Fractured: A Short Story

Improved Essays
Fractured “What happened? Where am I? Who am I?” I wake up in a hospital bed. The very first thing I did was… fall down from the bed. “I’m fine. Huh, there isn’t a soul here. Ahh, good thing there’s nobody here to know that but me.” I got up and tried to find something about me in the room.

Something isn’t right. It feels like something or someone is watching me, but I was desperate for those nachos! “Just gonna take these, okay.” After those wonderful nachos, I had the sensation that someone was watching me, very, very closely.
