"Mum... Dad..." I tried calling my loved ones who were right in front of me.
I tried waving my hands in front of their face. But there were no responses from them. Mum was still crying and dad was just consoling her. But I'm fine now right? I'm sitting up and... Hold on.
What is this?
What in the world is happening?
I finally realised the situation I was in. I was standing in the middle of a bed, literally. My lower body went right through the bed. Not only that, right through the thigh of someone lying on the bed. He was in the hospital gown, with his left leg elevated with a cast. I feel something stuck at my throat.
As I looked at the body lying on the bed, I felt my skin crawl. I took a deep breath, and turned myself to look at the face of the patient.
"Fuck." That was me lying right there.
Unconscious, head wrapped neatly in bandages, a slight bruise clearly visible on my left cheek, a corner of my lips cut with blood still visible. My nose perforated with a breathing tube to probably to facilitated breathing for my clearly collapsed nose bridge.
But how could I be there, when I'm standing right here. Or rather, why am I standing here, when I am obviously supposed to be unconscious there?!
*Knock knock* The door swung open. A middle aged man with a white coat walked in with 2 nurses following behind him.
"Mr and Mrs Yang?" He greeted my parents.
"Yes, we are." Dad replied.
"Doctor, is my son alright?! Why-why hasn't he woken up yet?!" My mum was still crying. My heart felt torn watching that scene. I really wanted to head over and hug her from the back and tell her I am alright - even though I'm clearly not.
I stayed calm, and waited for the Doctor's explanation. I really wanted to know what happened to me.
The doctor signaled one of the nurses at the back who handed over a folder to him. He pushed up his glasses and examined the contents. He then turned over to my parents and gave a nod.
"The vital signs of Mr. Yang Jun has stabilised for now. The other tests showed no abnormalities as well. Due it is likely due to the impact of the collision and the way his head was injured that resulted in a concussion, hence his comatose. As for when he will wake up..." the doctor paused, and gave a reluctant sigh, "I'm afraid I'm unable to give you a satisfactory answer. Some patients wake up in a day, others... perhaps a few years." The doctor closed the folder and handed it back to the nurse.
"We will continue to monitor him and inform you of any progress." The shorter nurse at the back commented.
The doctor gave another bow before he left the ward with the nurses. My mum slipped into the chair at the side and held my hand (the me on the bed, of course).
"My poor boy..." I could see the tears welling up in her eyes again. I really want to hug her now.
"Don't worry mum. Being robust is the only good point of Xiao Jun. He will wake up soon." Another familiar voice came from the door. A lady with shoulder length hair walked into the room. It was Yang Ting - my older sister. Wait. Did she just said that the only good point about me was being robust? How rude. -.-
"Mum, Dad, LiangZe came to bring you guys back first. I'll stay here for tonight okay? Go back and get some food and clothes. Don't worry too much and fall sick." She smiled and continued. With that, she urged our dad to bring our mum down to my Brother-in-Law.
When they finally left the ward, albeit unwillingly, Yang Ting came to sit at the side of my bed.
"Stupid boy! How could you let us worry about you like that!" She was angry.
"Do you have any idea... How anxious we were when we heard you got into an accident?! You better wake up soon... Wake up soon and apologize to Mum and Dad. Wake up soon so we can finally have dinner together again..." Her voice softened. "Please... Idiot brother..." And I saw a pellet fell from her eyes
Yang Ting was actually crying?!I made Yang Ting cried?! I felt a sting in my heart. Yang Ting always had a tomboyish personality since young. I had always been close with Yang Ting as she was my only older sibling. We fought, played, studied, basically did everything together - but it was a rare sight to see her cry. There was this once when we were both knocked down by a bicycle while out, both of us got injured and I was crying from the pain. But Yang Ting remained cool and helped me up and back home although she was bleeding much more than me. On the day I left house for University, she actually took leave from work to accompany over to G City. The only other time I saw her tear was when she got married to LiangZe. Even then I was crying much more than her... Hey, she's my only sister okay.
I recalled what the doctor mentioned a few minutes ago. Some patients wakes up in a day, others takes a few years. Since I'm here right now, does this mean that if i tried getting back in my body I can wake up? I've got to do this. I shouldn't let my family cry about me anymore.
I moved to the other side of the room and faced my physical body lying on the bed. Just as though I was starting a race, I charged forward and leaped onto the bed. I closed my eyes, hoping that it worked.
...
Nope. I fell right through the bed. But it did not hurt a single bit. Maybe because I do not possess a physical body now. I stood up again, and looked at my body one more time. Nope, no changes. My body is just lying there.
Sigh. What should I do now?
"You. Get out of the room."
Hm? What was that?
"You." A mysterious voice echoed in the room.
"Me?" I asked out loud to the mysterious voice. I turned to look at Yang Ting. But she was still looking at my body and crying. Was I the only one who heard it?
"Yes, you."
He heard me?! "Who are you?" I asked.
"... Stop wasting my time. Get out of the room now."
"Excuse me?! Is that how you ask a favor from someone?" I was annoyed by his way of speaking.
"Looks like I have to do this the hard way." Huh? What was that?
"Hard way? What do you- AHHHHHHHH! WHAT THE FUCK?!" Before I could finish my sentence, I felt myself being tossed up in the air and being pulled towards the direction of the door.
"WAHHH WAIT THE DOOR IS CLOSED. WAIT!" I panicked as I was thrown towards the door at an incredible speed. I closed my eyes and braced myself from the impact.
Hmm? There was nothing?
"I warned you. To stop wasting my time." Huh, its the voice again.
I opened my eyes slowly. I was floating in midair in the hospital corridor. There were other patients, visitors and staffs walking around but none of them took notice of me. But most of their eyes were fixed on this handsome guy with dark hair. His fringe was long, but were neatly swept to the right revealing his sharp eyes. I've got to admit that his features were really decent, not as handsome compared to me but, I could tell why he garnered the attention of the crowd. Then again, it could be his dressing... He was in a long sleeve black robe - much like those you would expect to see on those GongZi (公子) in Water Margin novels (水浒传), tied with a white sash as a belt. There were some small accessories hanging from his wrists and the belt. He was tall though, so although the dressing was weird, he actually pulled it off pretty well.
Wait. Why am I analyzing him? Why am I floating here in the first place? I tried to move around but ended up only struggling around in mid air. Hmm? I felt an intense glare from the side. It was from that guy. He was staring at me with his sharp eyes.
"Evil spirit, it's time for you to go." Wait what? It's him?
"Evil spirit? Me?!" I cried out in bewilderment. I was still in the midst of figuring out what happened to me but someone is calling me an evil spirit?
"BE GONE!" He took out a white porcelain flask from his left sleeve and flung its contents towards me.
Wait, wait, am I being exorcised now?!
