That Summer- [13]
I woke up to find myself in a hospital bed. Surrounded by my
mother, Richard and my father. I didn’t know who to look
at, or what to even say. My mouth was dry, my eyes crusty.
“She’s waking up...” I heard my mother
whisper.
My dad stroked my hair back from my face. No one said a word, the
silence deafened me. The doctor walked in and picked up the
clipboard from the front of my bed.
“How are we feeling Ms. Megan?” he asked.
I built up the strength to say : “ alright.” Nothing
more. He asked to talk to me alone, and my parents and brother
left the room.
“Megan, can you tell me what happened?”
“ I don’t remember”
“ did you take any medication, drugs or consume
alcohol?”
“no”
“ Ok, very swell. Megan, from now on you have to watch
yourself. We found your blood pressure higher than normal which
could explain the passing out. Thankfully nothing bad but you
never know. I will give you something that will relieve you, but
please try not to stress.”
“Mhm. Yes doctor”
I didn’t care anymore. I didn’t care if I died or if
I was diagnosed with some disease. I will never be the old
me.
