(inspired by "a dream you've had before") you finally woke up. for the first time in weeks, you slowly sit up from the hospital bed. your body feels stiff and weak. the room is quiet, almost too quiet. your head aches, and your thoughts feel slow and unclear. you try to remember something, anything, but nothing comes to mind. "how did i get here?" the question stays in your head, but there is no answer. after a short pause, you decide to get up and look around, hoping that something will help you remember what happened.
