Chapter 6 - Hospital Blues I woke up and peered around the room. It was all white, with an old, floral decor along the top of the walls. "Where am I ?", I managed to let escape from my lips. I spotted Christian sitting on a chair, opening his eyes. I smiled but that smile soon faded when I saw HER. He noticed my facial expression, followed my gaze and gritted his teeth uncomfortably. Christian walked over to my bedside, unsure of what to say. "Uhm.. I'm glad you're feeling better Ana", stuttered Christian. "Why is she here?! We always joked around about how she was obsessed with you! Why is she here?!", I whispered demandingly. Chris took a deep breath and looked down. "Angelica's here...because...she's my girlfriend." I looked at him with no expression then closed my eyes so he wouldn't see the tears trying to escape. "We've been dating for a week now". Said Christian. "And you never even told me?! What about Katherine?! What about..", I looked at my hands fidgeting with my blanket. "I'm sorry babes," pleaded Christian, "Katherine and I broke up. You were in a coma for about 3 weeks." I stayed silent and turned over, presenting him with my back. I checked my phone and read a few text messages I missed. Then I read Manny's which said: **Hey. Uhm, I hope you're okay. I left town just in case they wanna put me in jail, cuz I ain't going there... And I'm breaking up with you. This is too much to handle. Well, bye Ann.* I stared at that text and took a deep breath. What else can go wrong?
Chapter 7 - A Deadly Silence I had fallen asleep a few minutes after I turned my back on Christian. I groggily opened my eyes and yawned, and spotted the doctor stepping quietly into my room. The doctor came in and told me I was able to go home. "I called your mother to come pick you up, Ms. Summers", informed the doctor. "Thank you", I smiled politely. My mother picked me up and took me straight home, attempting to cheer me up the whole ride. "It'll all be over after you get plenty of rest", stated Mom with a smile. "Hope you're right", I mumbled, smoothing my hand over the bandage on my head. The next day at school felt like it would never end.. As I was walking to my locker, I noticed a couple a few feet away making out. Yuck. Why do people feel the need to display their tongue wrestling in public? I smiled when I remembered how Christian and I would always laugh and make fun of those types of people. I retrieved my books out of my locker, then proceeded down the hall to my homeroom. As I neared that same couple I spotted earlier, my smile faded. That couple was Christian and Angelica. I saw Angelica opened her eyes, saw me and had the nerve to smirk. I continued on down the hall, acting as if I didn't see her. Turning the corner, I headed into the girls' washroom and rushed into the nearest cubicle. That, is where I spent the rest of homeroom and Spanish class.
There should be an update either Monday or Tuesday because I'm busy with work and homework this weekend.
