AFTER HOURS ✔

75

The next thing I know I was placed on the stretcher being taken inside the hospital.

At this point, I could not help but think that I have visited the hospital more than I have visited fast food places.

I was in the hospital room being shifted to the bed from the stretcher.

I watch him as he looks at me with every ounce of thing holding him together from crying.

The nurse hurried towards me and see the dosage before injecting me the injection.

It was able to calm me in mere seconds.

The drops of glucose started entering my body little by little.

I was noticing him through the glass door, he was frantic and worried talking to the doctor.

He then opened the door and came towards me.

"Loren are you okay?" he says and I mouth a yes because I was too tired to speak.

He sat on the bed, right beside my leg.

I try not to think about how things upon things are piling up when I thought I would have one of the most anticipated weeks that I had to go through for the main day which is in a few days but in reality I am spending every other week and day in the hospital.

" Yes, I am, " I say.

I hear him sigh just before he says " Loren you don't have to worry about the big day ".

I nod without saying anything.

It's not like he knew me for a long time but at least he knows the important things about me.

" I've talked to the doctors and they said a few meds along with little medical assistance you would be fine on the big day, "he said as he holds both of his hands over mine.

I open my eyes as I look at him with hope.

I hope it goes just the way he says it to

Or I would be so devastated about everything that has happened.

I just know that I would be so hard on myself and would beat up myself so badly if the day didn't go the way I want it to.

" Loren I will pack some of your essentials and be right back ?" he asks me

" Shall I call your mother or Jason until I would be back ?" he further questions

" I want to be alone," I tell him and he tries to say something but before that he stops himself and gets up.

"I'll be back as soon as possible Loren if there is anything you need just ring me ?" he says.

He gives me a curt nod before he leaves saying bye.

I hate to be the prisoner of my thoughts at this very moment.

I try anything and everything to occupy myself.

I just grab the notepad and pen which was on the table, starting to doodle a few designs on paper.

My nerves started to get the best of me since I knew I had very little time.

I've done my best, and I have given my best but still if there's anything more I can give I want to do it my all.

I get up lifting the packet of glucose drip as instructed carefully before I go to the washroom.

I take my time to pee, as a slightly sharp pain hits. I close my eyes, bearing it making a mental note that I have to inform it later to the doctor.

Once done I wash my hands, noticing my reflection in the mirror, not being a fan of it.

But that's the last thing I want to think and worry about.

I lay down continuing to draw, I've done a couple of drawings when I notice the door is opened, revealing Felix with a couple of bags.

" I am back Loren, I bought a few things which you might need, if you do need anything more please let me know," he said and I nod at him.

"Felix I want to go out to see the place where it's gonna happen, " I say even though I know it's not logically possible.

He gives me a tight lip when I think he would say no he surprises me by saying " I will see what I can do ", and he walks out to check the situation and analyze it.

He opened the door again and says " Loren get changed let's leave "

I remove the needle tube

I did not have to be told twice, I got changed into black leggings wearing an oversized hoodie on top, I grab a cap wearing it over.

I take the pills I was instructed to eat.

As I down the pills with water, I notice him flipping the sign ' Do not enter ' on the door.

I had my hands placed on either side of my pocket as I looked down following him.

We entered the elevator, I started to feel nauseated while he noticed and held me in his embrace.

The elevator door opened and he did not wait another moment to rush me out.

I took in some fresh air to breathe.

I feel better than worse.

We walked towards his car. I walked towards the passenger door but before my hand could reach the door handle, he opened the door for me.

I looked toward him before I entered the car.

I sat down as he ran towards the other side entering the driver's seat.

He began to drive as I was looking outside.

It was a convertible car so that did a job of making me feel good.

He had the location saved in the phone which was surprising.

We reached the place after some time and I was amazed by the site.

I had the image of the ID that they had provided me which I showed the security before entering.

Felix followed me.

I was amazed by the decoration in front of me.

It was incredible, it was wonderfully made with every detail perfectly pecked and arranged.
