"Just sleep it off, am giving you a reason to not go back to the army, I'll take care of you"...
She is groggily trying to sit up but sleep takes over.
********
She slept for five hours before Grace took her to a the hospital. She then slept for Fourteen more hours at the hospital before she finally woke up.
When she woke up, she knew she was in the hospital because,she could hear the hospital PA system...She woke up and sat erectly, still thinking her eyes are still closed because she can't see anything. She puts her fingers to her eyes, her eyes are open but she can't see anything.
She rubbed her eyes and opened them again but nothing.
She stood up and clenched the railing of the bed
"Mom, mom..."
An intern nurse who was at the help desk of the VIP hears screams and machines breaking decides to call her mother after witnessing the mess in the room.
"Hello?, anyone? mom?..." She has her hands spread looking distraught.
"Hey, miss Samantha, your mom is coming, I have already called her, stay there, I'll come get you".
"Ok..." she kept looking around her, her body felt foreign to her, she did not feel like herself.
"My name is Jyna, am an intern nurse here"
"What is wrong with me?"
She was shaking heavily, her eyes where red and bruised from all the rubbing, they had become red, her bare feet where bleeding from the broken machine parts she stepped on. Jyna quickly helped move her to a new room and and went to get supplies to disinfect her wounds.
Her mom suddenly came running into the room.
"Sam it's mom... thank God you are awake now".
"What did you do?"she asked her mother, her rapidly blinking eyes looking crazy.
"Sam baby, let's talk about it at home, when you get discharged, I'll have you discharged today, we can talk then".
" What did you do?" she screamed, her voice with every hint of hate. Grace, hinted to Jyna who had come bearing medical supplies to leave the room.
"Am sorry Sam, i just wanted you to stay home with me" she said after Jyna's exit.
" What.... what's wrong with me? my eyes what did you do?" she asked again looking around,trying to find exactly where her mother was, following her voice.
"I'll call the doctor for you...."
" Don't go, don't leave me here...tell me what's wrong with me, mom what's wrong with me...."
" ... "
"mom, mom...."
She bites her lip as tears streams down her face that was covered in sweat.
A short while later Jyna came back in the room again.
"I'll disinfect your wounds, Jyna told her"
" You don't need to unless you know what's wrong with me, ... leave me alone".
Jyna is a blubber mouth and didn't waste time.
"Well, i just heard that it's a case of methanol....You ingested about 12ml of methanol and that caused..."
Dr Nigel had heard their conversation from the door before he came into the room.
"Who are you supposed to be? Dr Nigel asked Jyna.
"Am your internnurse assistant, you see me everyday, I greet you everyday, am that Jyna. Ofcourse, you my doctor has answered my greeting only once but you know me."
" Get out! you are wasting my time."
Jyna looked at Dr Nigel, he was a cold and quiet person and she herself was supprised when he answered her greeting cheerfully that time.
" Jerk" Jyna muttered to herself.
" Just leave now..." he told her without looking at her and got Samantha's medical chart.
"Yes Dr Nigel" Jyna answered dryly.
"Miss Samantha how are you feeling?... ummm, the doctor in charge of your case is currently hold up, so am here to brief you about your current condition in his stead, Am Dr Miller, Nigel Miller". He said looking at Samantha's medical chart.
"I'll tell you how am feeling, when you tell me what's wrong with me, otherwise get to it..." The doctor still looking at her chart smirked.
"Rude bitch" he muttered.
"I heard that"
The doctor looked at her for the first time with amazement.
" Samantha??, My Samantha?" a voice only he could hear.
