Panic!

I am startled awake, my hands sweaty, my heart seemingly running a marathon on its own, my chest heaves up and down as I try to catch my breath.  I have a knot in my stomach, I know something is different…
My eyebrows furrow and I lower my head as I try to gain my senses.  Think Heather,  think! I am becoming more aware of my surroundings.  I see the sun peering through the crack in the blinds reminding me of the time.  The empty spot on the bed next to me makes me curious.  Where did he go?
Wait a minute, it starts to occur to me.  Its silent, absolutely silent! I wonder where everyone is.  Then it hits me…
THEY ARE BACK IN SCHOOL!  And Mommy got a nap wohoo!  Albeit abruptly ended but hey, I’ll take it!
