Chapter 5

My soul drifted through the cold hospital hallways, surrounded by the smell of disinfectant.

Aaron was rushed into the emergency room, with doctors frantically working to save him.

I stood to the side, silently watching him, my heart a jumble of emotions.

"The patient's emotional distress caused cardiac arrest. We need to defibrillate immediately!"

The doctor shouted, the defibrillator in his hands making a terrifying sound.

As I watched the doctors operate with tension, I silently prayed, hoping he would wake up.

Not because I had gone soft, but because the truth about my kidnapping and torture had yet to be revealed.

Fortunately, after a tense round of resuscitation, Aaron's heartbeat finally returned.

The doctor breathed a sigh of relief and began follow-up examinations and treatment.

"The patient already had some heart issues. With this emotional shock, the situation doesn't look good."
