'Where am I?' was what first came to Xiu Mei's mind.
She had just regained her consciousness but she clearly felt even more tired than ever instead of being energized. Her eyelids felt heavy and it was difficult enough to open her eyes for quite a long time. Her whole body felt heavy and moving just a little bit brought pain to her body.
Her breathing was slightly ragged and she felt a little bit stuffy. Her throat was a bit itchy too.
After assessing herself, Xiu Mei realized that she was sick. And it wasn't just a simple fever, it was a really bad case of fever.
But she had other things to worry about aside from being sick. When she opened her eyes, what welcomed her was an unfamiliar grey-ish ceiling. Forcing herself to shift her head, she realized she was in a dimly lit room with simple decorations. She didn't bother examining whatever objects were around her when her eyes trailed to the long tube stuck on the back of her hand.
