Aveline felt herself drifting as if she were floating weightlessly in midair. Her body seemed impossibly light, and she was filled with a sense of confusion. What was happening to her?

"Aveline? Aveline?"

A distant voice called out, familiar but too far away for her to recognize.

"Aveline, wake up!"

The voice came again, closer this time.

The confusion on Aveline's face slowly faded as she began to recognize the voice-it was Lucas!

"No, don't come near me!"

Aveline clutched her head tightly, rejecting his approach, refusing to hear his voice. Memories flooded her mind in a chaotic rush, overwhelming her until she burst into tears.

"Ave!"

Suddenly, Selena's voice pierced through the confusion, and Aveline's eyes flew open. Her face was damp with sweat and tears, and the pain in her body started to come alive. "Ave, you're finally awake! You scared me to death!" Selena sobbed, tears streaming down her face as she saw Aveline regain consciousness.

Aveline blinked, trying to move her neck, and then she realized she was wearing something around it.

"Don't move! You were in a car accident, and you've got fractures all over your body. Does it hurt a lot?" Selena quickly said when she saw Aveline trying to sit up.
