Hospital

Waking up again, Josh didn't feel any pain,but his eyes felt swollen, the bed he laid in this time, wasn't his.

He touched himself, then realised he was wearing a hospital gown, he'd done it, he was finally free from the curse.

Turning around he heard Blake's voice, "easy there big boy," he chuckled.

"I know how great it must be to be alive, you passed out last night, the accident impact put a toll on your body, well as you know, my seat belt saved my life and I came out with little scratches," Blake explained, not leaving a room for Josh to ask questions or even talk.

Blake finally stood up to call the doctor after some minutes of awkwardness.

"How are we feeling this morning Josh," asked the doctor, as he checked for Josh's vitals, pulse and blood levels, then he pressed Josh's stomach, neck and hands.

"Do you feel any pain?" asked the doctor.

"No, I feel weak and hungry." said Josh, his throat feeling dry and his coming out dry.

"I'll notify the nurses to bring lunch for you." The doctor said, while walking out of his room after writing a few things on his chart.

"It's good to have you back," winked the doctor at Josh after she stopped a little to take a cursory look at Josh.

After an hour, the nurse walked in with a new drip to replenish the old one that just finished and also brought a light meal of oats and fruits for Josh. Blake had already gone home to get some rest leaving Josh alone in the hospital...

While he was eating, his mind went back to the events of yesterday and what he suffered because of a maniac.

"Excuse me," came the abrupt knock from the door.

"Hi, my name is officer Edward, you're Josh right?" asked officer Edward.

"Yes I'm Josh," he said, taking a sip of water, while taking his time to eat.

"I know you just woke up, but I have a few questions having to do with the death of miss. Blair woods," explained officer Edward, taking out his little booklet from his breast pocket.
