ISOBEL The antiseptic smell was making me nauseous. I had spent so much time in this hospital bed, and I couldn’t stand it anymore. My body felt stronger now, and I knew I was strong enough to move around. Mason would probably disagree with me, but he wasn’t here right now, and I wasn’t going to wait for his permission because I didn’t need it. I could do my things on my own. I carefully swung my legs over the bed and I slowly stood up to test my balance and strength to see if I was strong enough. I felt a slight ache in my muscles, but it was nothing that I couldn’t manage. I took a deep breath, grabbed the blanket and folded it over the bed before I carefully and slowly walked to the door. I walked into the hallway, and I sighed in relief as I was finally out of that suffocating room
