....forever, I was dreaming about my girl. I was sleeping in the hospital chair. It was uncomfortable, but I promised my parents not to go anywhere untill Josephine felt better. A nurse shook my shoulder said something, when I asked her to repeat again, she frowned and repeated more slowly: "Come to see the doctor, your foot looks so bad."
I obeyed her. During bandaging I asked about Jo. The doctor assured me that everything would be fine. My relief sigh reeled around the rehab room. In the hall, my phone informed me about my new message in my e-mail. It was a letter from the college. "I must accept its offer, I must save my girl, I must stop doing these things with her. She will find a real, good boyfriend and I must be happy for her." - such thoughts destroyed me second by second. For the sake of her, I had to do it. I had already made my decision.
I heard somebody's heels along the corridor. Mum and Toby greeted me. Toby passed me by and went to Jo's medical room. Mum stayed with me.
"Jay, are you ok? You look tired." - mum bekoned me to sit next to her.
"I'm alright. Better than Josephine."- I tried to smile, but it was a weak attempt.
"It's time to decide with your college. Hanna said Tracy was going to enter the college in her city."- She read my mind.
"I think, I will try there. Tracy told me about this college much, and I sent my documents. Today, my request was agreed."- I whispered as if I was afraid that Jo could listen to us. She would be upset of my decision.
"But, you wanna study here, at home."- Mum's eyes were so kind. Her face reminded me Jo's face.
"I've changed my mind. I want to live like a real student, you know, a campus, a student's party, new friends and my own life."- But I didn't wish two things: be far from Jo and presence of Tracy sometimes annoyed me.
"Ok, me and your dad respect your decision. We will miss you."- She stood up and said hello to the doctor who had come out to say that Jo would be at home in three weeks.
"How will I share this news with her, I can't imagine? She will hate me, I know her. We will argue again. Darn off! What the hell? Why we cannot be happy together! Why do we suffer? Why does the social life command and rule our destiny." - I clicked the agreement and responded to the college letter that I would come in August, 30.
Toby came out closing the door carefully not to disturb Jo.
"Ok, then. Jo calls you, Jayden. But I consider you must not go there, she is sleeping now. The doctor said Jo needed to have a psychologist to find out what happened this night. But I know what happened."- Toby was like an eagle following for its prey.
His words touched my heart, of course, I blamed myself and heard how Jo screamed when we reached the hospital. She was having bodyache. I wanna change our roles. Better I had fallen down and suffered from terrible ache.
"Toby, don't start your suspicious things! Not here, at least!"- I clenched my fists so my fingers crunched.
"Oh, Jayden! Poor Jayden! May I tell your mum one secret and interesting story!" - Obviously, he mocked at me.
"What story, Jayden?"- Mum started to worry.
"Never mind. This story is not for you. It connects only me and Toby. He can't forget how I have punched him, that's why he tells some ridiculous things."- Mum rolled her eyes up and gonna go out. Then Toby stopped her by his stunning phrase: "Misses Bay, don't you know that your son seduces Josephine!"
