Heat

Heat.
There is a reassuring sound in the boiler flame wooshing alive.
The strange noises of the water creeping into the pipes. Clink. Tap. Tap. Clink.

'What's that noise?' she asks.
'It's your heater turning on to keep you warm.'
'Ooooh.'
'Now snuggle in and go to sleep.'

We rest thankful for that heat.
