I jolted up right gasping.
A sudden sharp pain shot through my shoulder my hand flew to the spot of my agony, I grasped for something expecting to find a knife or a branding iron imbedded in my chest.
But my fingers closed around Gauze and bandages that I don't remember having on.
Then it all came to me, the blood the gun the man on the floor the bullet hurtling towards me then nothing. I couldn't remember anything after that.
At that moment i realised I wasn't alone. Three sets of eyes were staring at me, the man in scrubs was indifferent and shrugged returning to business checking my IV.
The man in the white coat, a doctor was looking at me reassuringly. My eyes swept the room quickly and came to rest upon Myra's horrified expression.
"What are you doing here?" I snapped "you shot me, and now all of a sudden your here? Where's the flowers or the apology card aye?" I was furious.
"Aaron I..." She began
"Why the actual flip did you shoot me anyway?!" I demanded
"I wasn't planning on you leaving. You could have compromised my entire life's work. I couldn't let you go free after all you know, and plus I missed, which doesn't normally happen so consider yourself lucky ."She stated.
"Understand?" I scoffed 'you've got to be kidding me."
" Aaron could we please put this all behind us ?" She asked "we have a bigger issues now."
"Bigger issues...?" I asked cautiously "we? Hahah no if you think that Im going to help you after what you've done to our delusional." I laughed.
" well maybe you'll reconsider when you see this." Turning to the computer she quickly typed in the password and the video of someone in my office began to play. Lilian.
I gasped horrified watching anticipating. The note meet Myra had been in my office. Shit. I was confident I could fix this though.
"What's wrong with this? I asked "she's smashing my stuff up? How does this make a problem for you?"
"Oh wait. It gets better." She said curtly.
I watched a my heart rate rising with every second.
Lilian had began to calm down anger settled amongst her beautiful frame. Her eyes rested on the computer. No no no please no I prayed. But after three password attempts she was in. I gasped.
Myra shut down the video.
"You have to deal with this. now." Her cold eyes burning through me. "Rest up. Coz if you fail to fix this shit you've caused. I won't miss again."
I took a slow deep breath.
And lay back on the pillow, there was a soft humming noise and I looked sideways, the doctor was next to me with a giant syringe putting it into my IV machine.
"Don't worry Aaron, this will make you feel better. Have good sleep you'll need it." He said.
I watched the yellow medicine come through the small tube plugged into my arm. It
was Cold I could feel it going up my arm.
A second later my eyes began to droop a heavy weight on my body making it impossible to move, my breathing slowed and I closed my eyes welcoming the delicious peace that overcame me.
