"Hello Kellin." Dr Williams greets me as she walks into the room early the next morning.

"Hi." I say, my voice a little groggy.

I woke up over two hours ago, yet I still feel exhausted.

Yesterday wasn't very eventful. Vic stayed and talked with me for a little while longer. He was mostly catching me up on what I had forgotten.

We didn't talk about too much. Nothing important like before. After a few minutes he told me he had to go because he was supposed to meet some people at the library to do a science project.

Oliver came back a couple minutes later with our food.

It was pretty nice. We talked and joked around while we ate our food. I learned a lot about him.

I asked him simple questions.

Here what I found out:

He doesn't have a favorite color, but he likes purple. He has one sibling, a brother named Tom. Oliver wants to go to college for music. He wants to be in a band. It's his dream (which is ironic because I want the same thing).

He's a total sop when it comes to the person he loves (aka me) but he'll pretend he isn't.

Another thing I've noticed is that's he an arrogant fool, but in the good way. His cocky attitude just compliments him, and makes me like him more. He's sarcastic, and charming.

I like him. Quite a lot.

I didn't tell Oliver that Vic had come to visit me. For some reason, I felt like it might bother him. It's not like I have to tell him anyway. It's not important.

I didn't talk to him about what I remembered either. It's not like I didn't want to, I just never got the chance to bring it up. I'll ask him about it the next time I see him, which should be soon.

"Kellin?" Dr Williams voice snaps me out of my thoughts.

She pulls a chair in the corner over to my bed, and sits in it, crossing her legs.

"Huh?"

"I said that we can talk more, if you'd like?"

I nod. "Okay. About what? My memory?"

"Yes, actually. We think you've lost your memory due to the coma. You took a lot of pills, and you should be dead. It's a bit of a miracle that you survived. However we are certain that your memory will come back to you."

"But how long will it take for me to get it back?"

"It shouldn't be more than a few weeks. The pills you took had a huge effect on your body, but everything should resort back to normal."

I breathe a sigh of relief. "Thank God. I don't remember anything, but I really want it to all go back to normal. Losing your memory is very frustrating."

She laughs. "I'm sure it is. But you're lucky you have so many people here for you."

"Yeah," I agree, thinking of my family and friends. "I am pretty lucky."

"Okay, do you have anymore questions?"

"Wait." I say. "I actually did remember something. It wasn't anything big, it was just a conversation Oliver and I had."

She smiles. "That's good news. Your memory is coming back faster than we expected. Tell me if you remember anything else, alright?"

I nod in agreement.

"Any other questions?"

I think for a second. "When can I get out of here?"

"Well, now that you're awake we'd like to keep you here for a few days for evaluation."
