The shattered image - ch 16 Mysterious

Buried in my thoughts, Kaoru started to stir toward the door. He saw I had noticed his movement and mumbled "Your, eh parents, and nurse..." He turned his back toward me and walked through the door. I understood just how awkward this must be for him. To me he was a stranger before me and I was a long lost friend. Though I had been scared off by his sudden outburst about my parents, I couldn't help think just what had happened to them. Accident? But was it really?
Maybe a sudden case of craziness? It could very well be a reason for a cover up... God as long as it wasn't contagious!
I smiled to myself for having such outrageous thoughts cause surely this wasn't any laughing matter. What if it was even more tragic? Like murder?
My heart ached by that though, a severe pain stabbed in my chest.
The door to my room opened and I turned my head toward it. "Miss Tsukino? How are you feeling?"
A nurse peeped in through the door. Her hair was light brown, lips sparkling red. What a beautiful woman.
"Just tired is all.." Considering I had been out for 6 hours, it was kinda odd that I was tired. Not just tired I was actually exhausted. How come I only felt that now?
"It's because your mind is spinning"
"What?" As if she just had read my mind.
"Your exhausting. It's common to see with people passing out from overworking their brain. You probably just realized it now right?"
Wow at least I was normal on one thing - my body reaction.
"I've been filled in with your condition. A doctor will be here soon, in the meantime I will give you some with calming effect."
"Will it stop my mind from spinning?"
She chuckled "Well it will at least give it some rest. It will block some of the thoughts"
It wasn't long till the effect took in after the injection. For the first time in years my mind went blank, It was unbelievable soothing.

The nurse left and I was yet again alone in my room. The drugs kept my mind blank and my body's exhausting demanded some "optional rest". I cuddled myself underneath my blanket, keeping myself warm. Just as I was to close my eyes, a face appeared before me. I don't know if it was the drugs or the exhaustion, but the face was blurry and I couldn't make anything of it. My eyes closed in. I was unable to open them again as I had already given in. I wanted to figure out whom it was, but my mind was so cloudy that I couldn't collect my thoughts together. I felt my body dragging me further and further into complete relaxation till I finally had to give in and let me sleep.
Maybe, just maybe the person would be there when I woke up.....
