They sat in a companionable silence, their hands still intertwined, each lost in their own thoughts but grateful to be together in that moment of healing and reconciliation.
David looked at Carissa with a hint of mischief in his eyes. "You know, you promised me a big hug if I woke up soon," he reminded her, his voice still weak but filled with a teasing warmth.
Carissa's eyes widened in surprise. "How did you hear that?" she asked, giving him a questioning look.
David smiled softly. "I wasn't really conscious, but I think I heard it. It's like my soul was connected with yours. I could feel your presence, hear your voice, even when I couldn't respond. It was like a lifeline pulling me back," he explained, his tone sincere and heartfelt.
She nodded, touched by his words. "Alright, I'll make you a healthy meal tomorrow, but you need to quit being a blabbermouth," she said, trying to lighten the mood.
