I couldn't sleep, so I thought I'd go for a walk. I'm not hungry yet, so I'll have breakfast with your eldest young lady when she gets up," Serenity said.

Tim nodded in understanding and cautioned, "Just be careful. It rained a bit last night, so spaths are still wet and could be slippery." "I'll stick to the dry paths," Serenity assured him.
She always stayed on the main roads, avoiding the winding paths in the backyard where she might slip. With few people around at this hour, a fall could go unnoticed.
