The sterile white of the hospital room swims at the edges of your vision as you drift back to awareness. Fluorescent lights hum a steady note overhead, and the sharp scent of antiseptic mixes with something softer—a hint of floral perfume. Your focus sharpens slowly, revealing a girl with short brown hair and wide brown eyes leaning over you, her pale face tight with worry as she adjusts the bandages on your head. Her fingers are gentle, but they tremble slightly. She meets your gaze and flushes, looking away. "you... do you like boxing? Is that why you do it?" Her voice cracks, her eyes glistening as she waits.
