The untold menace awaits me.
In this frigid and cataclysmic cosmos here I stand a lost figure.
My head hurts like it would explode any moment, along with my left arm that was plastered because I had a compound fracture in the radius bone of my left arm. 3 Metatarsals in my left foot and the Talus of my right foot were fractured.
Why am I in the ICU?. I predicted from the ICU bedside Monitors.
What on earth has happened to me? The thought left me in a state of disorientation.
"Oh oh he's awake ", someone said swiftly, I think it was the nurse. I felt dizzy and nauseous , maybe the anesthesia hasn't worn out yet completely.
The colors changed back to where they were in my eyes : Grey and White. But how did I end up in the hospital, where's Jisoo?. I turned my head around to see if she was around but she was not.
I guess by that time the nightmare has ended that created a muddle in my head. The lights above my eyes were dim grey. Everything was unlike home.
What is this place? A ventilator on the right side of the bed, its extended prongs fitted to my nose, The Saturation Monitor attached to my thumb, air line that was injected in my left arm vein, IV drips, Ventriculostomy fixed to my head ( A catheter that goes into the ventricles or spaces of brain to watch and control pressure in the brain) Head dressings : A Hospital!!
How did I end up in the hospital on top of that the ICU!!!?.
These thoughts were storming in my head , but I failed in understanding the starting point for this whole synopsis.
Meanwhile , the doctor approached and started asking questions whether I was fully conscious or not. He used his penlight to check my pupils.
" Please show me his chart", the doctor asked the nurse. " Where's Jisoo?", moaned I.
"Yes? I'm sorry I didn't hear you , please say it again a little louder", said the doctor. Being a doctor I guess he should know what a person feels like when they are in a critical situation such as mine; this dumb-headed loaf!", said I to myself.
The silence that there was , was hunting me deeply.
What happened so far between the dream and reality, or was it really....Real.
Where is Jisoo? Is she dead? Why am here like this fighting for my life?
Is it just my assumption or has this all dreadful part has taken place?
