My Destiny

Chapter 31

"Doctor is she alright?", I asked a man standing infront of me. He was young, curly haired. He was tall, around five foot eight inches maybe. He was looking calm compared to me who was freaked out. I had never seen Anaya in this condition. On top of that we all were drunk, which is basically illegal though we are legal age.

I found her on the floor, the cup was still in her hand. Her breathing was very slow. The moment I saw her, my heart stopped. Thankfully, Ryan got his car. We rushed to the hospital as soon as possible. They got the stretcher and helped us to lay her down on it. He didn't move, only her breathing gave me little life inside me. Her lips turned purple.

"She has syncope"

"She has what?", my brain wasn't functioning. All the hangover drained out as soon as I saw her lying on the floor.

"You don't have to worry. It is very common among people. Basically it happens when the brain doesn't receive enough blood flow. And few other symptoms are low blood pressure and consumption of excess alcohol. Well in this case it is alcohol and low blood pressure.", He paused, waiting for me to speak.

"So, now what's the solution"

"I have given few medicines you can buy them. This may make her feel alright. And remember she isn't allowed to consume excess alcohol. It wouldn't be good for her body. For now you can visit her", I walked past him and went to the room where she was. 

When I saw her, I left a sigh out. She was sitting on the bed, in the hospital gown, looking perfectly alright as if nothing had happened to her.

"Thank god your alright"

"Nothing happened, looks like alcohol took over my body", she rolled her eyes. I went and gave her a hug.

"Anaya", I heard a female voice coming from behind. I turned to look who it was, it was her mother.

"Are you alright?", there were tears in her eyes, worry took all over her face.

"Yes mom, am alright", Anaya's mother was very protective and at times possessive about her. Her father left her and married another women when she was ten. I still remember she cried the entire day for her father to come back.. I was with her all the time. I remember her mother used to cry as well, at times she used to sit lifelessly. But eventually they moved on from that. 

I was angry as well as feeling sad for her. 

"You should go and take some rest", Anaya gave a concerning look.

"You have been out the entire night, your mother must be worrying and plus your phone is dead"

She is right. I am drunk, my head hurts now. I need to go and get some sleep as well. I don't want my mom to freak out and see me in this horrible condition.

"Fine, take care. If you need anything, am just a call away", she nodded and I left. When I came out of the hospital, Ryan was leaning against his car. When I started walking towards him, he lift his head up and looked at me. He came running towards me and gave me a hug which I needed badly. Tears started to fall from my eyes, involuntarily. It was the alcohol getting my adrenaline to its peak or was it Anaya's condition which was bothering me. He kept holding me until I made some distance between us. I didn't want to cry and worry him.

"Are you okay?", his hands cupped my face.

"Yeah am fine. I don't know why I started crying. Just take me home", he opened the car door for me and I sat inside. 

We drove in silence except for the part when he was asking about Anaya's health. In next twenty minutes we reached my house. I got  down gave him  a goodnight kiss and started walking towards my house.

I entered, it was three in the morning. My mom was standing right there as I entered.

"Holy shit mom, you scared me", I was drunk. I was probably imagining her standing but I was wrong when she came close to me.

"What have you done to yourself", she yelled. The voice increased the ache in my head.

"Mom, just don't shout"

"Oh, now your gonna tell me what to do"

"For god sake, it was my birthday"

"Yeah honey, I know but that doesn't mean you get wasted like this", her voice much louder. It was irritating me, after so much fun, Anaya being admitted to hospital is what I get to hear.

"Was Ryan there", I was surprised yet confused.

"Yeah ofcourse he'll be there. He is my boyfriend"

"Did you guys get intimate", my throat dried. I didn't know what to say, lie to her or hide the truth.

"What the hell mom? Why would you ask that", I freaked out. I had to lie. She can't know I had sex with him though he is my boyfriend not any friends with benefits type. My entire body was getting heated up due to the fear rising in me.

"Just say"

"No"

"No what"

"I didn't have sex with him.", I lied. I was furious, my head was hurting after having multiple glasses of alcohol. I was even worried about Anaya's health. And now she wants to know whether we had sex or not. Seriously.

"I don't know what to say"

"Really? After lashing out at me and asking me whether I had sex with my boyfriend, which I just ADMITTED I didn't, you have nothing to say", I realized my voice was very loud. I regret it. But I didn't have any choice, I can't let her always ask me every single detail about my life. Specially sex being so intimate.

"Am going to bed"

"Huh?", I was confused by her behavior. She was definitely acting different. At one moment she wants to know about what happened and next it's just off. 

I walked pass her and went straight to my room. I removed my clothes washed my face, which now was looking more horrible as if I didn't sleep for days. I didn't bother how things were thrown in my room and I went to my bed. It was my birthday and she scolded me. I can't believe that she did that.
