Chapter 89

• CATRIONA
• I watched in absolute terror as his eyes closed and his body went numb. The room fell into an eerie silence, broken only by the sound of my own shaky breaths. Panic gripped my heart, threatening to suffocate me as I struggled to comprehend what was happening before my eyes.
• His face, once filled with life and smiles, now looked pale and lifeless. The colour drained from his cheeks, leaving behind a haunting stillness. Time seemed to stand still as I desperately searched for a sign of a movement, a flicker of hope that this nightmare would soon be over. But there was nothing. No movement, no response. It was as if his body had become a vessel, devoid of the vibrant spirit that once inhabited it. Tears welled up in my eyes, blurring my vision as I reached out to touch his hand, hoping for a miracle.
