Raiden’s index finger twitched slightly. The ICU monitor responded instantly, beeping loudly and irregularly to signal the change in his condition.
The sound caught the attention of the nurse and doctor on duty, who immediately rushed to his bedside to assess the situation.
"Raiden, can you hear my voice?" the doctor asked gently while checking his vitals.
A faint nod from Raiden provided the answer.
With a ventilator still attached to his mouth, Raiden struggled to speak, his attempts reduced to incoherent mumbles as he forced his eyes open slightly.
"Don’t move too much, sir," the doctor cautioned, his tone firm yet calm. "You’ve just regained consciousness after a week in a coma."
The weight of the doctor’s words sank in as Raiden slowly closed his eyes again.
I’ve been in a coma
