Authors: Abigail Collins
“Thank you,” I tell Cyrus. He nods like he understands what I mean, and I smile back at him. I want my last thought to be a happy one, so I think of my mother. In my head, she is singing me to sleep with the song from my music box. I wonder if I will get to see her again – and Dori, Holden, and even my father. I hope so.
The metal feels cold against my chest, but inside I feel warm. I close my eyes, and fall asleep with my mother’s lullaby still echoing in my ears.
about the author
Abigail Collins is a 22-year-old college student who currently hails from the exciting town of Grand Forks, North Dakota – think Canada; it’s basically Canada.
In her spare time, when she’s not writing, she enjoys painting, creating videos, and sleeping. But who doesn’t like sleeping? That doesn’t really count.
Her best friends are her mother and her Maltese/Papillon puppy Mazie.
She currently attends the University of North Dakota and is a Math major. Like a proper nerd, she also enjoys watching anime, playing card games – Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering – and making Math jokes no one else understands.
Abigail is currently working on writing four other books in tandem, and would like more than anything to become a full-time author in the future.
