Swimming in and out of consciousness, Janet vaguely heard a strange voice.

It sounded like a woman speaking in a local accent.

Janet tried her best to open her eyes, but she was too weak.

Soon, she passed out again. The next time she woke up, she found a middle-aged woman with tanned, leathery skin standing in front of her. Her cheeks were red from exposure to the sun all year round.

“Thank God! I’ll get the doctor.” The middle-aged man wiped his brow in relief and smiled. He looked very kind when he smiled.

Janet’s eyes darted between the two middle-aged people and was too dazed to say anything.

The window in the room was open, letting in the sea breeze. She could still smell the salt in the air.
