Astrid's POV. Ch.21

What's that smell?
I inhaled a little longer than usual and exhaled slowly with my breath hitching a bit. I felt someone's hand slightly touch my arm and my eyes fluttered open.
"Wh-where am I?".
I know I asked that question but I felt like my voice was internal and wasn't voiced out.
I peered at the ceiling recognizing it instantly even though everything was blurry. Everything slowly came back to normal and I turned to look at whoever it was that was seated beside me.
"You're awake". She smiled smoothening my hair with her palm.
It was the lady I had collided with at the laundry cottage and also met in front of the healing house.
"Easy there will you?". She scolded as I tried to sit upright. She assisted by placing her hand on the small of my back.
