Oliver's POV
I feel like I have been runover by a train. My head is heavy and my whole body is weak. I tried moving but I can't. It feels like I'm in an endless loop of sleeplessness. I could here people talking all the time. I wanted to tell them to shut up but I can't. My body won't follow what I tell it to do.
There were lights then it goes dark. It felt like I was in a scifi movie. Am I dreaming? Did someone drugged me?
At some point I felt like something was yanked out from my throat. That f*cking hurt and I couldn't breath. I was going to scream but nothing came out of my mouth.
I managed to open my eyes just to take a peek but as soon as it opened it instantly closed again.
Damn! What's happening to me?
Finally, I tried to open my eyes again. This time, I will take my time. I will open my eyes slowly and adjust it from the glaring white light. I heard someone called my name. But I couldn't figure out who it was.
The I saw some figures and lights again. Bloody hell!
"Oliver, can you hear me?" I heard a man's voice.
"Pupil reactive... good." I heard the same man.
And suddenly I yanked something that was on my mouth. What the f*ck is going on?!
"Calm down Oliver! You're going to hurt yourself!" Finally I heard a familiar voice.
When I could finally focus my eyesight, I saw 2 men and a woman. The woman was on the left side of my bed while the men was on the right. Then I felt a hand touching my head faintly telling me to relax.
"Oliver, you're in the hospital. You had an accident." He must be a doctor. He was wearing a thick black eye glasses and a stethoscope hanging on his neck.
I tried to muster something but my mouth was too dry. I was going to use my hand to point at my throat but it hurt when I try to move. And my other arm was being checked by the woman. Was she checking my blood pressure?
"Water..." I finally was able to say.
Then someone gave me something that was soaked in water. I sucked the water. I was too thirsty. But when it was time for me to swallow, I started coughing because swallowing was too painful.
The doctor said to give me ice chips. I was salivating just imagining the ice chips. I was that thirsty and desperate. When the ice chips arrived they adjusted my bed so I was sitting up. I was munching and sucking the ice chips like a maniac.
"Where am I?" I finally was able to say.
"Oh Oliver you're awake! You fool!" I'm sure that was Loise. I turned around around and saw her with tears on her eyes.
God I felt like I had the worse hangover while I was sitting up. Everyone was fussing over me and I continued munching and sucking the ice chips.
A woman came in the room.
"Baby you're awake!" She went straight to my bedside and was about to move her face near mine. But I moved back and I asked her who she was.
There was an awkward silence. I don't know what was wrong with my question.
"It's okay. I was just picking up something." The woman said. Then she stood up and off she left.
"Oliver, that was a very nasty joke!" Loise yelled at me.
I looked at her confused. I didn't do anything!
Then one of the doctors said that it's okay, things like these are expected. Then the doctors and the nurse went out of the room.
"Oliver, didn't you recognised your wife?" Loise asked.
I know I'm married and I've got kids but I honestly didn't recognised her.
"What happened to me?" I asked Loise instead of answering her question.
"I don't know Oliver. Macy was the one who brought you here. You should ask her. And you better apologize!" Loise snapped at me.
Macy. That sounds familiar.
Macy's POV
I couldn't even begin to say what I feel and how I feel. I'm happy that Oliver is out of the woods but it pains me to know that he has forgotten me. How many times do we have to go back to square one? I am constantly in battle with what he really feels towards me.
But I should be more lenient as well considering that he has just came back from a near death situation. And I was a doctor, I should know that things like post-traumatic amnesia is common after a brain injury.But why does it hurt?
What if he won't really remember?
Amnesias are unpredictable.I took deep breath and downplayed the turmoil I was feeling in the pit of my stomach. I decided that I will just go home for now and give him time. I have been very patient while he was unconscious, it should be easier now that he is awake. At least he is awake. That's the main thing.
I am already in the car when I received a message.
Loise: hi friend. I apologise for how Oliver reacted earlier. The doctor said that amnesia's are normal after a head injury. Oliver would like you to come back?
Should I really go back after my humiliation?
But since I'm stupid, very stupid at that, I went back to Oliver's room. There was no one when I arrived. I was pleased to see that the rest of the machines that was hooked to Oliver was gone. He didn't even need oxygen support. The only thing that was left was the bandage on his head and the fluids that was connected to the cannula on his cubital fossa.
I slowly walked. Oliver's eyes was closed. He probably was given pain relief. I walked up slowly towards the side of his bed. I kissed him like what I've been doing since he got admitted. I fixed his blanket as well to make sure he doesn't get cold.
"I love you." I whispered.
Then I fell asleep while leaning on his bed.
Loise's POV
I feel bad for Macy earlier at the way how Oliver reacted and treated her. But he really looked like he didn't know her at all!
But on the other hand, I am elated that my brother is finally getting better. It's been really crazy since the accident. I had to be appointed to attend meetings for him. And it felt like everyone wanted to swallow me alive.
I really hope Oliver gets better soon.
And I really need a pick me up! So, I'm going to the hospital's cafe and get a skinny chai. I could use a bit of sugar to make me feel better.
Oliver has just closed his eyes. He is probably tired after what happened earlier when he woke up. Before going to the cafe, I texted Macy to apologise for Oliver and that Oliver had actually asked for her to come back. I doubt she will but I still have to try.
I was going to have my coffee at the cafe but there was no vacant chair. So I ordered my skinny chai for takeaway then I went back to Oliver's room. But when I saw that Macy was there, I decided to go home instead.
I sighed.
I hope both of them will come around at each other soon. It's really hard looking at them both hurting. They're together but they're still far from getting whatever is going on with them fixed.
