“Good, you’re awake.”
Kel blinked and looked at the woman sitting at the side of her bed. She frowned, trying to remember.
“You’re at my townhouse. I brought you back here after I told you the date and you panicked. It’s odd, I’ve had three different healers take a look at you, and they all swore that there was nothing wrong with you other than a bit of tiredness.”
Kel tried to reply but only managed to croak, and the lady handed her a pitcher of water. She gulped down several large mouthfuls and tried again. “I think the Goddess sent me here from the future. All I wanted was a little break.” A laugh bubbled up in her throat that threatened to become hysterical, and she clamped her jaw shut as she fought to stay calm.
“You know, there’s something about you that makes me believe you.” She eyed Kel, and then smiled. “Don’t try to stay awake, I put a calming potion in that water. The healers all said you need rest.”
“But I can’t, I-“
“Don’t worry, everything will be fine.” A callused palm pushed her hair off her face as her eyelids grew heavier, and the last thing Kel felt before drifting into sleep was the gentle press of reassuring lips to her forehead.
