Homecoming [4]

I still felt weak but somehow how I forced open my eyes and the ceiling of the infirmary room came into sight. My vision was blurry at first but in a few minutes it became clear. 

I tried to get up and even succeeded in doing so to an extent but then I fell back on the bed. The weakness and weariness I was feeling right now were way more than anything I'd experienced till now.

However, taking note of the fact that I've awakened the nurse came close to me and helped me to sit up on the bed. 

"How much time was I asleep for?" I asked while she was lifting me up. 

"Three days," she replied.

Ah…well, it wasn't unexpected. I'd already slept for about a week so this was nothing compared to that…I think. 

After sitting straight on the bed I took a look at myself and found myself shirtless. I didn't know why they had not put a cloth over me. Perhaps it wasn't that important of a matter in their eyes.
