(Kat PoV)
Groaning, I opened my eyes. I had a pounding headache, and when I opened my eyes and saw the sun filtering through the windows, I grimaced.
Feeling someone holding my hand, I looked over to see Jahi sitting next to me, her amethyst eyes wide with worry.
Giving a weak smile, I saw her eyes water before she wiped them.
"K-Kat..."
She pulled me into a hug, holding me as tight as she could. Nuzzling into her arms, I took a deep breath, finding solace in her warmth.
Jahi was shaking, and I could hear muffled sobs.
Placing my hand on her back, I stroked her gently, hoping to calm her down.
Time passed by slowly, however I wanted this moment to last as long as possible. To help me forget what just happened.
Hearing someone shuffling behind me, I looked over my shoulder to see my mother wiping her red, puffy eyes. Seeing me, her eyes lit up even as tears streamed down her cheeks.
