There was a nagging feeling in Damien's heart that wouldn't go away even after knowing that she was already safe. As he watched over her for hours, he did not dare let go of her hand – it was as though he was afraid that if he did, she would disappear.
He held her hand with both of his and hoped that she would wake up very soon. He closed his eyes but he wasn't sleeping at all.
A few minutes later, Katherine fluttered her eyes open and she took her time to adjust to the lights on the ceiling. She vaguely remembered that she was brought to the hospital earlier. She turned her head to the side when she felt her hand become numb and what she saw beside her touched her heart.
