I don’t feel very well…

Hence the shortness…

 

I hope to get better soon!

In the place between wakefulness and dreams, after the time for sleeping is over, but before one is fully ready to awaken, there are often reassurances to be had; especially in the instance of one Shinichi Kudo.

In his case, it was really a battle of his own desires pitted against the dull pain in his shoulder. Shinichi furiously fought both sides of the battle.

No matter the pain in his shoulder, though, Shinichi’s main concern was that of what Ran would do to him once he woke up.

Everything will work itself out for the best.

This particular reassurance was soft, and barely audible, but Shinichi clung to it.

What if it doesn’t?

There were no answers to be had.

Ultimately, it was his desire to find out for himself that got him to open his eyes.

And Ran was there, smiling, and welcoming him to the world of the living.

Shinichi smiled.
