For one fractured second, Daniel looked almost disbelieving, as though his mind refused to accept that the love of his life was truly standing there. Then his jaw tightened violently. Frustration darkened his bruised face while helpless fury burned beneath it. "Daniel-" The gasp that escaped her was shaky. Without thinking further, Mili rushed toward him, not caring about the atmosphere surrounding them. Her knees hit the cold ground harshly as she bent beside him and immediately cupped his face between her trembling hands. Up close, the sight of him looked worse.

Nobody spoke to him immediately after his arrival. The moments of silence themselves felt cruel. Mili remained seated on the cold floor beside Daniel with her restrained hands trembling faintly against her lap. She could feel the warmth of Daniel's bruised shoulder beside her, but Daniel hadn't looked at her properly since she was dragged there beside him.
