Chapter 3: Talk of the Town
??
It's a miracle she's awake after all these years
??
Poor child, she was only 12
??
How long has it been? 8 years?
??
I guess.. what's sadder is the fact that no one came to see her throughout these years
??
I wonder if she remembers anything..
[y/n's POV]
You woke up to faint voices
Your eyes remain shut due to fatigueness, you're too tired to open them
You manage to decipher some of the words they said
[thoughts 💭]
"coma.. 8 years??"
"What are they talking about? Are they talking about me??"
"Ugh why can't I remember anything"
"Forget it, I'm exhausted"
"You head back to sleep, ignoring the whispers"
It's night time and you're already awake
No one came in, you feel relieved
You stare out the window
From your room, you're able to see the the other side of the hospital, the entrance and the parking lot
y/n
It's big. Where am I?
??
A hospital
You turn around, surprised to see the doctor from before
Doc
*smirks* forgot about it already?
*glances at his watch*
Doc
It's only been 3 hours though
y/n
Do all doctors treat their patients like this?
You ask teasingly, knowing that he's teasing you
Doc
Haha sorry, I'm just joking
Doc
You're in St. Mary's
y/n
St. Mary's?
Doc
Yup. Feeling better now?
y/n
Yeah.. *smiles faintly*
Doc
I've been meaning to ask you this but you passed out all of a sudden
Doc
Do you remember anything?
Doc
Why you're here or anything significant?
You stare out the window once again, hoping you'd recall something at least
But your mind's like a blank sheet
You can't remember anything
y/n
I.. I can't remember anything
Doc
Don't worry, it may be due to anesthesia. It happens when someone falls into a coma for a long time
y/n
A coma.. I was in a coma?
Doc's pov
You hold her hands, hoping it'd calm her
Doc
You got into an accident 8 years ago. We believe you were involved in a car accident..
Doc
The news came out later.. 6 were involved, 4 died but 2 survived. You're one of the survivors
Doc's pov
You squeeze her hands harder, knowing what you're about to say next might hurt her
Doc
Those 4 who died.. they're your family members
Doc
That's all the news said, there were no CCTVs, no witnesses. Other than that, we don't really know what happened
Doc
It was tragic, news were trending everywhere. People found out you're one of the survivors
Doc
That's why everyone here knows you and your story. But no one knows what really happened, except you two
y/n
Then.. where's the other survivor?
Doc
Unfortunately, he seemed to have fled the scene. Police managed to obtain DNA from the track of blood left behind
Doc
Rest well. I'll have you checked by tomorrow morning. Goodnight
Tears stream down your cheeks
You're not sad because your family died
You're sad because you can't even remember their faces
