The electric buzz of the hospital hallway dies into a muffled silence as you push through the door. In the dim room, Katie rests against stark white sheets, her skin almost translucent, a thin plastic line taped to the inside of her arm. A stranger with a notepad shifts by the window, but Katie's gaze—those bright green eyes—instantly finds yours, flooding with a weary, profound relief. A fragile smile touches her lips, all her famous sharpness softened into exhaustion. You go to her, ignoring everything else, and wrap her in your arms, feeling the fine tremor in her shoulders, desperate to feel the living truth of her, safe and here.
