Chapter 11: Hospital
"You can come in now," said Dr. Walsh. "Ellie's feeling better."
Ellie's parents came in.
"Ellie, how are you doing?" Ellie's mom asked.
"I'm doing better, but my stomach still hurts."
"We are going to get Rick for this!" Ellie's dad screamed.
"Dad, calm down. Do you want him to come after us? Better yet, me?" Ellie
asked.
"I know that Ellie, but Rick is dangerous and we can't let him do this to
other girls."
"But it wasn't entirely his fault. I am responsible too," said Ellie.
"What did YOU do? Did you beat him first?" Ellie's mom said.
"Honey, you can exaggerate a lot sometimes!" said Ellie's dad.
"No. My friends were warning me that he is dangerous and abuses girls, but
I thought they were wrong. The first time he hit me, I was mad at him but
then he apologized and I thought that it was no big deal. The second time,
I just gave up on him. He started to beat me. He kicked me in the stomach
and also punched me and said he would continue and would never stop."
"Ellie, why were you stupid enough to not listen to your friends?" Ellie's
mom asked.
"Mom I just thought he wasn't that bad."
"Just let her rest through this," said Ellie's dad.
"No I won't! Ellie, you have to stop being so stubborn! You're so stubborn!
You never listen to what people say and you're selfish and people are
always there for you!" Ellie's mom screamed.
"I told you not to be so hard on her!" Ellie's dad screamed back.
"Mom, you're talking about me being selfish and stubborn? You have nothing
to say? Every time dad goes on a peace-makers mission, you get drunk and
you never take care of me. I take care of you. I clean the dishes, I bring
you dinner, and I even put you to bed at night! I am the one that is there
for you, but you know what? I'm sick of it! I'm sick of being the mom
around here. That's your job!" Ellie screamed. "I made one mistake. One
mistake. You go crazy. But you've done much worse."
"Is this true Barbara?" Ellie's dad asked.
"I'm sorry Richard, but life is so stressful! Why do you always have to
leave? Can't you stay here with your family? We need you! I need you."
"Look, I know I'm always on a mission, but I still care about both of you.
You're the most important women in my life."
"Then show it, Dad. Show it," said Ellie.
"I will. I promise."
The three of them hugged. Then Dr. Walsh came back.
"I'm sorry to interrupt, but Ellie's friends want to come."
"We'll leave you to talk to your friends," said Ellie's dad.
Ellie's parents left. Then Ashley, Terri and Marco came in.
"We're glad to see you're okay," said Ashley.
"Yeah, we were so worried!" said Terri. "I thought you were paralyzed."
"But you're okay," said Marco.
"I'm so amazed that you even came, even after how stupid I was acting."
"Yeah, you were stupid, but it was just love. Mixed Love!" said Ashley.
"You still have your sense of humor," said Ellie. "I missed you guys. Rick
was just mean and controlling. He even tried to get me to stay away from
you guys."
"Why wouldn't you want to hang out with us?" Terri asked.
"Ha, funny. Terri, I owe you an apology. I said some mean things to you and
you were right about Rick. Sorry, but at least you've got a boyfriend. I'm
just single again."
"It's okay, Ellie. You will find a soul mate someday just don't rush into
it," said Terri.
"Thanks, Terri. Marco, I also owe you an apology. You are not selfish or
immature and you're not a jerk. I was just mean and out of line. I don't
know what came over me," said Ellie.
"It was Rick," said Marco. "But I forgive you; you'll always be my best
friend."
"It was definitely Rick, who else?" said Ellie.
"I'm glad you're okay Ellie. There is only one word to describe Rick.
Disturbed." said Ashley.
"Mental." said Terri.
"Psycho." said Ellie.
"Crazy." said Marco.
"We officially have four words to describe Marco," said Ashley. "He is a
crazily, mentally disturbed psycho."
Everyone looked at Ashley.
"I know, I know. It made no sense," said Ashley.
Ellie's parents and Dr. Walsh walked in.
"I can see you're having a good time," said Dr. Walsh. "But are you ready
to go home?"
"If it's too much you can stay here another night," said Ellie's mom.
"Yes, it is your decision." said Ellie's dad.
"I want to go home," said Ellie. "I'm feeling much better."
So everyone said bye to Ellie and left. Her parents took her home. The
three of them decided to have a meeting with Rick and his parents with Ms.
Suave on Monday. They called the school and everything was arranged.
Note: I know that last paragraph made no sense, but I'm tired and I just
wanted to finish this chapter already. I mean, how is it possible that they
arranged at meeting at school late at night? But who cares, this meeting is
the last chapter. I know I'm going to miss this story, but I have to end it
now. Please review if you want me to update!
