Capítulo 12: 12) A “Golden” Recovery
There I laid, in the bed with the sun beaming in my face, waking me up from being unconscious for…
Wait how long have I been asleep??
I started panicking and looking around frantically. Honestly, I didn't even know where I was laying down but the room looked like an infirmary of some sort.
"Oh, you're finally awake. You took a pretty nasty blow to the head.."
A woman with long, brown hair and eye bags sat across from my bed, writing something down on a check board.
"Sorry, but who are you? I don't think I've seen you around before…" I asked while priming myself up in the bed to sit up straight.
"Gojo didn't tell you about me? God, he's so lousy.."
"There's a lot of things he hasn't told me."
The brown haired woman rolled her chair close to the bed. Now that I'm getting a better look, her sleep deprivation and unbothered face is kinda cute!
"I'm Shoko Ieiri, or better known as JJTs medical genius. When/if you get hurt, you'll be sent to me and I'll fix you right up…or something like that."
"Oh, well thank you! How long was I out doc?"
She looked at her check board and looked back up with me.
"About 3 days."
WHAT?
I didn't even take that much damage!! Yuta punched me in the face ONE good time!!
"I-I don't think I understand.."
"Well, your CE dropped below critical levels and you don't possess RCT to heal your wounds. Not only did you have multiple injuries, none too serious might I add, but you also had barely any CE to sustain said injuries. Your reserves are massive, so naturally having to fill up that much without any technique to replenish CE is bound to make you sleep for a few days. It IS the body's best way of restoring itself."
I sank back in the bed quietly and tucked myself in the blanket.
"So when can I leave…"
"Hmm.. Your rate of recovery has been speeding up since yesterday so I think one more day and you should be on your feet just fine."
How…
How did I manage to waste 4 days of preparation before the trip. IT'S NOT EVEN A TRIP!! I HAVE TO KILL THINGS!!
"Well, I'll leave you to it then." Shoko got up out of her seat and walked out the room quietly. My window was open so I could hear her use a lighter.
Didn't know she was a smoker..that makes her a bit less attractive.
Anyways, I looked around my for phone. It sat on the nightstand to my right, so I grabbed it and…it was cracked. Of course. I have the absolute WORST luck when it comes to mobile devices!
I checked the groupchat.

>Furō is typing…
>Yuta: FURŌKAWA!!!!
>Maki: Look who's back
>Panda: did you have a good sleep?😂
>Toge: 🫡
>Furō: i hate you guys😑
I set my phone back down and looked out the window. I'm starting to realize that my flaws could be detrimental to my life if not dealt with soon. But I'm not talented like Yuta and can use RCT and I sure as hell don't have the Six Eyes that Gojo possesses. I can't even fight with Maki on equal standing yet..
I need to work, and I need to work fast.
I heard the inhaling and exhaling outside the room. So Shoko never left, just went out to smoke. Thank god I can't smell all those chemicals.
"Feel free to come in." Shoko spoke but it was a bit muffled, along with the other voice I heard.
Then Yuta, my biggest opp, entered the room. My face went sour almost immediately.
"So the cheater decided to visit. DOESN'T EVEN TRY TO USE HIS CHEATS TO HEAL ME!" I pointed my finger at him while shouting.
"W-well I tried! It's just—"
"It's just what!"
"The remaining amount of your body's CE rejected my healing?? I don't know, it might have something to do with your cursed energy property. Everytime I tried to heal you, my RCT would just burn away like water evaporating."
I sat there with my jaw dropped.
I guess I can't be mad when it's my own body that refuses to accept healing from others.
"Shit, I apologize." I said solemnly.
"It's okay. Let me know when you're out so we can do something before we leave!" Yuta opened the door, waved his hand, and gently closed.
"I'LL BE OUT TOMORROW!!" I yelled out the window that was still open.
I turned back away and stared at the ceiling for few seconds, lost in my thoughts about what's to come next. But after not much stray thoughts, I got on my phone and got VERY comfortable.
'I'll relax while I can..'
And after a while, the day would over and I'd FINALLY be released from this bed!
