Two months ago...
It's all over.
Do you hear me?
It wasn't how it was supposed to be! You could've killed her.
I heard a faint voice as I found myself regain my consciousness. A groan escaped my mouth but as soon as I opened my eyes they shut down immediately for the brightness. But then slowly, I opened my eyes and looked around to find myself in what looked like a hospital room. I had IVs attached to my body and a thin oxygen pipe was attached to my nose. I tried to get up but then my body didn't respond to my wishes and that caused me to fall right back on the bed and before I knew it I had lost my consciousness once again.
Her vitals seems to be stable now.
I think the patient would come to senses any moment now.
Is she alright?
We can't really tell that. As soon as she regains her consciousness, we all shall know it.
It's a relief!
I could hear those people speak and could literally feel their stares on my body but I couldn't move. I just couldn't feel my body and it became frustrating for me. Suddenly, I felt something cold on my face and it when I began to feel everything.
I felt the cool air touching my skin and I could literally smell something medicinal and it was when I found myself opening my eyes and then looked frantically.
"Where is thi-s place?" I murmured as I stared only at the ceiling of the room but then recognized the place as a hospital room.
I was admitted.
"W-What? What happened?" I questioned myself and tried to get up but then stopped when I felt the needles inserted into my hand as IV drips.
Nobody was in the room and I expected for someone to be near to offer me some water. I could feel my throat dried up and the moment all I needed was water. But then questions arose on my mind thinking how was I admitted to the hospital and what really happened.
How did I end up here?
I wondered and tried to think of whatever I remembered and then like a spear being thrown, memories of what exactly happened flashed through my mind and it was when I remembered everything.
"Z-Zachary," was the only name that came out of my mouth.
"Zachary. Oh my god! Wh-What really happened? Where is he?" I muttered to myself before looking around but was soon disappointed when I didn't find him around.
"Where in the world is he? He should have been here, next to me bu-" I spoke irritated and remembered I had met with an accident last night and remembered my car being hit by a truck as my car fell off the bridge and into the river. I looked at my hands and body to find faint bruises all over it and touched my face to find it swollen and had a bandage wrapped my forehead.
The last thing I remembered was...when I opened my eyes I found myself in the water and I thought I would lose consciousness any second. The driver's body was right before me and I had no idea if he was dead or alive but still holding his collar I found myself swimming out of the already broken window towards the surface. It was dark and as I swam towards the surface, I could feel my legs giving in and at the moment I knew we were in deep water...still for the sake of Zachary I swam towards the surface hoping that if I reach the surface I would definitely live but then I felt my lungs giving in and it was when I found myself losing consciousness.
"But where is he?" I thought and then tried to get rid of the drips before deciding upon investing about his whereabouts on my own.
"You better have a good reason for being absent while I regained senses Mr. Zachary Udolf Sullivan else you are going to have it from me," a sharp pain crossed my body when my foot touched the cold ground. Still, hissing in pain I held the sides of the bed and gradually yet slowly walked towards the door. My legs seemed to be stable for me to walk on my own but still, I could feel the pain hitting my body with every step I took.
"Where are you, Zachary? Damn it!" I cursed under my breath as I walked out of my room but as I was just about to cross another room, the voice of a news reporter reporting in tv stopped me in my tracks and I looked at it only to gasp in shock.
The headlines were about Zachary. They showed us some videos of him standing on the balcony of our house looking at particularly nothing. He looked terrible but what shocked me was the headline which read.
A month anniversary to the famous businessman Mr. Zachary Udolf Sullivan's wife.
And then they showed the viewers some videos of me with him at all the events we attended together.
"What the hell!" I cursed as I realized what was going on but then it hit me.
"Wait! A month? Was I out for a month? And they think I am dead? Wait! Am I actually dead?" I yelled and looked around before pinching myself only to end up hissing in pain.
"What the fuck?"
"T-This got to be some type of joke. And Zachary that fool.. does he even know I am alive? What exactly is going on over here?" I cried as I held the bridge of my nose in aggravation. The moment was short lived when the main door opened and I watched as two men walked in. I recognized the one wearing the white coat as the doctor and the other one... a stranger.
Still, I found myself walking back towards my room and I as I realized Zachary was not near me, I went back to my bed and slept back on it pretending to be out. I could hear the door of my room opening and the footsteps were clearly audible as whoever they were they walked in and stood right beside me.
"Why is her drip not attached to her body?"I heard an angry masculine voice.
"I think the nurse might have got rid of it," the other one spoke professionally and I assumed it as the voice of the doctor.
"Is she alright now? Why has she not regained her consciousness yet?" the angry guy asked and the doctor replied: "It's really strange. She should have already regained her senses because her vitals are clearly normal."
"Do whatever you want to doctor but remember this I want this woman back to senses now. If anything happens to her..." he stopped for a second before continuing with a threatening tone "I will shut this hospital down."
Who is he?
