Can You Hear Me?
My coma story! I invented this idea like 2 months ago and started writing it in a 40 cent notebook that my aunt got for me from Wal-Mart. Best Present Ever!
Phineas had been playing basketball in his driveway when his mom told him the news. His friend, Isabella, had been hit by a truck. She had been riding her bike, lost control, and drove out to the middle of the road where she was then hit. Isabella was in the hospital suffering from a broken leg, arm, several ribs and was submerged in a coma.
Phineas looked over at his abandoned basketball siting in the grass. He had been doing something so normal while Isabella was struggling to stay alive. He grabbed the ball, threw it in the garage, and ran to his room. He flopped on his bed and stared at the bumpy ceiling. How could have this of happened? He asked himself. His vision became foggy and his eyes filled with tears. Phineas drove his head into a pillow letting it soak in his tears. Hang on Isabella, he thought, Please hold on. He closed his tired, water-logged eyes and fell into a deep sleep.

Ferb walked into his room, confused to see his brother in an awkward sleeping position on his bed. Phineas never sleeps with his head pointing down on the pillow, it hurts his nose. He shook him, he tried to rouse his sleeping brother. It was the middle of the day, why was he sleeping? He shook him again, except hard this time. Phineas groaned, "Oh, hi Ferb." What was with the monotone escaping his brother's mouth?
He raised an eyebrow. Phineas caught on, "Oh, you want to know why I'm upset. Well, Isabella… Isabella is… Isabella is in…" He was trying to find the right words. "Isabella is in the… hospital." He said it quickly as if forcing out the last word. "She is in critical care, she was hit by a truck. She is in a coma." He stated them like facts. Ferb took a minute to digest what he had heard. Then he took his brother's shoulder and led him downstairs.
Down they went, until they came to the kitchen. He looked his mother in the eye then gestured to Phineas who was red and puffy from crying. "When can we see her?" he asked.
Linda saw the hurt in Phineas' eyes and decided. "As soon as you want." She said with a soft voice.
