The infirmary. Ava had missed it. As she slowly blinked the sleep out of her eyes, she heard the beeping of the machines and realised she was hooked up to some IVS.

The curtains were drawn around her bed, so she knew she wasn’t in a private room this time. She could hear faint moaning from one side of her. It made her wonder what had happened to that poor student for them to be in that much pain because all the students healed quickly, and the Infirmary had their fancy potions to help them

She gingerly lifted herself onto her elbows and looked around, trying to judge the time. The dim lights were an, so it was nighttime, but whether it was still the same day was up for debate. She hoped so. This would be a brilliant time to be unconscious for days so she wouldn’t have to participate in the rest of the evaluation

There was a slight commotion somewhere in the ward, and a female voice saying, “We told you to come back during visiting hours. There are too many patients tonight, you can’t disrupt….

And then somebody pulled her curtain open. She wasn’t surprised to see Zeke standing there as a nurse followed behind him. The moment their gazes met, she could see the relief on his face, and she had to admit that a part of her felt more settled when she saw him.

“Just discharge her. You know you need the beds,” Zeke growled at the nurse still whispering behind him.

“The doctors will do the rounds-”

“Whether you discharge her or not, she’s going home now,” he told the nurse as he came forward. He inspected her from head to toe and looked at the machines as if he knew what he was doing. Maybe he did.

“How are you feeling?” he asked.

“Great”
