Keegan had never called Stella "Honey" let alone held her hand after his return. When he did so, Stella's heart pounded with a mix of emotions. 'It seems like he remembers me. But, why is he pretending like he doesn't?' Her mind was in turmoil.

Keegan would not pretend not to remember her for no reason. There must be a reason behind his actions, but Stella could not discern what it might be.
