CelineI woke up to the faint beeping of machines and the smell of antiseptics. My body ached, and I could barely move. I blinked my eyes slowly as I tried to focus and that was when I realized I was in a hospital room. Then, the memories of the accident came rushing back, giving me a headache. I tried to sit up but pain shot through my head and stomach, forcing me to lie back on the bed with a groan. The door opened and a doctor walked in, smiling warmly. “Oh, you’re awake,” he said with a smile as he walked to my side. “What happened?” I whispered, my throat dried, my voice barely above a whisper. "I need water," I said, holding my chest that was burning. “You were involved in an accident,” he explained, handing me a glass of water. “But you’re stable now. With a little rest, you’ll be discharged in a couple of days.” I nodded slightly, trying to process his words as I gulped down the whole glass of water. Then, a terrible realization struck me. Something felt... wrong.
