Demetrius wake up, wake up !! I felt my body being shaken violently, opening my eyes. I saw Alexis over my face looking frightened. I didn't even have enough time to properly wake up. I lifted myself.
"Alex what's wrong" she looked so distressed, her eyes were bloodshot red. Her lip was quivering as if she went mute.
"Lex, come on talk to me what's wrong, I asked her again hoping this time she would have the strength to tell me something finally. I desperately wanted to know what was going on but I had to remember to be patient with her when she was uneasy, it would take her a minute to be able to speak.
I held her small hand in mine reassuring her that I'm listening to what she had to say. I did my best not to show it but I was worried as to what she had to tell.
"Daddy is taking alcohol and something that looks like super small marshmallows," she said. I frowned my face, not understanding what she meant by small marshmallows. Then it hit me, she was talking about pills. MY DAD is popping pills what the fuck.
"Alexis stay in my room ok, don't leave till I come back", I got out of my bed and ran outside my room, my mom was already out for work and my dad was supposed to be getting ready for his shift himself.
I walked quietly towards the bathroom that was slightly opened, opening it up fully I saw my dad seizing as he sat on the closed toilet seat. I felt sick, I lost all sensation in my body. I watched as his eyes rolled backward and his mouth foamed, all I could think was why, why would he do this and how did I never notice his possible drug usage.
I always knew that he had an alcohol problem and could get violent at a rapid speed but never did I think that he popped pills. Regardless I couldn't let another second go by, I got myself together and ran towards the house phone in the living room dialling 911.
"911 what's your emergency ?" the lady on the other side said to me
"Um, my d-dad overdosed and he's foaming in his mouth, I'm scared I-I don't know what to do," I told the dispatch lady. I could feel tears coming down my cheek, I didn't want to be the reason died.
"I'm gonna need you to calm down for me sweaty ok, Just tell me your address," she asked me calmly.
" I live on 17 Brookwood Ave," I told her as I walked back towards my dad, by then he was unconscious
"Please hurry," I said as I lost my composure, everything was moving so fast, I made my way to my bedroom to check on Alexis and I saw that she was sleeping. I put my batman blanket over her small body, crouching down to kiss her forehead.
