They didn't know the possible outcomes. If you would live, or not; it's so terrifying. That's why you had to see him. You tune out all of Katelyn's germaphobic remarks. One finally breaks through your metaphorical barrier, "Have you told Laurance yet?" You hadn't. You can't bear to when he looks so happy. When Katelyn sees the look in your eye she nods solemnly. You can't— not in such times of peace.
