It took a few seconds but I recognized the voice right away.

──Eli...──.  I tried to speak clearly but it was an almost inaudible whisper that caused a horrible burning in my throat.

After pushing him away I looked at him trying not to cry, it couldn't be true.

His hair was now black meant something, I wanted to believe it didn't but seeing him in a suit only confirmed it, he was already part of the workers.

His fingers traced the bandage around my neck.

──Forgive me, I should have been there to protect you──.  Without realizing it, his voice betrayed his resentment towards himself for not having been able to prevent it, for not having been there to protect you. He blamed himself even though he shouldn't have.

It was subtle but I could see it, his eyes lost that shine in him like that day. I didn't want to be one of the reasons that fueled his sadness and his guilt towards himself, although I didn't know if that was the case, I hoped not.

I denied trying not to cry but it was impossible, because now it makes me remember his past.

I hate being sentimental.

──don't cry, angel...please don't──.  he cooed, wiping the tears from my cheeks with his thumbs.

──(forgive me...I should have been there to prevent it...)──.  It was what I wanted to tell him but I couldn't.

Maybe and just maybe I could have changed things.

──Eli──.  The voice of a third person was present but Eli did not marry and neither did you.

They were both in a strange bubble where only the two of them existed.

Eli hugged the redhead's weak body, being careful when doing so for fear of harming her. It was so vulnerable, so weak, so fragile that any touch could break it.

Having to see her in this state made him remember what happened with Heather...

But this would be different, he swore to himself that this time he would not allow someone important to him and Yenna to be taken away from him again.

For him, she was the missing piece in his family. It was his Moon that illuminated his dark nights. The reason to continue despite the decisions and actions he recently took.

──Eli──.  They called him again. He named it only so he could realize that the girl in his arms ended up falling asleep due to the sedatives.

Warren Chae had been accompanying his friend and boss the last few weeks to visit the redhead, he never understood why he did it.

Who was she to him? Was she his girlfriend? How long had they known each other? Many more questions ran through his mind but none of them could he ask.

Not because she couldn't, but because she saw how desperate Eli was in recent weeks when he came to visit her, that until today, when she finally woke up, she could appreciate how she made his despair disappear suddenly just by seeing her, as if nothing had happened. and for the first time he didn't know how to react.

Warren let out a low sigh and preferred to leave the room, being accompanied by the nurse who watched everything in silence.

──I won't let you go, not again──.  The black-haired man swore, clinging to the unconscious girl in her arms, afraid of losing her again.
