I woke up a few hours later, all numb and in ghost pain. The musty smell filled my nose yet again as Clara removed the mask from my face. I coughed.

"How do you feel?" Asked Clara.

"Well, not too bad..." I replied after a few minutes of playing with my numbed fingers

"Good," she continued, "things went so well you don't have to stay the night, you are free to go when you're ready."

A few hours later, I grabbed my coat and purse and hobbled out into the street on the crutches I'd rented. I pulled out my phone from my bag and dialled Adria's number.

"Hey bæ!" She chirped into the phone. " 'ello love!" I said in my imitation British accent for no apparent reason.

"You're out already? Wow. Well, I'll grab Katty and well be there in fifteen. Ok?"

"Okay." I replied, and hung up.

I looked up at the blue sky, it really was pretty. The birds flew overhead while being kind enough not to take a crap on my head.

I looked to my left to see Kat jumping out of AJs shiny black BMW. She'd been saving up for 4 years for that thing, every penny she earned plus all her birthday money. Kat and I didn't have cars, we normally drove with AJ.

"Jan!" Said kat.

"Hello friend." I sighed .
