Chapter 2
I woke up. I couldn't remember anything. Then it hit me. Mom dieing. My loosing conciseness. Everything replaying in my mind. Hitting right in the heart, as if a dagger pierced my soul. Where was I? I tried to sit up, but something was holding me back. I looked around. A nurse came in. She checked what I thought to be my charts.
"I see your awake Miss Sage." The woman said with a crimson smile.
"Why does my head hurt?" I asked.
"Well the reason you're in the hospital is because you cut your wrist."She said, her smile disappearing.
"Why was it so serious?"I asked. She laughed a little bit.
"Well lets just say that if we didn't come in time, you would have died." She looked at me intensely. It made me shiver.
"Where's my grandma? I want to see her." I said.
"Well, Ummmmm... that's the thing. Because you lost so much blood, you were in a coma for three-years. Your grandma died last week sitting next to your bed holding your hand. Waiting for you to wake up." She said, with sympathy in her voice. I started crying, not grandma too.
"I regret to tell you that you will have to go back to your home country." She said. I could tell she was sorry for me. First my mom, then my grandma, and now I have to leave my friends and city I know. Why was this happening to me?
"Where did I come from?" I asked the lady.
"You don't know where your from."She said, shocked.
"No." I replied.
"Well, originally you are from Japan." I was from Japan?! Mom always said I've lived in America my whole life. Why would she lie to me?
"That has to be a mistake. My mom told me I was born in America." I said.
"Well we have to send you to an orphanage there."She said. I was shocked.
"How am I going to get there? I'm afraid of flying." I said, and honestly I was.
"Sorry, but your grandma told us to send you there. she figured it was the best place to keep you safe. Oh, and by the way, my name is Lena." She said. I didn't want to know the name of the person takeing my life away from me. I wanted to go home. Not to Japan, but my real home.
