Skylar took a deep breath and pushed aside her thoughts. She went to the kitchen, cooked some chicken soup, and heated a few sandwiches she had made earlier and stored in the fridge.
Time passed unnoticed, and the sky outside had completely darkened before she knew it.
There was no moon or stars tonight, only the glow from some streetlights. She glanced out the window before looking away.
Suddenly, she felt someone standing at the kitchen door. She immediately turned to look and met Joe's deep, intense gaze.
She asked as she walked toward him. "How are you feeling now?"
Without saying a word, Joe immediately pulled Skylar into his arms and kissed her. The kiss was urgent and passionate, as if he needed to confirm that she was real and wasn't just a dream.
"I've been having so many conflicting memories. One of them is about a person named Raven. I met her a few years ago, and what happened next… it's almost exactly like what Elsie described," he said, his voice laced with confusion.
Half an hour later, after finishing their chicken soup and feeling warm and content, Joe shared more about his memory.
"Raven?" Skylar murmured, unfamiliar with the name.
Joe had mentioned it briefly earlier when he was delirious. At that moment, a new memory of this person seemed to emerge in his mind.
She hadn't appeared in front of them yet. A negative item wouldn't just randomly insert someone into memory, so Raven would show up soon.
"I don't know her," Joe replied with a frown.
When he first woke up, he felt disorientated, but he quickly regained clarity.
