The bench felt like stone beneath me, and my hands wouldn't stop trembling no matter how hard I tried to steady them

I had a blanket wrapped over me though it did nothing to give me comfort.

How would I feel okay in a situation like this?

Wanting to take the blanket off my body and scream, but I held myself, my fingers digging into my flesh..

Relax, Katrina. Relax.

I repeated several times, my foot tapping against the floor continuously.

My mind was blank as I stared ahead, my head banging

Because of when I was blown away by the explosion m. I had a bandage wrapped around my head, and I was fed painkillers, but that didn't stop the killer headache I was having.

I had cried for minutes before I was finally pushed away from the site by some of Silas' men.

Where were they when the car exploded? I wanted to ask, but I remained quiet.

I wanted to stay there, to watch them but They told me I was only going to be a hindrance and requested I leave

And, I had no other option than to obey.

With Silas dead, I had no one to shield me and it didn't help that they thought I had something to do with this

Like I was the least person that would gain grom Silas dying

I could still feel the deafening shockwave from the explosion; I could still hear the ringing from when the car had exploded Even the flames that had swallowed the car and the sky. Everything was still visible as it had happened just now.

And Silas had been right there.

Right in the middle of everything.

I closed my eyes, forcing myself to breathe, but that seemed easier said than done.

Since when was something as easy as breathing so hard that it felt like my chest was constricted?

Since when didi 1 feel this much jusg because of Silas, he was the least person I shook care about and yet here I was,

I struggled to steady my breathing, but every sound-the faint ticking of a wall clock, footsteps in the hall, everything seemed to be driving me crazy.

Silas men had dragged me to this small clinic and told me to wait, they asked a doctor to check my wounds and clean them while they went to investigate and find out what happened.

I wanted to come up with them, but i I was quite obvious that's couldn't.

What would I do for them? What help would I be?

I clearly couldn't do anything

Heck, if anything. I would only be coming in their way.
