Daisy:

I was awakened by the silent chatters inside the room. The sun is already up and I just knew then that I slept longer than I expected. It's already the morning of the next day. I blinked twice and pushed myself up a little so I can sit. Ofelia and Catherine are talking like they've known each other for a long time. I smiled seeing them.

When they noticed me, they both stood up from the couch and approached the bed. "Hey, sweetie." Catherine greeted me with her warm smile.

"Hey." I croaked. "Did I sleep that long? What time is it?" I asked.

"No, you slept just fine. It's 9 a.m. The doctor will come here soon to check up on you. Are you feeling better now?"

I nodded and smiled sadly at her. "I feel better now. I'm really sorry for what happened." I looked at Catherine then to Ofelia. Her expression is so soft that it warms my heart.
