(Karsten)
When my eyes opened again, I found myself in a hospital room. A nurse was tending to me while all kinds of tubes had been attached to my body.
At least I was alive or so it seemed like. I tried to get up but the nurse quickly moved.
"No, no, keep lying down. You had surgery so we will take it slow." She came forward and checked my temperature, then jotted down readings from the monitors and adjusted the glucose IV.
I stared down at myself and the same stupid white gown I always teased Arata with covered half my body. My legs stuck out but a plain white sheet had been placed on them.
I didn't even have undergarments on and was pretty sure a urine bag had been attached to me.
"Anyone here for me? Is Arata here? I would like to meet her." I asked the nurse and she smiled.
"Half an hour. Okay! You need to rest. You were shot." Adjusting the IV she finally left the room, leaving me with my muddled thoughts.
