"Gaara"
"Gaara!"
I woke up, the fluorescent lights burning my eyes, I lay back and let my eyes adjust. I feel sick. I have an I.V. As I take in my surroundings I remember. There, next to my bed, is my older brother, Kankuro. He gives me a look, not quite sure what emotion he's trying to display, but it's not good. He runs his hand through his thick, brown hair. He drops his hand and gives me a sigh. "Now look what you've gone and done." Looking more defeated than angry, he continues. "You know what's gonna happen, right?" Looking back on what I've done, it wasn't the brightest thing to do.
In the corner I spot my older sister, Temari, my mind was so clouded she didn't even cross my mind. She's sobbing, but chokes it down for moment and looks at Kankuro, ten back at me. "Why would you do it? How could you not tell us that this is how you felt? We could have helped you! I know we could've!" I scoffed at the thought that she could possibly imagine saving someone beyond help such as myself. It proves she doesn't know the full extent of what's been going on for what seems like ages now.
I give a sigh of defeat, I ask exactly what they think happened. "You tried to fucking off yourself!" I give a glare at Kankuro and I ask "Why?" My brother starts a whole spout how I was too weak or I was depressed or something. I laughed, they honest to god think I'm depressed. I can feel myself losing touch again. I see a shadow, was it a shadow? I can't tell but the shadow is coming closer, it's whispering, whispering? What is it saying? I can still hear Kankuro in the background, he's muffled. I focus a bit harder on the whisper. Shit, this can't happen now. This can't fucking happen now. The whispers have turned into a voice, sounds like it's from the left ear. The sounds of the hospital, my brother, my sobbing sister, and now him.
