Islam Is My Diamond

Chapter 6- Accidents Happen

"Wake up, its Fajr (first prayer of the day) time," I was shaking Ella awake, and I was really getting impatient. This girl is like a died corpse when she sleeps. I am pretty sure if there was a parade outside she would still be  sound asleep.

"One minute, let me just finish this dream. I still didn't get to the good part yet," she mumbled .

I have had it with this girl. I didn't want to waste anymore time so I got up from the bed wore a sweater and wrapped a scarf around my head then spread out the prayer mat. I already made wudu before waking Ella up, so I went ahead and started praying. After I finished praying my Sunnah and Fard (Compulsory) salah, I marched straight to the bathroom and started looking around for a cup. If she wasn't going to wake up like a normal person their was only one way to do it. I found a cup right next to the sink, it was red and had a spider-man picture on it. I filled it up with freezing cold water so when I pour it on her face she would get up without giving me a hard time. 

Just as I finished filling it up, I walked back slowly keeping my eyes on the cup and being extra careful not to spill any on the marble floor. It's enough I was wearing socks while walking on this slippery floor. I was halfway to her room when I heard a door open; the moment I looked up I was hit with a strong force and I fell with a loud thump on the hard ground. I felt a stab of pain shoot down my back, and I felt like my head was going to explode. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw black spots everywhere which made me close my eyes again. A whimper escaped my mouth, from how much my head hurt I couldn't open my eyes. I couldn't tell who's strong hands was trying to help me get up from the floor, until.....

"I am so sorry, I didn't see you there it was to dark and an-, are you okay?," after finding out who those hands and that voice belonged to I tried to get up, but it was to painful my head felt like it was being squeezed like a sponge.

" I-I am fine," in reality I wasn't I just don't want to look weak.

"Can you try to stand up?" he sounded so lost like he doesn't know how to handle the situation, and I honestly don't blame him cause I don't know how to handle it myself.

"No, I can't it hurts," I replied. It really did hurt, I still had my eyes closed afraid that if I opened them the pain would increase.

"What is going on here, and why is the floor wet?" I heard a yawning Ella say.

"Ella, help me get Ru- Amal into your room. She slipped and now she can't get up," I don't know if I was hallucinating but he sounded so worried. It was kind of cute to be honest.

"WHAT?! Is she gonna be okay? You know what, she is going to be okay just get her into my room. I will clean the floor before anybody else slips." Right after she said that I felt strong arms left me up from the floor. The amount of pain I felt after that was unbearable and next thing I know everything went blank.

*****

As soon as I opened my eyes I saw that I was in a pale blue room. For a second, I thought that I was in Ella's room, but her room wasn't that kind of blue it was more of a turquoise color. I looked around and felt  wires stuck to my head and heart, and I saw that The beeping sound was coming from an electrocardiogram. I was so confused on how I got here; I didn't remember anything. Ho did I ended up in a hospital? The last thing I remember was going to sleep after my conversation with Ella.

"Oh, you are awake," I turned my head fast to see a nurse dressed in the same blue as the room, but in the same time felt a sharp pain run through my skull. It was like someone was trying to crack open my head with an ax.

"Ah," I winced. It hurt so much I never felt anything like it before.

My throat felt so dry and scratchy. What the heck?
