Finished The memory of the fall kept replaying in my mind. Benjamin had protectedthrough it all. "Benjamin, why were you so foolish? Why did you protectlike that in such a dangerous moment? "Benjamin, please don't lie there any longer! Wake up! You promised we would get engaged, and we haven't even had our engagement party yet. You can't break your promise.
"I still have so many secrets that I kept from you." I leaned over the bed, talking to Benjamin for hours, telling him everything I could think of But he didn't respond. Not a single sign of life.
I took a deep breath. No matter what, I wouldn't leave. I had to wait for him to wake up. Eventually, I fell asleep beside his bed.
The next morning, when I opened my eyes, the room was bathed in warm sunlight.

Ivana shook her head and said, "Christopher said he wasn't with Christine when the avalanche happened. But don't worry, my team is out looking for her. As long as she's alive, we'll find her.
I felt awful. We had ctogether as four, but now there were only three of us left with the news. Christine, where are you? That day, I stayed by Benjamin's side at the hospital, and the next day, Christopher arrived.
I'll never forget that moment-seeing Christopher look completely broken, drained of all his usual strength.
"Is he okay?" Christopher's voice was hoarse, and he seemed to have lost the spark he always had.
"He'll be fine once he wakes up. It's just that after so many days, there's still no sign of improvement. I tried to reassure him.
Christopher walked to Benjamin's bedside and looked down at him, his eyes filled with both worry and hope. "Ben, you've always been an example to us all.

"Still no word from Christine?" I asked quietly.
His expression darkened at the mention of her name.
"If I had been there with her, playing in the snow with her... would things have turned out differently? After the avalanche, I searched everywhere, but I couldn't find her." His voice was filled with regret.
"She'll be fine," I said, but I wasn't sure if I was trying to comfort him or myself.
"You take good care of Ben, Christopher said softly. "As for Christine, I'm not going back until I find her." He released Benjamin's hand, stood up, and left..
My heart sank even deeper. Christine, please cback. We're all waiting for you.
