Physical Therapy

Berengar stood by Henrietta's side, as he helped her walk on her own two feet since she had first taken a bullet to her abdomen on that fateful night. Though there was no serious harm done to either the girl's spine, or her major internal organs, some muscle was damaged, and required time and effort to heal. 

The two siblings grasped onto each other's hands tightly, as the girl struggled to make her steps. With each movement, her abdomen felt sore, causing her to wince in pain. However, as time passed, the pain left her body, and she strode forward with confidence. Towards the end of the session, she relied only a bit on her brother for support. 

After helping Henrietta take her first steps since her injury, Berengar carried her to her room like a princess, where he laid her back down on her bed. Just when he was about to walk away and get to the work that needed to be done, he felt the girl grasp onto his hand, and refuse to let go.
