Doctors were hastily called, and Lily was rushed to the hospital for examination. Throughout the journey, Max remained by her side, refusing to leave her again. The medical staff, baffled by the turn of events, could only surmise that Lily had been in a state of deep coma, her vital signs so faint they had gone undetected.

As the days passed, Lily’s strength returned, and she began to share fragmented memories of her time “asleep.” She spoke of a warmth that surrounded her, a sense of security and love that never wavered. Max, she said, had been there with her, his presence a constant source of comfort, guiding her back to the world she had temporarily left behind.
