Stella's P.O.V.
There was an immense pain in my head. I groaned hard while trying to open my eyes. Everything was blurred. There were several voices around me. Sounds of sirens, someone was shouting loudly and I really wanted to make him shut up. I focused hard to open my eyes but failed to do so. Suddenly, I felt that someone lifted me. I tried to raise my hand to grab something but…. It was looking like …. I didn’t have energy to do so.
“Andrea… please stay with me”, the person was calling me tried to talk with me. The voice was very familiar to me but I was not getting the name of the owner of the voice. I tried to look at him but my head started spinning.
The darkness was trying to consume me. I fought hard to wake up myself but at last I gave up.
“Andrea…. Andrea…. don’t sleep”, I heard him yelling again. I wanted to wake myself up but gave up and let the darkness consume me.
A shrill noise woke me up. It was like a mechanical beeping. I groaned again as I still had a sharp pain in my head. Not only my head but also my whole body was paining. It felt like that I was stuck under tons of bricks. I was not able to move a single finger.
I tried to open my eyes again. “Somebody please stop this sound”, I pleaded to nobody in my mind. It was really painful.
After a lot of efforts, I finally succeeded in opening my eyes. My eye lids were so heavy that it almost exhausted me. Suddenly, I felt someone hands on my forehead. I tried to look at the person. Everything was still blurred.
“Andrea…. are you alright?” I heard the same voice that I heard before. Why did he was calling me Andrea? Who is Andrea?
“Aaaah….. this voice… it is increasing my headache”, I complaint to myself.
“Call the doctor, Now”, I heard him again and I panicked at the name of doctor.
My eyes instantly opened wide and it freaked me out after looking at an unfamiliar room. It had white plain walls and a plain window one side. The curtains were also white. Where the hell I was. Did I die and was in hell because there was no way I would reach to heaven.
I turned my head towards another direction and I saw a big weird machine that was beeping constantly. There were some random lines moving across the monitor. There was no one in the room. I looked at myself and I panicked again. Some weird wires were attached to my hands and…. I screamed aloud.
I was on the hospital bed. Since the day, I could remembered myself, I was scared of hospitals, doctors and ….. and…. The nurses with those…. Long…. Thick…. Needles. Yeah... I am scared of needles and pricking by nurses and doctors.
Suddenly, the door burst opened and I instantly stopped screaming when I saw a Greek God running towards me with a worried face???????
“Andrea…. what happened”, he asked me with sorry worry and his voice … it was like a good song for my ears.
I was looking at him dumbfounded when I saw the white coat. My expressions suddenly changed in horror and I screamed again.
I tried to speak but my throat hurt like hell. The Greek God instantly took a glass of water from the table and raised my head a little. He put the glass on my lips and motioned me to drink. His hand was in the back of my head rested on my shoulder and it was giving me a tingling sensation where his hand touched my skin.
I gulped down a few sips from the glass that soothed my aching throat and then signaled him to remove the cup. He put down the glass on the table again and laid my head gently on the bed again. I was so engrossed in him that I didn’t notice the white coat who had my wrist in his hand.
When I came to my senses back, I instantly try to pulled my wrist out of his hold and started panicking again.
“Andrea… hey… look at me…. He is a doctor… he is no harm to you… let him do his work please”, the Greek God pleaded to me while holding me from my shoulder and I looked at him blinking continuously. He was so handsome…. No… no… he was so beautiful.. his deep green eyes were holding so much worry right now. His beautiful brownish black hairs were floating in the air whenever he jerked his head a little. His fine jawline….wait…. what was I doing?
I was in the hospital and I was drooling over a ….. over a… Greek God.
“Andrea… please let him do his work”, he said again to me and I nodded dumbly but why is he calling me Andrea again and again. I was confused now.
The white coat came forward and passed me a genuine smile. I tried to smile but failed miserably.
“I think you have a phobia towards the doctors”, he chuckled and I rolled my eyes. Yeah… right… I had a phobia since I was 3 years old.
“Well let me introduce myself to you Ms. Hudson. I am Dr. John. You came to hospital after a fatal accident and you were critical when brought here. You have a fractured skull, a few broken ribs, your right toe was fractured and some injuries at your lower limb. We did several operations in order to save you. You were in comma from last 6 months and now you woke up, I need to check you for any kind of memory loss or concussion”, he said to me and I looked at him dumb founded.
What was he talking about? An accident??? So many injuries????? And…. And…. Coma for 6 months??????
I felt my head spinning strongly. It was lot to process. Wait…. Did he just called me … Ms. Hudson??????
There must be some mistake…. I am not Ms. Hudson….. I tried to speak again but he signaled me to stop. I shut my mouth again and looked at him weirdly.
“Ms. Hudson, I want to inform you that due to injuries in your lungs, I would be better for you not to speak for some more days. You are not properly healed and any kind of movement other than breathing could harm your lungs more”, he informed me and then pulled out a little torch out of his pocket.
“Now… please follow my finger”, he said to me and started waving his finger in front of my eyes while lightening the torch straight to my eyes.
I scoffed in my mind. Great … now… I couldn’t talk for few more days. He again called me Ms. Hudson and I really wanted to know why????
