บท 96: Artem - A Change In Star

~~

Artem

~~

I was kneeling on the floor next to Star's bed, just happy to see her eyes open. My heart was racing a mile a minute and felt like it was going to beat right out of my chest. She was awake. She was awake and was going to be OK. I was so happy, so elated.

I had asked her how she was, how she was doing:

"How are you feeling Star? Are you OK? Is there anything that hurts at all? Do you need anything? Anything at all?"

All I wanted to do was help her in some way. I wanted to make her feel better. I wanted her to be comfortable and happy and anything else positive that I could make me right then and there. Following my questions she sat up in the bed, pulling the sheet with her to hide herself, which was probably a good idea at the moment.
