Alejo's point of view:
I felt the pain throughout my veins. My skin was pale, my body felt numb and weak. I can't stand or get up from my weak state. Estrella... I remember she helped me into the hospital, but as she left me a part of me felt like it was breaking apart. My heart turned bitter and cold, from the loss of her presence. I wish I could have told her to stay with me longer, to be by my side.
But, I know that's a selfish request, I know they should leave soon. Also, I know she has already done so much for me, being by my side and caring about me; and I know if she was by my side she might do certain things that will change her or change who she is. I remember how when we went to the local clinic she carried that crowbar and almost attacked the nurse. I know it sounds selfish because she wants to help me, but...
I don't want anyone or anything to change her. I hope she does not lose herself, so she can shine bright like the star she is.
Then the nurse appeared to him ready to give him the news. "Hello Alejo, this condition of yours being symptoms of dysentery, you will need to stay here for a while," the nurse stated. "Part of the reason is that due to you not receiving much medicine or treatment, your condition has gotten worse; our records show you have dehydration," the nurse replied with a solemn face.
My face twisted with anxiety and fear, my worry grew inside of me as I wanted to leave now. "Really?! Is there another way for me to heal faster? I have dreams and my sweetheart is waiting for me!" I shouted, startling the nurse.
The nurse frowned as she looked at me, "I'm sorry, your body needs to take time to heal, so please be patient and just wait until you are ready," she stated.
I frowned, partly because I knew she was right, my body is too weak so I can't even do anything by myself. If I want to get out of here faster and find Estrella; I have to get better soon.
Author's note: This may seem short, compared to normal fanfiction but I hope it's enough to satisfy people as a first chapter. Thank you for reading.
