“How are you feeling?” Abe asked.

“Hmm?” I asked, arching an eyebrow.

“You still don’t remember what happened in the cave?”

I didn’t think I had lost weight but I still felt weak and thin.

Abe was looking at me with a concerned, scrutinizing look in his eyes. He seemed reluctant to tell me what had happened.
