Waiting

(Levar Point of View)

I look down at where her legs are. I can't really see anything from the blankets but her leg shapes see off and aren't even. That could be because her leg was turning purple. I stand up and I go down to the end of the bed. I lift up the blanket but then drop it at what I saw. I didn't get a good view but I can't believe what I just saw. Maybe I just saw it wrong. Ya, that would make sense. It's not like she is actually missing a leg now. I lifted the blanket up again to relook but I saw it right the first time, she has no leg. She is missing her left leg. It's just gone. Did they have to remove it? Why? Did it have to do with it turning purple? It has to. What other reason do they have? But then what was wrong with her leg? I should ask the doctors but I don't know if they would be willing to tell me and I do want to be here for when Asaka wakes up from this. I cover her back up before sitting down in my seat. I lay my head on her chest. I want to be able to hear her heartbeat. I want to be able to hear that she is still alive. If I feel her moving, I will get off but for now, I will just lay here. 

After a few minutes of just laying down on her chest, I start getting uncomfortable from my position. I sit up as I look at her. There is enough room on the bed for me to join but she is going to need that room to heal and I don't want to make her uncomfortable. I want to feel her warmth and touch her skin. She is so soft and warm. I slowly and carefully crawl into bed next to her. I cuddle into her. She is so warm. I relax into her. I can hear her heartbeat and it's surprisingly relaxing. I like being able to hear that she is still alive and right here. So soft and warm. I missed this. I know we were cuddling not long ago but I still miss this. I feel myself getting hungry as I lay there. I don't want to get up because then I have to leave Asaka and I am so comfortable now. I wonder if I should make her breakfast. She has made me breakfast in bed but I don't know when she will make up. Maybe I could make something and make it ready hot so if it is a while, it will still be warm and she could eat it right away without it burning her. That should work and then she won't have to worry about it as she heals. 

I get out of bed before I head into the kitchen. I start looking for what she has to make. She has eggs and berries. I wonder how to make oatmeal. I head back into my room and I grab my phone, search for "oatmeal recipe" and I click on the first one. I look for oats and she does have some. Looking at it, I thought she would have had more but this should work. I measure them out and it's a little more than I need so I will just use them all. I grab milk and everything else. She does have everything that I need so I start making it.

As I cook it, I do end up burning some of the oats but hopefully, this will still work. I look back down at the recipes to add the berries when I realize I didn't need to use eggs and it doesn't look right. What did I make? Maybe I should have translated omleta to English to see what it really is because I thought it was oatmeal but I might be wrong. I wonder if I search it up and will know what I mean. I searched for omleta and omelette show up. I guess that is what I wanted. I search for a recipe for it and it looks a lot more than what I want. I start making it, after all, I don't know how much she will want to eat. I make it all before looking for the tray that she uses for me. As I plate everything, I end up burning my hand, causing me to yell out "shit". I put my hand under cold water as I try to relax. My hand hurts a lot now. It doesn't help that it's my dominant hand. Once my hand stops burning, I dry off my hand before putting some ice in a bag and putting a towel on it to help it stay. I do my best to carry the tray back to the room that Asaka is in and she is already awake.
