Emmy heard Alex's soft voice with a furious tone hidden in it. After the accident, she always had forsworn any relation with others, but now she never hated the physical contact with Alex. Whenever he embraced her or sat beside her, she felt absolute comfort and inner peace within her.
"Alex, would you believe me if I tell you the truth about myself?"
The guy who was furiously waiting for an answer when met with a strange question gently patted her back. He was certain that he should patiently wait to let her open up to reveal the scar of her past. Alex didn't rush Emmy, he gently smoothened the flocks of her hair and pacified her.
