Chapter 156

• As soon as he notices I'm awake, his eyes widen and he jumps to his feet and rushes over to me.
• "Hello..." he murmurs leaning over me "welcome..." he smiles at the same time that a tear falls from his left eye.
• Making a human effort, I raise my right hand and reach to clean it, it kills me to see her cry, as soon as I caress her cheek her hands cup mine and she leans over it to unite her face and my skin. The contact feels so warm and so perfect that suddenly, despite all the physical pain I feel, I think I can get up and keep going.
