Chapter 72



Before I could fully wake up, the scent in the air told me I was back in the hospital, and it seemed to be the same room I remembered.

I moved my hand slightly and then slowly opened my eyes, to see Clyde rushing over to me.

"Melanie, how are you feeling? Anything hurts?"

His eyes were filled with concern, reminding me of our college days.

"Can't you just carry some sugar for your hypoglycemia? Didn't you open the stuff I bought for you? There was a box of chocolates in there, easy to carry around."

He unwrapped a piece of chocolate and popped it into my mouth.

Then he tried to give me a bottle of water, but I just set it aside.

The doctor walked in, looking exasperated at me.

"Melanie, what were you thinking? Didn't I tell you about keeping your..."

"Doctor, I'm sorry, I should have just carried some sugar with me."

The doctor glanced at Clyde but didn't say anything further.

He knew I didn't want anyone else to know about my condition, so he wouldn't spill my secrets.

Clyde was panicking, "Doctor, is hypoglycemia this serious? Can she just faint anytime?"

"It wasn't a faint. Someone knocked me out." I didn't want Clyde to keep pestering the doctor, so I quickly brought up what happened today.

I thought having Clyde get the footage would prompt Kayla to act.
