Chapter 4
Mitch's POV
I woke up with this horrible pain on my chest and stomach. I slowly opened my eyes and recognised that I wasn't sleeping on my own bed. I blinked a few times and after gaining full sight I looked around. I think I'm in the hospital but I'm not sure. The last thing I remembered was walking in the school's hallway. Then it all came back to me. I remembered that I bumped into someone and his phone fell down. And he started to beat me up and the last thing that I remembered was laying on the floor helplessly after being slammed to the locker. I tried to move but the pain on my stomach forbade me to do so.
"Oh fuck." I groaned as I tried to move once again and after trying multiple times and yet failing at every attemp, I gave up. I searched for my phone and failed miserably because I can't even move my body. I got bored and decided to go back to sleep. As I was about to close my eyes, the door opened and there walked in a nurse.
"Hi, how are you feeling?"
"Not good. My body is in pain."
"Oh, it's normal. But I'm going to give you some painkillers."
"Okay. But um.. who took me here?"
"Someone by the name Scott. I think he's your friend. Oh and there was a girl too. You're lucky that they took you here or your pain will be worse." She said while changing the IV bag.
"Okay I'm done here." She said when she's done changing the bag.
"Thanks."
"No problem dear. Do you want me to call your friends in?"
"Um.. sure. Thanks"
"Okay."
A moment later, I saw the door opened and the guy whom I bumped into earlier came in. Walking beside him is a girl that I assumed was his girlfriend. They look cute together.
"Hi I'm Kirstie." The girl said while smiling at me.
"I'm Mitch. Nice to meet you." I smiled back to her.
I saw that the guy was standing there awkwardly. He seemed nervous and I didn't know why. He was sweating and almost shaking. Then I saw the girl looked at him as if telling him something. He then cleared his throat and started to speak.
"Um.. I'm Scott. And.. um.. I'm sorry for beating you up because you broke my phone. I felt so stupid for doing that and I really regret it. So... um.. yeah.. I'm sorry."
"Oh my god, I broke your phone? I'm so sorry. I will replace it once I can get out from this place. Or... or you can take my card and go to the mall now to buy a new one." God, I felt bad for breaking his phone. Now I felt stupid for not paying attention when I was walking.
"It's okay. I was about to buy a new one anyway. Don't worry about it. Oh and don't worry about the hospital bill. It's on me"
"No you don't need to do this. It was my mistake. I wasn't looking where I was going."
"No it's not your fault. Please just do what I told you to. I already feel bad for beating you up and I don't need to feel anymore of that because you pay for my phone. Please?"
"Fine." I sighed in defeat. "And thank you."
"No problem."
"So Mitch, where are you from? Because I don't remember seeing you last year." Kirstie asked me.
"I just moved here this week."
"Why?"
"Because um.. something happened in my old school so I need to move here."
We chatted for an hour and talk about each other's likes and dislikes. I learned that Kirstie and Scott is also in the drama club and when I told them that I'm in too they seemed to be very excited. They even wanted to hear me sing but I never sing in front of anybody that i just knew. It's not that I'm shy, but I have this really high and unique voice and I don't want people to judge me by the way I sing so I just never let them hear me sing. Kirstie also asked me about my opinion on the school. I just said that it was okay in general, but some people like Luke is annoying. We talked for a few more hours and it’s finally time for them to go home. After exchanging phone numbers they said bye and left me alone in the room.
My uncle was on a business trip so he couldn’t visit me so here I am laying on a hospital bed in a hospital room alone with nothing to do. I finally found my phone which was on the table next to my bed and started to look my school up on google. I was super bored and curious so I opened some news regarding our school. After hours of stalking, I stumbled upon a very interesting article. The article is about the school’s biggest donor and there was a picture of a family with someone familiar to me in it. I looked at the description and found the answer that I was looking for. There, written with bold words are the word Scott Hoying.
"Look at what you've done you dumbass!! Are you blind or something??? Or are you so stupid that you don't know that nobody, not even GOD, can bump into me???!!"
Those words came back to me. Now I know why he said that. He's the son of the school's biggest donor. God I was so stupid. How could I bump into someone as important as him? Now I felt guilty.
I was tempted to call Kirstie to ask her more about the kids at school because I don't want this thing with Scott to happen again. After debating whether or not should I call her, I decided to just ask her when I got back to school. With that, I drift into a deep sleep.
