Many people gathered on the bridge, and more people were arriving. A first-aid
team arrived as well.
The moment she emerged from the water, someone saw her.
“Look!
Someone's there!”
Debbie was too tired, and when her fingers slipped from the concrete and she
sank into the water again, she heard several people jump into the river.
Her chest burned like fire. She had no strength left at all; she closed her eyes
and stopped struggling.
“Carlos, I'm sorry..." Then she lost consciousness.
Debbie was awakened by the cold. She blinked, but the light was so blinding that
she closed her eyes to stop the headache she felt coming on.
She heard people talking in her ear. Opening her eyes slowly again, she saw the
blue sky.
“Am I still alive?’ she thought.
“She's awake!” said a strange voice.
“Is the ambulance here? She woke up!”
“Girl, are you all right?”
Debbie nodded by instinct. But she felt very cold, both physically and mentally.
She was shivering, and for some reason, she was getting hot flashes. She wasn't
sure why.
Someone helped her to her feet. She then noticed that she was wearing a man’s
coat. It was part of a uniform and had patches on it as well as a name badge. It
must belong to someone on the first-aid team.
Underneath, she was still wearing her wet knit shirt.
She heard the ambulance approaching, and some men gathered around her
when it arrived. She was bidden to Lie down on a stretcher and was carried into
the ambulance by several men.
In the hospital
Sitting on a bench in the corridor, Debbie looked up and down the intake hall.
The wards were fully occupied, and even the hall itself was overflowing with
patients. A nurse bound her head, and then set her up with an IV. The IV rack
had wheels, so she could walk with it if she had to.

Debbie was still not entirely with it,
and didn't hear the nurse at first. Not
until the nurse called her several
times did she come back to her
senses. The content is on

“Pay the bill now, or you can't have
another bottle of IV fluid,” the nurse
said impatiently. She was practically
yelling, like Debbie was deaf or
something. Debbie opened her
mouth, but before she could respond,
a familiar voice met her ears. The

“I'LL pay. How much is it?” She raised her head to see Hayden.
“We have to stop meeting Like this, * she thought.
Behind him was Portia, staring at her with burning eyes.
