Alex

Sweat filled my forehead.

It was 11 at night and I was exhausted.

I paced the room waiting impatiently.

This wasn't the best ideal I had for a Friday night.

Or any night in general.

I felt a burn in the back of my throat.

"Mrs.Wilson the doctor walked up to us.

Mrs.Wilson jolted up from her seat.

"Yes?" She smiled weakly.

"Your daughter seems to be in a stable condition as if right now. You may visit her if you would like." her face lit up.

She grabbed my arm and lead me to Anastasia's room.

I walked in and my heart instantly dropped.

The color of her face drained, leaving a lifeless pale tone.

Sweat beaded on her forehead and she breathed heavily.

I sat down next to her, touching her arm so she was acknowledged of me and her moms presence.

She opened her eyes and gave a warm smile.

"Hey." her voice was hoarse.

"Hey. How are you feeling?" I say, my voice shaking.

"Better than ever." she managed to let out a laugh.

"That's good to hear... Well your mom is here too." I pointed.

"I'm going to let you guys talk. Ill get a quick snack. Want anything? I suggested using my thumb to point to the door.

She shook her head slightly. "No thank you Alex." She insisted.

I nodded, taking that as my cue to leave.

Anastasia

"hello sweet." my mom grabbed my hand.

"Hey mom."

"you use to have panic attacks a lot when you were younger." She says weakly.

"I thought I was going to lose my daughter." She fought back her tears.
"But you were such a strong girl. I knew you would pull through. Then you stopped having them for awhile and I thought that your suffering will finally come to an end. And I was relieved."

She sniffled, wiping her eyes with the back of her hand.

"And then today happened. And I was petrified." Tears began to form at her eyes.

"Mom, you dont have to worry about me. I'm fine." I say, squeezing her hand.

"Oh I wish you were fine. And I knew you were fine. Till I looked into your eyes."

I was dumbfounded, not knowing what she meant.

"I saw confusion and hurt... And pain. And memories flashed through my mind. You weren't fine. My baby girl isn't fine." she laughed.

"I'm your mom and I never noticed until now." I forced my arm up to my moms face and wiped her tears away.

"Stop worrying mom." I smile. "I'm okay."

"I hope so dear. I really do."
