Chapitre 111: Getting Better

The nurse smiled at Athasia, "I know you've been getting better, but I want you to get up and try walking again, okay?" she said.

Athasia nodded, "Yes, thank you." 

She felt like she could barely stand on her own two feet, let alone walk across the room. The nurse nodded, gave Athasia another smile  full of encouragement. After a moment, she began slowly making her way towards the door. It wasn't too far, only around five or six steps. She took two more steps before falling back down.

Athasia's hand immediately grabbed the side of the couch, and she nodded back to the nurse to let her know that she's okay

She stood once more, leaning against the wall for support, and then tried again. This time she took three steps. She kept moving, even if she felt every muscle in her body protest. By the end of the first step, she had made it all the way from the bed to the door.
