Sooraya didn't wake up for some hours after the surgery. She was confused, at first, when she did regain consciousness sometime in the middle of the night.
Kevin Ford's presence slumped in a chair, dozing, and then Guppy, helped her
place where she was. Milliways. She thought she'd seen the door during the fight, but...those last few minutes had been more than a little chaotic.
Well, if she'd needed medical attention, she could safely assume she wasn't
dead. The thought made her smile briefly. Still something left for her, though
what was ahead wasn't going to be easy.
Kevin woke, too, as she stirred. He glanced down at her, not saying anything,
but took her hand carefully in his for a second. He still wore gloves, she noted, and made a mental note to ask when he was in from. But later.

Guppy stayed overnight, and while she didn't complain, she'd been relieved to have him there. Both of them, really.
Tired, though! It was difficult to stay awake for more than a few minutes at a time, if there wasn't someone talking.
