Next morning I woke up, gave my dad pills, go ready for school and drove to the school.
"Hi girls" I said to my friends and we hugged.
"Hey. Today is Marco doing a party. Wanna come?" Camila asked me.
"I have work, but we can hang out in Saturday or Sunday. I will be free."
"Oh come on. It's Friday, who would go to the work instead of super cool party?" Julia said.
"Well, me. I need to go to the work."
"You never hang out with us! Do you even care about us? Why are you even friend with us if you don't want to hang out?!" Julia got mad at me.
"I do care about you and I want to hang out with you. I just have work."
"Come on Sara and Julia, let's go" Camila said and they left.
"Hey Ams" Marco said and put his arm around me.
"Hey creep. Get your arm away from me."
"Someone's mad. You coming to my party?" he asked and put his arm away.
"I have work."
"Boooring" he said and left.
I went to the classroom and I saw my friends talking to each other. I just checked my phone. And Marco came and took my phone.
"Give it back!" I yelled at him.
"Make me!" he said and ran away. I chased him.
"Hey! You better get me my phone back or I will fight you" I joked.
"Hahaha" he laughed and he tripped and my phone fall on the ground. "Do you think I broke your screen?"
"I don't know, but I am scared to find out" I took my phone from the ground and it was broken.
"Amalia, I am so sorry. I didn't mean to."
"It's fine Marco" I smiled and went to my classroom.
Marco came to me and apologised again. "I am truly sorry, but I am sure your dad will buy a new one."
"It's fine."
The hours passed really slowly and it was our last lesson, english again, but now with everyone from my class. I was really tired and I fall asleep.
"Amalia? Amalia!" Mrs. López tried to wake me up.
"I am so sorry. I am tired."
"Do you have the project here?" I shaked my head and I gave her the project. "This is not a place where you can sleep."
"I am so sorry. I was doing that project almost all night."
"Well, you should have done that sooner."
"I am sorry."
After school I went to the work.
"You look terrible" José said.
"Nice to see you too José."
"You should go home Ams" he said and got me food for me and my dad.
"I need the money."
"It's okay, you can come tomorrow, okay? I hired a new helper, because I saw how crazy it was yesterday."
"Oh, okay. Thank you so much."
"Get some sleep. You look really tired kid."
"Okay, bye José."
I got home and I checked on dad. And then I went to take some nap. After a while I woke up and I checked on my dad, because he was coughing.
"Hold up dad! I am calling an ambulance!" I did as I said.
After a while they were here and they took dad. I stayed home for a bit and I started crying. After few minutes I went to the car and I went to the hospital.
"Hello, I am Amalia Rodríguez, I have a dad here. Mateo Rodríguez."
"It's in the second floor, room number 51, but do not go there yet."
"Thank you so much" I said and I went to sit in the waiting room.
"Miss Rodríguez?"
"Yes, that's me" I smiled.
"Your dad is okay, he will just have to stay here for couple of days. You saved your dad's life by calling the ambulance."
"My dad told me what to do the day when he found out about this, so I know what to do whenever this happens."
"I suggest if you go home and rest, your dad needs rest too. Tomorrow you can stop by."
"Thank you doctor, I will" I smiled and I left.
I went to my car and cried. Pablo called me and I didn't pick up.
