Kelly woke up to find the room fillet with doctors. She quickly stood, her movements rushed and uncertain.

Gary stepped forward, pointing at Kelly. "Do you recognize her? If you do, blink."

Kelly's heart pounded as she stared at Zev. Her mind was torn-she wanted him to remember her, but part of her wished he didn't.

Zev's expression didn't change. His eyes remained cautious, never once softening toward Oscar.
