"Are you okay?" Adrian asked as we reached safety. I just nodded.
It's morning after the rescue mission, and everywhere feels calmer, like troubled waters restored to their natural state. The presence of Adrian beside me calmed my strung-up nerves.
I'm getting used to the new sensations. I am grateful for the minimal losses yesterday, despite the expected resistance; the team worked efficiently.
The children are safe with us. I sense their lingering rhythm in the safe house.
Our energies intertwined during the rescue in ways no psychic book describes; it was simply amazing.
The memory sends a thrill through me, as soon the pictures flash through my mind anytime I stop to inhale and breathe, but now is not the time for all this.
I should focus on the children; they come first at this moment.
