SHE REJECTS HIM

I believe in you

You know the dark to my very soul

You're the light in my deepest, darkest hour

You're my saviour when I fall

And you may not think that I care for you

When you know down inside that I really do

-'How Deep is Your Love' by Bee Gees.

Even its dust had no longer lingered in the air. He sat her down on the edge of the bed, and pulled a chair for him to sit and face her. He clasped her hands, but Raine refused to see him.

"My little angel… what must I do to ease your pain?" Torak asked gently, and cupper her small face, so that they looked into each other's eyes. But this time Raine closed her eyes. "Please don't do this to me…" He didn't feel good by the way Raine responded to him.
