"Ren? Ren! Ren!" I heard her calling my name, over and over again. She wasn't giving up. I could see that now. Even though I had hurt her, even after everything I had put her through she still loved me, and she wasn't giving up on me. A feeling of intense love and appreciation swept over. I realized I was no longer lying on the cold, stone floor in Lokesh' dungeon, instead I was in someone's arms, and she was calling my name. My head was cradled in her lap but I couldn't bring myself to open my eyes, to see the face of my beautiful Kelsey. I just couldn't stand seeing the pain there.
I remembered everything now, and I was appalled, sickened even, that I could hurt someone so terribly, especially someone I loved so dearly. That's why I fainted. I actually fainted from the pain. It wasn't like me, and certainly not becoming, especially in front of Kelsey, but right then, I didn't care. The pain of when I got my memories back, was unbearable; but the pain of being without Kelsey was worse. She knelt, still crying and cradling my head in her lap. For a moment, I allowed myself to relish in her touch. For the first time in months I was able to make contact with Kelsey and not feel pain. It was even more beautiful than I had imagined it.
I realized she was still crying, still saying my name, that's when I heard Kishan. "Kelsey, let's go, we need to find Mr. Kadam, come on, leave him be." I couldn't help it, I growled low in my throat, a warning. I opened my eyes and saw Kelsey leaning over me, Kishan over her shoulder, attempting to pull her away from me. No! Never again! He wouldn't take my Kelsey again! My hand moved of its own accord, coming to rest around Kelsey's wrist, holding her next me. "Don't go iadala", I pleaded, but she was already gone.
