Andres Mom: um he got in a car accident…

Me: W-WHAT!!!

Andres Mom: yeah… um come in please. (She said with a shaky voice)

I came in and sat on the couch with her. She started crying hard and I just comforted her.

Me: so how did the accident happen? (I asked with teary eyes)

Andres Mom: I don’t know, the police don’t know, the doctors don’t know and we can’t ask Andre because…

Me: because???

Andres Mom: my son is in the hospital in a coma. (She cried out)

I hugged her and she hugged back

Me: why don’t we go visit him, together?

Andres Mom: yeah sure, let’s go

We got in her car and a few seconds later I burst into tears. Andre’s mom looked at me with sympathy and rubbed my back. She was also shedding tears.

We finally arrived at the hospital

Nurse: hello

Andres Mom:   hi I need the room for Andre Soft. (She said that with a shaky voice)

Nurse: you must be related to see that patient because of his condition, so are you both related to him?

Me: n- (Andres Mom interrupted me)

Andres Mom: yes I’m his mother and this is his sister

Nurse: ok room 341

Andres Mom: thank you

We started walking down the halls trying to find the room

Me: why’d you lie to the nurse, I’m not his sister

Andres Mom: well you’re defiantly family to us and you always to come to us with anything. You could consider us as your second family.

Me: more like only

Andres Mom: what are you talking about?

Me: my mom’s kicking me out and I have till a week to get out

Andres Mom: what? What happened? (She asked concerned)

Me: long story

Andres Mom: well you can stay with us as long as you like

Me: (I hugged her) thank you

Andres Mom: no problem sweetheart (she kissed my forehead)

We finally reached the room and went in. seeing Andre like that scared me. I know it’s weird but I feel like if I touch anything, that I might unplug something are do something by mistake without even noticing. Andre’s mom grabbed 2 chairs and put it beside the bed. She sat down and motioned me to come sit down with her. I shook my head and just stud there.

Andres Mom: What’s wrong?

Me: I’m just scared

Andres Mom: you don’t have to be, just come sit down.

I went and sat down. I held his hand while Andre’s mom stroked the top of his forehead. I looked at Andre, and then tears started to pour again. A few seconds after I heard Andre’s mom crying.
