I was about to confess that I love her but her grip on my hand tightened a little as she tilt her head a little and slowly opened her eyes,

"I am so glad to see you awake." I sobbed. I put my head on her hand and continued to sob.
"Please.. don't Christian.." She whispered in a croaked voice. I looked at her, I knew If I cried anymore, she'll cry too.
I swallowed the lump in my throat and sniffed. I wiped my tears and smiled.
I cupped her cheeks slightly, so as not to touch the bandit on her cheek and to avoid touching her lips because of the cut present on it.
