âShe inhaled a lot of smoke, leading to tracheal constriction.
Sheâs stable now but needs to be observed for concussion symptoms over the next two days.

Relieved, Miley thanked the doctor.
âI understand.
Thank you.
â
After the doctor left, Miley turned to Stella, tears forming in her eyes.
âI was terrified, Stella.
I canât let you go anywhere alone again.
I have to be with you.
â
âIâm alright,â Stella reassured in a raspy voice.
âDonât worryâ
âLook at you.
I almost thought I would never see you again.
â Miley extended her hand to Stella, but she promptly withdrew it as soon as it neared, apprehensive of inadvertently touching Stellaâs injury.
She gently held Stellaâs hand and said softly, âListen to the doctor.
Take proper rest, and Iâll fetch anything you need.
â
âWaterâ¦â Stella said with difficulty.
Miley stood up.
âIâll get it for you right away.

Quickly, Miley fetched her a glass of water and helped her drink.
Setting the glass aside, she inquired, âNeed anything else?â
Stella shook her head.
âHow did I end up in the hospital?â
The last thing she remembered was someone saving her, but now only Miley was here.
âMatthew rescued you,â Miley divulged.
âWhat?â Stella looked stunned.
âHow did he know where I was? What about Maverick?â
She was supposed to meet Maverick.
Had she not arrived, he would have been the one to find her.
