Not my fault,My fate

Chapter Thirty-nine

Theme: Home sweet home

😊🦋 TANIA'S POV 🦋💅

  Days slowly turned into weeks and weeks into months,the day finally came when I was going to be discharged from the hospital. The walls of this sanctuary held so many events and memories,and I was going to make tons of memories outside those walls.

   During my stay at the hospital, I met Adrian's mum__ I was told she was also admitted in this same hospital due to a car accident, I could see the bandage on her but luckily it wasn't a severe injury. I was on the sickbed as we both talked and giggled together,she told me about Adrian's childhood and how he changed when he met me,she kept thanking me..... What could I say,I just told him to do the right thing. I didn't imagine to meet her in this state though,i thought probably in a pretty dress over some fancy dinner with Adrian but fate took its turn and there we were,she was so nice to me that I forgot the state I was in.

   Hailey is now in her senior year and two more semesters and she's out of high school. She's made quite a few new friends since my absence in school,she has stopped wearing her eyeglasses and those weird headphones that don't 'work',she even has a crush...... I couldn't believe it when she told me, my own Hail has a boy she likes😳 and this 'boy' is a brother to Brenda Gibson,one of Bianca's puppet cameras..... That couldn't be more shocking,a brother to someone that Hailey despise so much,truly Love is Blind.

   I also remember a night in the hospital when Adrian got back from Night class with pizza for both of us. As we ate the pizza and talked about technically everything there was to know about me,he popped a question.

    "What would you like to become in the future??" Adrian asked.

   "Become??" I asked as I took a pause from eating.

   "Yeah,what do you wanna be in the nearest future??"

      "I don't know..... Honestly, I've never really thought about that before" I replied.

   "Are you for real?!"

    "Yes"

"Okay that's a tough one but let's start from here,what do you have an interest in??" Adrian asked as he stared directly into my eyes.

   "Interest? Like hobbies?"

"No no,hobbies are different__they are activities you enjoy doing during your free time, but when you have interest in something or someone, you want to know or learn more about them and then you start working towards it"

   "Hmm..... The way you have an interest in me right?!" I said with twinkling eyes looking at his expression.

     "Yeah yeah like that" He said smiling so hard that all his dentition showed,his smile was really beautiful then he got serious again..... "So what are your interest in??"

   "Well,technically I don't have interest in studying, I have interest in running away,thinking like the world will end tomorrow, interest in what I wear and my fancy bracelet__ and yeah I have an interest in a boy whose name starts with an A and a D and a R and an I and another A....."

    "Babe!! Cmon I'm serious" Adrian said as he cuts in.

   "OK,Music!" I said.

   "Music??" Adrian asked.

   "Yeah, I've always loved to sing and play the instruments. I was into music when I was little, my twin and I had a band,I can't remember the name of the band but then it was all about doing what we loved the most__Making Music. We already told our parents that we were gonna be artistes when we are older but everything changed..... It all just took a turn after the accident. My world became so dark and I just dropped music,I burned my instruments and my sister's, I left everything regarding music behind" I said.

   "Whoa! That's a tough one,but have you ever felt like going back to singing,I mean you loved it" Adrian asked.

    "Yeah I loved it but..... Going back,over the years I couldn't bring myself to go back. If I go back to music, its just going to bring back sad memories of those times when I played with my sister and I might lose focus and..... And...."

     "Babe,you can't lose focus,its something that's in here..... Its something you have a great interest in,something that made you happy while you were doing it. The only memory its gonna bring are happy memories, trust me.... So go for it!! I'll always be here to cheer you on.

   " Its been so long,I've forgotten so many things,I don't know how to play the instruments anymore...... I don't even know if I can still sing"

   "You can do anything Tania,you just have to set your mind to it. And remember I asked about what you wanna become in the future..... So till then,you'll just work on yourself in the necessary areas,no slacking,no negative energy,just positivity and good vibes!!" Adrian said.

   I remember after that day when I had that conversation with Adrian,I wrote a list of so many things I wanted to do after I leave the hospital and yes!.... There were tons of things I wanted to try with Adrian now that we are dating.

   My brother Chase wasn't here today to see me get discharged, he passed his interview and now he's studying Economics in the University. His hard work paid off and he made sure not to break his promise to me. When I finally got home,I ran upstairs to my bedroom..... Oh my I've missed my bed! And my window where I got to peep outside to catch a glimpse of Adrian,oh my I've missed you window!

   Inasmuch as there were so many things I missed and many things I wanted to catch up with,there was one very important thing I had to clear before any thing else.

   (Knock.     Knock. )

"I'm coming....." The voice from inside said.

  After I waited at the door for someone to come open.....finally it was opened.

   "You!! What are you doing here?!" The voice said as the door was opened.
