"We moved a while ago. You were unconscious for a long time," Michael said, taking my hand.
I looked down at his hand. For sreason, I had the feeling that his hand shouldn't be this smooth and unblemished but littered with burn marks and scars Surprised by my own thoughts, I subconsciously flinched away from Michael's hand. He looked atwith hurt, but it was fleeting.

She would surely be busier as a coroner.
"Do you want to go out for a walk?" he asked again when he noticed that I wasn't planning to leave.

I felt resistant and refused to take them.
"You have to listen to the doctor, or you'll forget things and lose control of your emotions. You even hurtand the kids that day," Michael said softly. He wasn't blaming me; it sounded more like a plea. I looked at him, somewhat shocked. Did I lose control without even noticing? I took the pills from his hands and swallowed them.
