Exerpt from Hidden Secrets:

Frustrated with myself, I turned towards the window and stared out at the sky. It would be dusk in another hour or two. The sky was a beautiful blue with wispy clouds. The sky had always been my escape when I had no where else to go. I could look at the sky, ponder, loose myself, try to forget or even remember. The sky was my freedom when I had none. The key to my cage. My hope when I was hopeless. I relied on the sky to be my escape, my allie when I need one. The sky saw the tears I used to cry, saw the void in my soul. I began loosing myself in the sky, pondering what to do about Piper. Keep her with me or toss her out or maybe find her someplace else to go. In my daze, I heard a small, almost invisible voice, telling me to keep her with me. I battled inside me, giving myself the pros and cons of keeping her. When I came out of my daze, it was already seven-thirty, the sky was beginning to get dark and I had come to a decision.
