When she opened her eyes and realized that she had passed out, Katelyn felt that she had been in this state for a long time because of the general numbness that her body was in.

Being a person inclined to find something positive in what wasn't, she didn't dwell on the reasons that could logically explain why she had lost consciousness and came directly to the conclusion that it had been caused by the shock of having seen the man she loved after years of separation...

It wasn't really explaining why she was having so much pain in several specific places on the back of her head as well as her cheeks, and it was far less plausible than the possibility that 'someone' had 'helped' her to pass out, but it was such a romantic scenario that Katelyn's brain had chosen it as her reality.

Ignoring the growing pain that was ȧssaulting her head, Katelyn started to look around her and tried to pick up all the details that could help her understand where she was and especially who she was with, hoping with all her heart that Logan wasn't far away...

One observation she made easily as she straightened up after wondering why the surface she was on was so uncomfortable was that she was lying on the asphalt of a road, subsequently she took a more detailed look around her which gave her additional information.

Looking behind her, she saw what seemed to be some kind of military truck which reassured her about her chances to see Logan soon since she remembered that there was a truck like this one not far from the place where she had seen him coming from, 'Where are you Lolo?' She wondered with anticipation while scanning her surroundings like a cat in heat looking for the male on whom it had thrown its devotion.

After several seconds of fruitless research, the euphoria that Katelyn felt reached its peak...

*CLACK*

She heard one of the truck doors slam, then footsteps gradually approaching her position, not even taking the time to process the situation her body acted on its own, ”Logan!” She shouted as she ran in the direction of the footsteps, certain that when she will reach the end of the corner of the truck that was hiding the person heading towards her, she will see Logan.

”Glad to know you're finally awake but I think there's a slight mistake on the name.” A woman's voice answered in a dry tone, which stopped Katelyn dead in her tracks and made her realize that she had been mistaken about the identity of the person who had just stepped out of the truck.
