“Haley?”

Mum?

Oh no, sorry Zan that idiot of a woman.

“Dad! Mum! Help!”

“Haley?”

Why does she keep asking my name as a question? So annoying.

“Hello Haley, it’s me again, Zan, I’ve come to say hi.”

Oh it’s you again, Zan. Hi.

Deep down I’m kind of relieved that she’s come here, I mean spoken to me again, because a) I don’t feel so alone when she’s here. B) There’s a better chance of me finding out what the hell is going on!

What the hell is going on?

“Haley, I’m sorry about what happened the other day...actually I’m not going to go there, but I only have one with for you, and that i for you to wake up!”

I have tried, Zan. I have tried to get up, the consequences were scary and I don’t want to go through that again ok? OK? I HAVE TRIED, IT’S NOT THAT I LIKE BEING IN THIS SITUATION IT’S THAT I PHYSICALLY CAN’T MOVE, AND I NEED YOU TO TELL ME WHATS GOING ON! BUT YOUR NOT! YOU WERE PROBABLY A CRAP SOCIAL WORKER IF YOU EVER WERE ONE! NEVER TELLING ANYONE ANYTHING. JUST BECAUSE I CAN’T MOVE DOESN’T MEAN YOU CAN’T TELL ME, AND DOESN’T MEAN I CAN’T HEAR YOU. OKAY?

“Can you hear me Haley? The nurses say you can, is it true? I think it is after the way you reacted when I said...oh never mind.”

W****.

  “Oh I’m not very good at this am I? Oh lord, I don’t know whether to tell you or not...rubbish aren’t I?”

You know what Zan. I completely agree. Absolute rubbish.

“Oh Haley I’m so sorry about what happened, you know, everything...”

I can’t remember ‘everything’. I will lose it soon and go completely off the rails.

“Look, do you or don’t you want to know what happened?”

Yes please, that would be lovely.

“OH GOD! You know, I have never ever been in this situation before...I don’t know what to do! Do I tell you do I not? Do I shout do I not? Do I speak gently do I not? Oh Haley why did this have to happen to you? Right, I’m going to have to make a decision, I think I’m going to tell you, but over a period of time...lord help me, it’s just so hard!

Well what a brilliant sop story! Bravo, bravo, in case you hadn’t noticed, I don’t care. If it’s anyone’s sop story it’s my sop story.  To be honest with you I don’t give a damn what you do, I don’t think anyone would in this situation. So you’re worrying about the wrong thing there. Um, oh! And also thank you for finally making a decision. I understand your pressure.  *note sarcasm*

I’m the one who doesn’t know what’s going on.

I’M THE ONE WHO DOESN’T KNOW WHETHER SHS ALIVE OR DEAD.

“Well Haley, let’s not waste any time!”

Yes let’s not.

“This might be tough,”

Oh joy.

“It might be tricky,”

Fab.

“It will probably be exhausting... emotionally and physically,”

*yawn*

“but together we’ll get through this, nasty situation, together. You and together Haley,”

*yuck*

I would stick my hand down my throat and pretend to be sick but I can’t, because I can’t move.

“Are you ready Haley?”

I was born ready.
