Italics mean flashback
I never thought I'd be back here. In Neptune, California, also known as my own version of hell. But yet, here I am, walking through those stupid sliding glass doors and into the waiting room. The last time I was here was, well, an odd experience. The memory is so clear it seems like it happened yesterday, but in all reality, it happened years ago during my senior year of high school.
I walked into the hospital room I have only been in once, maybe twice before. Meg is lying motionless on the stiff bed, for she is still in a coma. I shut the door quietly behind me, like you would if you were trying not to wake the occupant of the room. Even though I know she won't wake up due to the fact I slammed her door closed.
I slow walk over and sit down on the chair next to the bedside, and prepare myself for the task at hand. I'm here to say my last goodbye to poor Meg. Even though our friendship ended badly and in a big mess of misunderstanding, I still want to pay my respects. As I'm trying to gather up my courage to start speaking, I see her arms and legs start to move under the plain grey blanket.
I stand up quickly so I'm hovering over her, and just watch. Praying that this horrible nightmare is over, and Meg will wake up and all will be fine again. Then, like a cheesy old horror movie, her eyes snap open and her hand grips onto my arm tightly. But she didn't get all zombie-like, which usually happens in those cheesy horror movies.
Instead, something happens that would only occur in Neptune. Her eyes take on a deadly appearance and opens her mouth. The one word that is whispered through her lips like she is going to get revenge is: Veronica.
As quickly as her eyes opened, they shut and Meg fell limply back onto the pillow. The steady beeping is replaced with a loud, constant, high pitched noise splitting through the air like a siren. I just stood there, studying Meg's features in silence as the doctors came running into the room.
They were trying desperately to revive her, bring her back to life, but they never succeeded.
And now, here I am. Back in good ole Neptune, standing in front of an all to familiar wooden door. Now yes, I know Meg wasn't going to be on the other side, lying in her bed motionless, but something like that just doesn't leave a person's mind. So, I put on my 'I'm fine, really' face, for I never told anyone about that incident, and opened the door slowly. I shut the door quietly behind me, but this time I was actually being careful not to wake the other occupant in the hospital room. My father.
The End
