Summary
She couldn’t shake the ice-cold phantom touch of the unconscious eighteen-year-old whose hand she had held just minutes earlier as her heart had beaten for the final time. Cassie hadn’t even been able to reassure her, to tell her that it would be okay, to not be scared - perfect, necessary lies. Instead, Cassie had just watched the girl’s face, their hands linked, trying to pretend that she couldn’t see her younger self in the dying teenager before her.
Cassie loses a young girl to a drug overdose and feels like she has failed her younger self all over again. Dana comforts her.
