Life's a bitch, and Then you Get Shot
Mai's eyes opened slowly to the lit up room, littered with devices
that looked like they were meant to hurt, not help. She remembered next
to nothing of any of the events that lead up to her being here. The door
was kept open and people rushed through the hallways, blank, or screaming
and crying. These doctors and nurses were tired and worn. As Mai saw it,t
hey only did this to get paid, and just hoped all of it would be over,
she saw them as blank; she also saw the screaming family members and patients
as blank too. Did they really care that much other about what just happened
to their friends, family, themselves? Or was it all just exaggerated. That's
why when Mai was shot, she didn't scream, or cry, that's why she wasn't
making a scene now. It just wasn't that much of a big deal.
All of this rushed through her head in just a few seconds after
waking up, then the pain hit her. The pain from the deep, wound located
a little above her right breast. Bandages covered anything that would look
gruesome to anybody... but that's all it did for her. It didn't take away
pain, especially emotional pain. She remembered few memories from the incident.
She remembered the fact that she was shot, and why they were there, and
the other gang, but nothing more.
Just as she started to drift off to sleep, voices started to
come from just outside the door, just nurses and doctors she thought, but
then she heard the voice from one of the police who had found her the other
night. It was an odd voice for a man she thought, light and bouncy, But
just then the voice triggered a sudden thought from the night before, two
police officers hovered over her, one a fairly old man, with a few traces
of gray hair in his, and a tall thin woman, with long shiny black hair
that dropped to a little past her breasts. All of a sudden the memory rushed
from her thoughts and stunned Mai for a moment. Then she started to shake
and whimper, and a few tears streamed down her face.
Outside the room there were two police officers and a
detective, talking to A doctor and nurse who were watching, and taking
care of Mai.
"Doctor, I don't know if she'll be awake yet, she's been sleeping
for three weeks."
"She's a very strong and sturdy girl, I think she should be
awake soon, if not, any minute now."
"We really need to see this patient as soon as possible."
"Well, if you'd like to wait for her a little while, I'm sure
she'll be awake and ready to answer any questions you have by the end of
today!"
"Well, thank you, we'll wait as long as we have to."
As they walked into the room they saw Mai, shaking, crying
and murmuring. The female officer walked up to Mai, and covered her up
with the blanket, to try and warm her up. As she pulled the cover up to
Mai's neck she whispered in her ear,
"I think it's a bit too chilly in here too." She spoke with
a warm inviting, and almost hypnotic tone, that sent shivers down Mai's
spine, it was girls like this she simply didn't like.
"Well good she's awake." the doctor announced in a song like
tone that made it sound like Mai's health meant as much as an ant did to
him. Mai simply did not want to be there, she wanted to run far away, from
them, from last night, from her boyfriend, from absolutely everything from
her past. She had never felt so weak in her life, and this time she couldn't
just push it away, she finally had to face it, she had finally hit the
dead end she had seen coming for miles and miles.
So, I've been gone for a long time, but I've had school, and baby sitting,
