Nathaniel felt like his head was about to explode, especially his forehead. His eyelids hurt like crazy
when he tried opening his eyes. Moreover, he could only make small movements.
When Nathaniel woke up, he felt his head was about to explode.
Not only did his head hurt, but his cliest did too. There was not a spot on his body that did not hurt. He
tried to move his lands and legs but discovered that everything below his thighs was numb. He could
not feel a thing at all.
He opened his eyes and looked at his surroundings. All he saw were patches of white, which scared
him. When lie saw the hanging bottle by his side, it scared him further. He could still make some faint
noise but could not find out where he was–even turning his head hurt.
His memories started returning, and he remembered going to the lab to find Mel. There he saw ... Next,
he drove out and got into an accident. ‘That‘s right! I was in an accident! A–Am I still alive? Why can‘t I
feel anything in my legs?!‘ Nathaniel panicked when he thought about these things. He called out, “Hey,
somebody, come here. Anybody there?” He tried to get up, but these simple actions felt difficult.
Fortunately, somebody rushed to his bedside. “Nathaniel!”
Nathaniel did not expect the first person he saw when he woke up to be Melanie. Instantly, he felt rage.
He shouted, “F*ck off!”
“Nat ”
“F*ck off! The further, the better!” He did not want to see her, at least not for now. The moment he saw
her, his brain was full of disgusting images.
As his thoughts ran wild, he wanted to throw something at Melanie but did not have the strength. He
only had enough energy to loosen the needle at the back of his hand. “Nathaniel, don‘t get emotional.
Let me call the nurse. You calm down, calm down.” Melanie quickly found a nurse. The nurse replaced
the needle, adjusted the speed of the drip, and instructed, “The medicine has finished dripping. You
can move your limbs a little, but not too much. If the needle becomes crooked, I will have to poke it
again.” “What?” Nathaniel was confused. “Can I still move my legs?”
“Of course!” The nurse looked at him with a puzzled expression. “After the effect of the medicine has
passed, you will be able to, but don‘t be too quick. Do it slowly.”
“I have not been amputated?” Nathaniel asked as he tested the movement in his legs. He did not dare
to believe it riglit away as lie thought he had gotten amputated.
That tree was huge, and he banged straight into it. He did not know what had happened next. When
Nathaniel woke up, he was in the hospital and had no feeling in his legs. He instinctively thought of the
TV shows where amputations happened. “Who told you that we amputated you? Your legs are not
injured. You only broke two ribs, but the surgery was a success. All you have to do now is rest well and
recover.” As soon as the nurse explained the situation, she added, “Stop moving!”
Then she took the tray and walked out.
Perhaps Nataniel was in his licad, or the effects of the anesthetic were just wearing off. He could feel
his legs move. Altliough it felt weak, it was vivid. He put in more strength but did not see his legs move.
All that was visible was thic blanket covering him.
