"Ai, get a hold of yourself….just what's going on here?"
Cane asked as he watched Ai clutch her head and look down. Her eyes were shut in pain, and she was hunched over, almost as if she was trying to keep something from bothering her.
"No, I don't want to forget—"
Cane felt a little helpless in front of her.
He did not know how to help her, but leaving her in pain was also not an option for him. Her current expression and her sorrow made Cane act.
"Ai, look at me. I promise you that everything will be just fine. Just take a deep breath and look at me."
Cane turned Ai's face to look at him, and Ai finally felt like she could breathe again. Her eyes widened, and tears streamed down her pretty eyes.
At that moment, all she could see was Cane and his face. He was her anchor, keeping her connected to the present.
"It's going to be fine, Ai. Whatever you are thinking or going through, let it pass."
