Savannah was like a kitty lost in the forest, isolated, helpless, and frightened. Kevin, in front of her, was the only hope. His words of comfort quieted her for a while. Finally, she nodded and lay down.
Kevin tucked her up in bed and rang the bell.
A moment later, the doctor came in. Kevin stood up and described how Savannah felt. Surprised by what Kevin said, the doctor hurriedly asked the nurse to take Savannah to the examination room for more examination.
It was not until early evening that Savannah was sent back to the ward. She ate some porridge and felt sleepy again. But she was afraid that Kevin, the only one she was familiar with, would disappear. Lying on the bed, she forced her eyes open and stared at Kevin. She dared not sleep.
Kevin's heart ached for her. He sat at the edge of the bed and held her cold hand. "Rest assured. I'll be here with you."
