Caged by him

33

I woke up the next morning in a strange room. Where am I, I could not move my head or my body very much, I felt frozen in a white bed, I could hear a machine beeping, it was the sound of my heart.

I was in a hospital, but how, I can't remember anything, I know who I am, but my life is a blur. The last thing I remember was walking home from college.

I hear a man knocking in the door, Star. I looked at him in confusion not knowing who he was.

He walks over to my bed side, kissing my forehead. Do I we know each other I replied.

Yes, it's me Roman, you are my wife, we have been married for one year.

What, I can't be married? I am still in college finishing up. I don't remember you.

His eyes looked sad that I could not remember him, well who ever he is, he must really love me.

I-m sorry I didn't mean to upset you, Roman. I just don't have any clue who you are or how I ended up here.

What hospital are we in?
We are not in a hospital, well you were in one but I decided to move you back home. Everything is set up professionally and I hired around the clock doctors and nurses to take care of you.

How long have a I been out for, I feel so week and confused.

You have been in a coma for three months.

Are you kidding me, I must be so behind in school.

How did this happen to me?

I couldn't build up the courage to tell her what happened, she would hate me forever. I didn't mean to hurt this bad, I was so angry with her, I lost all control that night.

Well, you were in a car accident love.

Oh, mm did I hurt the other driver?

No no they are fine, don't worry about them.

I will let you rest now Star, I love you, giving me a kiss on my forehead. Bye Roman.

I was alone once again in the room, my head hurt so bad, and my legs were numb. I couldn't feel my legs.

I open my eyes and see a doctor and nurse in my room, the nurse injected something in my IV, it helped a lot with the pain.

Star, can you hear me, I nodded yes.
My name is Dr. Pravo and this is your nurse, Carina.

I am sure you have lots of questions for me, I am very glad that you have woken up.

Your head was severely injured, and your L4 and L5 also suffered from the impact. Roman hired the best doctors and surgeons, we managed to prevent Permanent paralysis in your legs.

You will require intense physical therapy.

What about my memory loss Dr. Pravo?

His facial expressions let me know it was not any good news.

Star, as of now we are not sure if your memory will ever come back, of course we will do everything we can to help your regain some bits and pieces of your life but you might never regain it fully.

Oh, I spoke softly ok.
Listen this is a lot to take in all at once, I don't want you to worry too much, you are lucky to be alive.

Your husband is a good man, he really does care for your well being, he slept in that sofa next to your bed every single night since the accident. He placed his hand on my shoulder and smiled, you are in very good hands, now please rest.
