*THE NIGHT SHE WOKE UP

Mira's POV

The moment my sight was no longer blurry and my hearing is no longer distorted, I looked around the room and saw several people.

"Mira..." I heard a breathless exclaim of a woman, sitting in a wheelchair, just beside me.

Mabilis akong lumingon at nakita kong umiiyak siya habang hawak hawak ang kamay ko. Hindi niya halos mapigilan ang pag-hikbi niya, "I'm so glad you're finally awake..."

I was just about to answer her, but my voice came out as a groan instead. I could not speak.

Seeing my struggle, the woman beside me stopped me from speaking, "Wag mo munang pilitin ang sarili mo. Give yourself some time."

I slowly nodded at what she said. I just watched the nurses around me did their thing as I remained awake. Doctors also went into the room and did some physical examination on me, most especially my ability to response to them.

After some time, they raised half of the cot bed, so I was able to sit without trying physically to do it. Also, after the examination they did to me, I was able to collect my voice and strength to speak.

"Sigurado kang wala ka nang nararamdaman na sakit, ha?" tanong ulit ng babaeng nasa tabi ko. Maliit ko siyang nginitian at dahan-dahang umiling.

A doctor advanced to me and started asking questions while the woman in the wheelchair and the man, whose been silently watching me, behind the woman was watching me.

"Can you remember the last thing happened before you became unconscious?" the doctor asked.

I looked at the people inside the room and tried looking for answers into my head.

But I found nothing.

"N-No..." I hesitantly answered.

The doctor nodded as he started writing something while the woman beside me gasped.

"How about these people, can you remember who they are?" iminuwestra niya yung dalawang tao na nasa tabi ko.

Tumingin ako sa kanila pero wala akong maalala kung sino sila. Saka ko lang rin naisip, hindi ko rin pala alam ang pangalan ko. What?

"N-No..."

"D-Doc, what's the meaning of this?" the woman beside me asked, shaking.

"We need to further assess the situation, ma'am." the doctor answered.

Tumingin ulit siya sa'kin, "Kahit anong naiisip o naalala mo, pwede mo bang ikwento sa'kin?" mahinahong tanong ulit ng doktor.

Sinubukan kong mag-isip ng kahit ano pero wala akong maisip. Wala akong maalala. Ni hindi ko alam kung sino ako, nasaan ako, sino itong mga taong kasama ko, at kung ano ano pa. I suddenly became frustrated that I tried harder to remember even just a piece of memory but that only resulted to an undescribable pain on my head, "Aw!" I held my head for support.

"Don't force yourself to remember." Narinig kong sabi ng doktor

Hinintay ko munang mawala ang sakit bago ako tumingin ulit sa doktor, "A-Anong nangyayari? Bakit wala akong maalala? Sino ako—Sino ba kayo? Bakit ako nandito?" I started to become hysterical.

"Mira," the woman beside me calmed me down by caressing my arm near to her, "Don't be afraid. We're here..."

Sa 'di malamang dahilan, mas lalo akong nakaramdam ng takot at pagkabalisa. Nag-simula na 'kong umiyak. Dun ko lang din napakiramdaman na hindi ko magalaw halos kabuuan ng katawan ko. I felt so weak and defenseless. Adding to my fear are the unfamiliar faces looking at me.
