Part 12

I was lying in a hospital bed, monitors attached to me by black, blue and red wires. I was looking up at the ceiling, staring at the square Patten. I sat up to look around. In the corner of the room was a grey TV, upon a wooden table. Next to me was a little side table, covered with get well soon cards, and a vase of pink, yellow and white flowers at the back. There was a little window showing the outside world. It was morning, like from where I came from. The golden sun was just peeking over the tops of the buildings, birds chirping merely.

I turned to the other side of me to see...mum lying at the side of the bed. She was asleep, I looked closer to see the marks where her tears had been. I looked round the room and spotted a green blanket at the bottom of the bed. I grabbed it and put it round mum's shoulders. This made her wake up.

She stated at me with a sorrowful look then wrapping her arms around me and crying her heart out.

a doctor came to the door and walked over to me. "Do you know where you are?" he asked.

"In hospital" I replied, he smiled, then going onto the usually questions like name, age, birthday, the normal questions to make sure there is no memory loss.

"You were in a coma for the past ten days. We didn't know whether you would wake up. It seems as if you were ran over by a car. You have several burns and a broken leg. You mum rang us about the accident. And didn't leave your side, not once."

I looked at mum and smiled tears welling up in my eyes, as they did i shouted "mamma" spreading my arms wade welcoming her hug.

This was a beginning of a new chapter in my life.
