Chapter 20

• I slowly opened my eyes when I felt that my consciousness came back. It was still dark and freezing cold despite the thick blankets wrapped around me.
• I could hear the sounds of insects in the trees outside my window and the moon’s not that bright this night because of the clouds blocking it.
• I wanted to sit but I noticed that I was holding something -someone was in my left hand.
• I blinked a few times to adjust my sight in the dark before turning my head to my left side. I squinted my eyes and tried to recognize the person who was sitting next beside the bed.
• It felt like I was holding on a finger. Was it Dad’s finger?
• I turned to my left very slowly, in fear that I might wake my father up but its no use because he still woke up.
