CAROLINE'S POV
I heard slow beeps somewhere near me. I slowly opened my eyes. I blinked a few times to adjust my eyes to the light. I was in a hospital. My body was plugged onto tubes and someone was standing at the corner of the room. A nurse. There were balloons around the room. And pictures. Of Phoebe, Elly and I. Pictures of Damian and I. Pictures of my parents. I tried to call the nurse but my voice didn't come out. I slowly lifted my hand in hopes of her seeing me. And she did. As soon as she saw me she rushed to my side.
"Hey sweetie."
I tried to talk but she stopped me
"Don't try too much. Its usual to feel like that. Try to move your fingers and toes a little. Try to speak a little too." she said with a smile
I cleared my throat and tried speaking
"H- how long... wa-was I out?" I asked her
"5 months"
"WHAT!" I yelled
That hurt my throat
...
"5 months?" I asked her
