KATRINA’S P O V
''Yes, it’s me…'' I whispered back, my entire being was aware of the rhythm of my heartbeat. Oh my God, how I love this man.
''Mr. Parker, take a sip on this first, please…'' the nurse asked politely, as she held a straw to his mouth, a glass of water in her hand. Travis followed obediently as he sipped slowly. After he was done, the nurse set the glass on the side table and then proceeded to a desk located in a corner of the room.
''I love you, Katrina…'' Travis tightened his hold on my hand. ''I thought… I’d never see you again…'' he licked his dry lips. ''I was so afraid…''
I laughed wetly, and realized that I was crying.
''I love you too, Travis…'' I replied. ''I love you so much…'' I paused, catching my ragged breath. ''I’ve been through hell these past hours. Never in my entire life have I felt such an overwhelming feeling of dread...'' I was crying so hard the tears were dampening his hand.
