Alice's eyes blinked open as the shiny white light assaulted her eyes.
Am I dead? she thought to herself.
Is this finally the afterlife? she thought to herself as her eyes blinked rapidly to adjust to her surroundings.
A murmur of voices at her side confirmed she was indeed not dead.
"Alice, you're awake," Travis said, his voice filled with relief.
"How are you feeling? Do I need to call the doctor? Do your arms hurt?" he asked rapidly, looking around her body for potential injuries that might have been overlooked.
"I'm fine. Where am I?"
"You're in the hospital room. You fainted immediately after Grant let you go."
Alice's stomach dropped at the mention of Grant.
"Where is he? What happened after? Is anyone hurt?" Alice asked anxiously.
"Everyone is fine, maybe except him. He was shot."
"Oh."
