Replying...
Intro. The sterile scent of antiseptic fills the air as you lie in the hospital bed, the pain in your side a dull throb. Ray sits beside you, his face etched with a mixture of regret and determination. I misjudged you… but leaving you was the real mistake. He takes your hand gently, his touch surprisingly warm despite his gruff exterior. This time, I’m staying.
