"sorry, could you tell me what happened?

"Im still a little confused, if its possible, I'd like to talk to the docter that treated me." I asked as politely as I could manage, but I worried that the urgent curiosity in my voice may have sounded agressive. She didnt look as if she cared one way or the other, but I still cursed myself for the assumed awkwardness. she just nodded her head and smiled politely.

"I have to come tell her that you've woken up anyway. she'll be in in about 20 minutes" Esther picked up a few piles of paper on a counter beside the door and quickly walked out. She was hard to read, I couldnt quite tell whether she was annoyed, happy, or just plain bored. Im well aware that nursing isnt an easy job by any means, so maybe its just been a long day? regardless, the doctor would be in soon and I needed to move on. Esther said the Doc would be in in 5 minutes, which naturally means I have roughly 20 minutes to kill.

I laid in the hospital bed and watched the ceiling with a sigh, eventually my eyes wandered the room "maybe my stuff is in a bag somewhere around here". sure enough there was a small drawstring bag on the counter by the door.

I had a hunch my clothes would be in there, but it was too far, I would have to stand up to get it, but if I did, Esther would surely get upset with me again... I shake my head, I guess my problem is a little more deep rooted than I thought.
