Chapter 28: At the hospital

"The next food ration is at twelve o'clock," he said. He placed the tray on the bedside table. "Do you need anything else?" he added.

I shook my head and sighed. The wounds I got that night were painful even after I took painkillers. The nurse approached the bed and put a pillow on the headboard for me to lean on.

I closed my eyes and asked. "Have you contacted my parents?"

"Not yet. But the department is trying to retrieve your cellphone data." He glanced at me for a moment. "You really don't memorize your parents' numbers?"

I shook my head. But I stopped when I remembered something. "That friend of mine. I memorized his number."

"Good." He picked up the pen and paper hanging at the foot of the bed. "Write the contact number and we'll tell your friend you're here."

"Okay thank you."

I accepted the paper and pen and wrote down Tiden's number. His number is the only thing I memorized on my contact list. Suddenly, I stopped writing for a moment. I missed Tiden who was so overprotective.
