Huzey woke up to the pungent smell of hospital disinfectant running through his nostrils. He tried to open his heavy eyes but the light was too bright that too much exposure to it felt like he was having a severe migraine. Grunting with the sudden pain that welcomed him, he touched his head only to find that his whole face had been bandaged.
"What's this? Where am I?" He said confused about what was happening. He squinted in attempt to search the place without hurting his eyes, but despite the effort, all he saw was blurred images. He shut his eyes in frustration, trying to remember what exactly happened. Then everything hit on him as the fragments of memory came back to him—there was an explosion at the mine and he succumb to darkness after that.
When he remembered it all, a panic rushed onto him. Was that explosion the reason why his face was bandaged? What else did he lose with the explosion?
