I gulped, dumbfounded. 3 months? It sounded completely ridiculous. I couldn't have been unconscious for that long. I touched my head, worried. It was wound in bandages and I spotted the same firm packaging on my arm, shoulder and waist. No legs. It sunk in as I realised I would never walk again.81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusSwlreipQ
"I want to see myself." I whispered to Claire who had been quietly waiting by my bed. From behind her, Arya's mum tugged out a black wheelchair. It looked actually cool. There was glinting stars on it like a night sky. A cup holder and phone holder was placed either side of a steering wheel. I lurched forward, my stomach churning. It was achingly difficult to move. I hauled myself like a worm across the bed and slid uncomfortably onto the chair. My whole body, well, half sunk like it was nobody's business. Two lovely dips cushioned and surrounded my lumps where my legs should have been. 81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibWMcYH8Co
"What are the lumpy things on my legs, anyway?"81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqTLSlcyCy
"They're your thighs, sweetheart." chuckled Claire and I went the same shade as a strawberry.81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3xtzXs57wX
"Sorry."81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N7NSGSLP2
"You don't need to apologise. I have plenty more patients like this."81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ok3kk8cgg
"Why?"81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPw1AlN5dA2
"Ah, there has been some fighting about who goes and finds the school."81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbX47ARfSc
"But you said that is was ashes."81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaFZdJS3oB
"It was a fake."81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhvZGUmthIx
"Ah." I swallowed again and settled into the wheelchair. I flicked on the switch and moved over to the mirror. I was wearing a nightgown with blueberries on it. I slowly unwound the bandages. Huge red marks scored across my shoulder, wrist and and waist. My long, ginger curls floated down and reached my ears. I was surprised as I furled my hands round my ear.81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2OpEUksAg
"I look like a boy."81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrsJX0BPDh
"You need a disguise, everyone thinks you're dead."81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNTennjdRD

"Your name is Harlow White. You are 16 years old, tall for your age. I'm your aunt and you travelled here to comfort me about Arya. I have a voice chip to make your voice lower. Here is the rest of Harlow's info."announced Claire, dropping two heavy, fat files into my hands. I sighed.81Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7O6xM3C5IF
