Nessa's eyes fluttered opened, she blinked severally as she studied her surroundings, shielding her eyes from the harsh light in the room. The strong scent of antiseptic indicated she was in a hospital room. Feeling the pain brewing gradually in some parts of her body, she winced.
Unable to move her right leg as the bed cover seemed to be pinned against another body, she tried to move it, which made the person jerked awake, "hey, how are you feeling?"starring back at Roarke's tired face, she nodded her head.
Unable to speak, Roarke walked to the bedside table and handed her water, "better?" He asked after she downed the fresh water.
"What happened?" Trying to recalled how she got to the hospital but nothing came.
"You were in an car accident while with the girls at the restaurant" he brushed her hair with his fingers, soothing her as he narrated everything that happened.
