Serendipity - Finding something good, without looking for it.
After waking up from an accident, Katy finds herself looking at the world in a different light. With diagnosed Post Traumatic Amnesia, Katy sets out on a mission, along with some trusted...
Because after finally agreeing to some food at 4am, Zak placed me on the couch and headed off into the kitchen to make it himself. But by the time he came back, I had fallen asleep.
I had woken up to find myself covered with my bedding, painkillers sat on the coffee table, a bottle of water beside them and a note telling me that he had to go home. Screwing the note up, I pushed the painkillers down my gullet to stop the impending throbbing that had started at the back of my skull.
Sighing, I laid back and turned my attention back to the ceiling. This time it was illuminated by the break of day, as the warm sun flooded my apartment from the gap in my curtains. Taking a small breath, I decided it was now or never, and pulled myself up off the couch in favour of a shower and doing that research I had thought about last night.
Preferably before my legs got any hairier and I start to resemble a yeti or better yet, a Sasquatch.

Freshly washed, shaved and feeling an ounce of normalcy, I heaved myself around and crashed onto the couch. Looking at the coffee table, I moved the flowers aside and pulled out my laptop.
"Right, let's see what happened.." I spoke to myself and went to power it on when the door knocked.
Shall I ignore it?
I could...
Just make out I'm not ho-
My thoughts were cut short when the door opened and Billy came into view with a phone stuffed between his shoulder and ear as he carried his coffee. His eyes zoned in on my latest wound making them narrow instantly.
Abandoning the idea of closing the front door, he came over, closed the laptop lid down and hung up.
"You've got two seconds to explain how."
I stuttered, blanched and hesitated until he got up and closed the door.
"Well?"
"I fell over. Last night." I admitted.
"On what? How?" He asked.
"My robe got caught around my crutch, uh- there was some banging.. I panicked." I admitted.
"Panicked as in you thought you were being attacked or in the car?" He asked.
"Both? I don't know, I don't remember anything of the crash Billy, but.. Well I smelt gasoline and panicked. When I tried to go back to my room, I fell." I nodded to the floor.
"Jeeze Katy, why didn't you ring me straight away?" He asked moving my hair back to look at it.
"It looks worse than it is. I'm fine, really."
"That's not the point, I would have came over no matter what time, Dian-"
"Zak was here." I blurted out making him pause and my breath to stop.
