1: The room is dark and someone speaks from the hallway.
Girl: Mom? Mommy?
Mom: mnnmm… mmm?
2: The mom sits up, rubbing her eyes.
Mom: That you, angel?
3: The door slides open and the daughter peeks in, face wet with tears.
Girl: I had another bad dream…
4: The dad, stirs and looks over his shoulder.
Mom: Come here, little one…
Dad: Mrf... everything okay?
5: The mother has hoisted the daughter up to hug her to her chest. The girl glances at her father with subtle resentment.
Mom: Get some sleep, love, I’ll take care of this.
6: The dad pulls blankets over himself, pouting slightly.
