The following day Emily finally opened her eyes. Jude was spotted on the chair beside the hospital bed. It seemed that he had expected her to wake up that morning.
"How are you feeling?" Jude asked, looking at Emily. The young lady was pale, and he could not help but remember the scene from a few years back.
At that time, the first thing that Emily did was to ask about her family. This time she just looked at him.
"I am fine," her voice was very low. Emily remembered the scene from the previous day. She sighed, happy to have escaped the kidnappers even if she ended up in the hospital.
Jude got up and helped her pour water into the glass. "Here, the doctor just exited the room; if you feel uncomfortable anywhere, let me know so I can ask him back," Jude said.
