When he awoke from the operation, the first thing he noticed
was the strong beating of his new heart, a sensation long absent from his
chest. He sat up. He was in the same room where they had anesthetized him
before the operation, except now there was a tray with food in the corner.
When he looked at it, two things happened. First, he felt
his mouth water. Second, and this is when he saw the steak knife, his heart
began to beat strong and fast. It was a curious sensation, accompanied by the
desire to pick up the knife.
