Chapter 376: Out of the blue

Jacob woke up with a grumbling stomach as his nose involuntarily started sniffing the air. There was a delicious aroma piercing his consciousness, making his body aware of his surrounding.

His mind pondered if he could be dreaming, but then again, why would he be asking that if he was. It just did not make sense as his nose continued to enjoy the enticing smell of delicious food.

"If only I could cook like that." Jacob thought to himself, feeling the lack of food on his stomach. He suddenly remembered the burger he barely ate for dinner last night before the staff paged him again.

He tried to pry his eyes open, but it was a struggle. It was not a hangover since he barely drank last night with his new friend, but he was tired, extremely tired.

His alarm had not gone off yet, so it must still be early, but he could already see the bright light coming from his window. He was not due to the hospital this morning, so he planned to stay late on the bed.
