Got You

At 5:49 AM IN TOWN HOSPITAL

"It ended there, saying Beckman a goodbye... I stayed in a coma for 3 weeks and after I woke up, I was in severe depression. I didn't leave my bed and to progress, I get out of my room. I let the sorrow and pain kill me, I let my grieve on myself, on Roman, on Rathod, and even my life and how I have become in less than a year.

I tried hard, really. Just see everything flow away those couple of months, ... I just couldn't, nightmares are hunting me down, I paused and suddenly it becomes my checkpoint. Oh and I am sorry when I hit you with that iron basket on your head, my friends were the important matter then... I wish I could save my friend"

Those were my last final words in my journey to Doctor Chanice. She was the same person who was with me when my fucking sister brought me here.

"Gosh, Helen. I.. I am speechless. It's been 19 hours staying here listening to you with zero dullness" Chanice said.

I chuckled.

"I am so sorry, Doc. I, I feel like I consumed everybody's energy and lives. I... I don't know what should I do or where should I go"

"I am the sorry one here for not hearing you out since the day you come here"

I smiled, I don't even feel sleepy. Actually, I am afraid to sleep.

"I guess, I will go home and I'll take another appointment with the secretary"

"Come at 2:00 PM on Sunday" She quickly said.

After 2 days of the weekend, wow! I got her excited about my miserable life.

I nodded with a quiet smile, I made my way out of the hospital. No one was there and how could be? We are after dawn.

I rode my car and drove away to my apartment. I went upstairs and opened the door to have Luca greeting me.

Luca my cutie little dog, I saw him in the streets the first time I see daylight after my shot, he looked so lost and sad. Celine took care of him for the last couple of months until I decided to take care of him.

I sat on the balcony with him. Enjoying the sunrise, I got enough of playing the victim, I had enough people feeling pity for me. I got enough from me.

"Let's give my little Luca a walk tomorrow?" I see softly said while patting Luca's head. He barked at me as a yes.

I chuckled.

"You, My little boy" I hugged him, I needed it. Even from a dog, they understand us more than ourselves.

"Did you enjoy it, buddy?" I said while patting his head while taking my breath. We were jogging at 9:00 AM. I didn't sleep well tho.

"Wanna drink, you must be thirsty," I said while walking with him to the lake. The same lake I sat in front of it several times.

Luca ran to drink while I paused to see the person who was setting in the same spot as usual.

"Hey, doggie. Where did you come from?" He grinned while playing with Luca.

Luca ran back to me, he turned to face the last one who can see.

"Birdie" He was surprised.

"Ryder"

He changed, We all changed.
