Chapter 102
102 Shut Up!
(Tom’s PoV)
After reluctantly leaving my girlfriend, Jane, to go to where my body was staying, I was pulled by unknown force and suddenly I was surrounded by darkness.
I couldn’t see anything other than feeling the strong force pulling me. The idea of losing my ability to see made me panic for a second, but then I saw a ray of light was coming closer and closer to me.
No, it was me getting closer to the ray of light.
As the light was getting bigger and bigger, in the end I was swallowed by the blinding light, causing me to close my eyes to avoid being hurt by it.
All of my senses felt dull. I couldn’t hear, see, smell, speak or even feel anything. It was as if I was thrown into a bright white room without gravity, leaving me floating around with no place to go.
Was I being sent to the right place?
I was wondering in the middle of being senseless. My eyes were still closed. I had no intention to open it since the glaring light was still too bright for me. Even with my eyes closed I could still see the light, what would happen if I opened my eyes?
I could have just surrendered to the situation I was in. As long as I knew I was conscious, I should just wait patiently to finally reach the place my body was in.
.....
I didn’t know how long I have spent in the bright room, but slowly I started to regain my senses.
My feet felt numb. No matter how hard I tried to move it, I couldn’t move it. Then, I felt my stiff fingers touched something soft and nice. My fingers reflexively moved but it was still too stiff to move after all. So, I remained quiet again.
After that, there was no sign for my other senses to improve. Other than the feeling in my fingers and feet, I felt nothing else.
Time passed by and suddenly one day, I could hear some voices around me.
At first it came as buzzing sound, but eventually it became coherent. I could hear some people talk. Even though the language was something I was not familiar with, I could understand it. It was not some special ability to understand the language, many people were fluent in this language.
“After two years, this patient finally shows some changes. Do you think he will wake up soon?”
It was a woman’s voice. Judging from the way she spoke, she must be a nurse.
Does it mean I am in a hospital or a small clinic?
“I hope he could wake up soon. He has been asleep for too long, he might need a hell of therapy to regain his ability to walk after he wakes up.” Another voice chimed in. She sounded hopeful and calm.
“Doctor Gwen has put a lot of efforts for this patient in these couple of months. After having a series of convulsions, this patient really shows some improvements. Let’s hope he will really wake up, and nothing bad will happen to him.”
Convulsions? Me?
I frowned when I heard them talking. There were some information I got from their conversation.
First, I was saved by a person called Doctor Gwen.
Second, I had convulsions during some of these months.
Third, I could basically conclude where I was right now based on their dialect and language. Combining with the story that my late Junior Brother Rizal, may he rest in peace, told me and Jane that I had accidents in England, I was one hundred percent sure that I was either in England, Scotland, or Ireland.
As I realized where I was, I couldn’t help but groan.
The distance between Indonesia and England was too much!
How could I get back to Jane if I were so far away? What if that bastard Sanjaya did something to her?
Only the thought of it made me howled in frustration.
If only, if only Uncle Ben was here. I didn’t even know if he had started looking for me again or not. Even if he did, he couldn’t know where I was, right?
Every possible way out for me to get back to my lover’s side in a hurry was not available, unfortunately.
At that time, I was not thinking clearly as the only thing inside my mind was to get back to Jane as soon as possible.
I totally forgot the fact that I was in comma for two years, which meant some of my body parts would not function well and I needed to get into some physical therapy to return the function of it.
“Ah, do you remember that time?” The voice turned excited.
“Which time?”
“I got night shift that night and I had just finished checking on him and was about to leave him.” The voice was strangely excited and I could hear a hint of lust in it.
Why did I shudder as I heard her talk? Somehow I had a bad premonition from the way she talked.
“Ah, I remember it!” The other woman excitedly replied. “Oh my God, I seriously thought I was too lonely that I imagined things. Who would have thought that he had a big one?”
I shuddered even more as I heard her describe what had happened in lewd manner.
How I wish I could shout at them! Shut the hell up!
