The broken pieces of the glass flew toward Kate and Clarence at a speed that even Clarence was not able to deflect them on time.
Clarence drew Kate into his arms and used his body to shield her from the glass which some now stuck to his clothes and body.
Soon everything went quiet and the broken pieces of glass were all over the floor. Kate was so shaken by the sudden outburst that she held tightly unto Clarence who also didn't let go of her.
Feeling something warm on her hands, she slowly disengaged from Clarence's hold and brought her hands up to see the blood that covered them. Her mind went still for a moment before she looked up to meet Clarence's gaze on her.
"I'm fine" Clarence muttered and took her bloody hands in his "Are you okay?" He asked seeing the way her eyes were wild with fear.
