiver even though it was just her and Kitty right now. She didn't like anyone seeing her cry. "I don't want him to take me away. If he comes back, can he do that?"
