UPON WAKING UP, TODD was greeted with nothing but pain and a brightly lit room. It was something he was far too familiar with, but with his father absent from his side, instead his mother sat at his bedside. She sat closely enough that one hand was clasped within his own while the other hand onto a book─ a copy of Frankenstein that Todd knew was his own rather than hers considering up until the summer of the year before, Delia only delved into typical romance novels.
Squeezing her hand gently, it prompted Delia to look up from her book and meet his gaze. "Oh my god. . ."
"Sorry. . ." He said, trying his best to sit up when she let go of his hand to place the book on the table next to his bed. Todd regretted doing so, pain continuing to course through his body but somehow even worse, bending over himself, he struggled to breath, prompting Delia to gently push him back onto the pillows, raising the bed in the process.
