Episode 4

I opened my eyes blearily and the first blur sight I caught was the ceiling.

I shut my eyes and opened them again and my vision became more clear.

The scene was different -Iike that of medicines and all that.

“Zoey?” I heard a familiar voice and turned to see mum sitting beside me.

“Mum?” I called weakly and her eyes beamed

“Oh, my! You’re awake! You…are you okay? I’ll get the doctor” she giggled and hurried out of the room before I could say a word.

I looked at at ceiling again and tried sitting up – and I did.

What the hell happened?

My head kinda ached as I tried to remember.

The lady! The wounded lady! What happened to her? And how come I passed out?

Mum came rushing in with the doctor not long after.

“Please doctor; how’s she?” She asked even before he got to touch me.

He brought out his stethoscope and placed it on my hand and chest.

“She’s fine, ma’am. I told you. There are no physical injuries. So, you have nothing to worry about” he turned to mum and said and she heaved a hug
