Kapitel 107: Retrieving Serina's memories (2)

Author's note: This is from Duke's point of view

Serina's hand in mine was the best thing that happened to me in days, and I relished the feeling of her warmth meeting mine.

"Let's go inside."

Serina's words pulled me out of my daze.

I lifted her hand and pressed the back of her palm against my chest. I didn't want to let go.

I knew it was silly, but this was the most physical contact we had in days.

"Can we stay here longer? I really want to hold your hand." At least her hand. Going inside meant getting ready for sleep and I didn't want to sleep in the spare bedroom again. I didn't want to part from her.

"You look tired. We should rest.", she said.

"I can't rest with all this going on." It was the truth. I barely slept since Serina woke up without memories of me… without memories of us.
