A man lies on the bed.
According to the residents on the island, this guy was caught in the net with her in the sea.
That's what she guessed, and she thought it was very likely.
Because when she woke up, her wrist was tightly gripped by him, and it took her a great deal of effort to pull her wrist out of his palm.
When she woke up, he hadn't yet regained consciousness.
She didn't know if he would ever wake up.
She sat by the bedside for a while, wiped the cold sweat off her cheeks, then reached for the bowl of mashed potatoes and, using a spoon made of wood, pried open his chapped lips and fed him the mush little by little.
A comatose person wouldn't chew, relying only on gravity to let the food slowly flow into their esophagus, so it took her about an hour or two to finish one meal.
