Healed
(Mac's Point Of View)
I should have died after the bus hit me. But somehow, I felt my heart still beating. Am I really dead or not? The strange scent of latex filled my nose. My eyes slowly blinked opened. And my vision became blurry to crystal clear.
I looked around only to find myself lying on a hospital bed. I was shocked that I was in a hospital room. That explains why I could smell latex.
Just then, the door slowly creaked open and a black haired woman in a white uniform arrived and said, "Mac, you're awake."
"Yes I am," I replied. "Why am I not dead yet?" "You fell into a coma for five months. I was called by some passers-by that you jumped in front of a bus to kill yourself. I managed to get you in time to the hospital," informed the nurse. "And I'm Nurse Mary by the way."
"Five months?" I said in disdain. I rather die or have permanent brain damage instead of being in a coma for two months.
"Well you were one of those people who survived a five months coma," said Nurse Mary. "Yeah, lucky me," I said sarcastically.
She then asked, "Why did you jump in front of the bus?" I sighed and said, "I don't want to talk about it." "It's okay. You can tell me," she said. "Alright. My so called friends told me die just because I am growing up."
Nurse Mary gasped and said, "Well, if they were not your true friends, just ignore them. Don't befriend or talk to them ever again. Then they will be sorry."
I smiled. Then, she said, "I think you may need to have some rest. You may leave the hospital tomorrow." She then left me alone. I went back to sleep.
The next morning, Nurse Mary entered my room and said, "Mac. You're free to go now." She then lifted me onto the wheelchair and wheeled me through the lobby and we went down the lift. After going down several floors, we made it to the ground floor.
There, she said, "You can go home now." I thanked her before getting myself up. Then, I waved goodbye, left the hospital and walked home. Never again, I am visiting my so called friends, Coco, Bloo, Eduardo and Wilt or talking to them. I clenched my fist tightly and said, "I will get you for this."
Then I went inside the apartment.
The End.
