The rest

Reynold was still for a long, long time while clutching Kairen's clothes and resting his head on the young boy's shoulder. His breathing had claimed down and so had the palpation of his heart that was so intense that even Kairen could feel it. Even though the man's situation has returned back to normal, Kairen didn't attempt to push him away from himself forcefully. He kept playing with the long strands of crimson hair while organizing his thoughts in silence. He didn't feel that uncomfortable while being hugged.

'So, all I need to do is to ignore these voices, which are supposedly the memories of my previous life, and keep doing whatever I have to do until Reynold finds a cure for me.'
