As soon as I wake up, a different scenery greeted me . White ceiling, smell of disinfectants and the whole room was painted with white. It almost feels like I'm in heaven. A pair of crutches beside me and some wires that I don't understand what are they, were attached on my body. But I didn't bother thinking what are those.
"Where am I? Office or in my room?"
"Awww... my head hurts. I must have slept for too long."
*Yawn*
"I must better get up, I still have lots of work-"
"Danica? Danica coffee please... Where's my secretary and where's everyone?"
"I'll just get it myself-"
"What is this? Something's hard on my bed"
Her vision is still blurry so she tried to tap it.
*tap tap tap*
"Mushroom?"
But when her vision was clear enough, she was very surprised.
A/R: UwU
"Mom!!!!!!!!!! Mom!!!!!!!!!!"
Dung!
*Sliding doors opened*
>"What happened Tracy?! Do you feel any pain??!! Thank goodness you're awake now."< Worriedly asked Tracy while rushing in.
"M-m-mom! Who's this guy sleeping beside me?!!"
>"He's boyfriend."<
"Boyfriend? Since when? No, he isn't!"
>"Are you sure? After all, you were both rescued together. And he was naked ON TOP OF YOU Rarrrrrrr...."< (OwO)
"Rescued?" (OwO)?
>"Don't you remember Tracy? You almost died in that car accident!"<
>"And thank goodness, you miraculously you survived without even a scratch."<
>"Which reminds me... Didn't I told you to stop driving 'coz I'll come and get you!"<
"Ouch...ouch... mom stop beating me with that pillow. It still hurts." (>.<)
>"You don't know how worried I am! I already lost your father... You're the only one left for me!
You stupid daughter, you always make me worry to death!"<
"I'm sorry mom. So please don't cry. I'll never do it again promise."
"So can you tell me now who's this guy beside me?"
>"Is he really not your boyfriend?"< She asked while wiping her eyes with handkerchief.
"No, he's not. But I think I saw him somewhere before. I just don't remember when or where."
>"Nobody knows who that guy is. He's been asleep for a week. I thought you know him since he was beside you. And-"<
*knock knock knock*
>"Yes come in"<
>>"Good morning Mrs. Yamamoto. We're the police. It seems that your daughter is already awake so we would like to start the investigation right away."<<
>"Really? She just woke up!"<
>>"I'm really sorry but we need to."<<
>"Alright you may ask her a few questions but please make it short. She just woke up a few minutes ago. Don't force her understand?!"<
>>"Yeah yeah sure, no problem. Thank you ma'am"<<
>"I'll grab some food for you Tracy. I'll be back soon."<
"Don't forget the ice cream mom!"
>"Okay I will."<
*Mrs. Yamamoto closes the door*
>>"Now Ms. Tracy, could you tell us what happened?"<<
"It was a scorching hot Thursday noon. It was my 21st birthday. The streets were clear so you can clearly see the steam coming out from the concrete road. When I was driving at the bridge, I was low on gas so I go back to the gasoline station just before crossing the bridge."
"After I left the gas station, it rained so hard that I couldn't clearly see the road. My roof won't close so I was freakingly wet. "
"My mom called me again and I was trying to answer the call but my phone fell under the car seat so I was trying to pick it. But I can't reach it so I unbuckle my seat belt and after I finally got my phone…"
"Then suddenly a kid appeared in front of my car, I steered my car away from the kid. From that, I can't remember anything".
>>"I beg your pardon Tracy. And I know you're still recovering from the accident and you may think I'm a cold-hearted police but we still need to investigate this accident. We've got your car's dash cam which proves the kid suddenly crossing in front of you. And the father of that girl called an ambulance for you. Just for you, he didn't know about the man. There are two things we don't understand. How did you survive from the accident?"<<
>>"Your car crashed into the plastic barriers and then hit the lighting post which luckily stopped your car from falling but your car flipped over."<< The police officer said without looking away from her eyes. It seems he was still not convinced about what's happening.
>>"And you flew out from your car 'cause apparently you ain't wear your seat belt that time and your airbags didn't deployed. Then you fall from the bridge which is insanely 200 meters high, and fall into the river."<<
>>"So how the heck did you survive and escaped with just a little scratch and a sprain?! And lastly, you were found lying beside an unconscious guy, so who is this guy?"<<
"What the heck, lucky girl, it's unbelievable that you survived that accident."
"So will you please tell me how did you survived lucky girl? That day, you should have been died."
Radio: "Officer 931, there is a car chase heading to your position. The suspect is armed. I repeat the suspect is armed. Please intercept the car. Proceed with caution. Over"
Radio: "Officer 931, do you copy? Please respond."
Officer: "Copy that HQ, heading out now. Over and out."
"That would be all for today lucky girl, I'll be back when that guy woke up. See you tomorrow kid. The officer said while pulling up his utility belt and put on his hat."
After the police left the hospital, a blonde-haired girl entered my room.
She was wearing some weird white clothes and her skin was as white as the clouds. Maybe she is a nurse in the hospital but she barely approached me.
So I called her out to help me sit properly.
"Uhm, hey ... could you please help me sit? Hello? Nurse?"
She was walking around as if she doesn't hear me. Walking step by step towards me and she was looking intently into my eyes. Her eyes were terrifying and my heart was beating rapidly. Her right hand was slowly reaching my neck and suddenly…
>"Good day Ms. Tracy, I'm your nurse today so nice to meet you. I... guess? Hello? Do you need something? And what are you looking for, Ms. Tracy?"<
"Where is the other nurse? She was just here a while ago."<
>"Nurse? Uhm.. There's no other nurse assigned on you aside from me. By the way, you're so lucky that survived that accident, it's really a miracle given by God."<
*checking medical equipment while holding a checklist*
>"Ok I'm done. So just take a rest, and I'll be back later."<
"And nurse, I need to pee… Ugh she's already gone. Oh well, I can do it myself."
(That girl earlier, was that really just my imagination? Who was that girl and who is this guy?) A/N: () = inner monologue
A lot of questions without answers came into my mind. I didn't even notice I was already staring at the stranger's face.
"Who are you?" Tracy said unconsciously while looking at his face.
A chilling soft voice whispered into her ears.
>>"You must return it to him."<<
Tracy quickly turned her face. She saw the same girl earlier, and she is standing right beside her and another girl which was a little bit taller than the other.
Tracy was shaking with fear as soon as she saw her. Tracy was scared but she doesn't know why she's cared of her.
"W…wh… what did.. you just say? And.. who are you?" Tracy asked while trying to grab her crutches but she was too scared that she couldn't move her hands properly.
>>"Young one or should I say… Ms. Tracy, He is in danger you must return it to him."<<
Tracy was so shocked seeing the girl speak without using her mouth.
>>He is your-"<<
Tracy fainted before she could hear the rest of the sentence.
