I remember waking up feeling nauseous, I was numb

I bounced in an out of consciousness

When I snapped out of my daze, I had a hand on my forehead

I opened my eyes and saw that I was in a tub of ice

The bathtub was (clean) but still stained with what? I didn't want to know

"What's going on," I asked groggily

"Where am I?"

"You're gonna be ok"  he said softly

"...that's not what I asked" I said, while beginning to get suspicious

"What's going on here!" I said louder

I sat up in the tub, and with a worried voice Jeff asked me to sit back down

"You need to rest! A lot just happened! You can't just jump up like that!"

"I don't care!! I can do whatever the fuck I want! What's going on!"
I said as I climbed

I clenched my teeth as he stood silently

I was going to reach up and slap him,

"You bastard" I whispered

Tears pricked at my eyes, but I hung my head so he could see it

I sunk to the floor, and clutched what's remaining... Of my left arm

"It's gone" I whispered through a shaky voice

Just a small stump sat below my shoulder

"I know a guy with a scalpel and a bone saw" he said proudly

"And it just so happens he led me a favor"

"It's gone" I repeated

I couldn't see his face, but it got sad

"I'm... Im so sorry Sophie"

"For your arm... Your legs... For everything, I'm sorry"

I got up and yelled as I sobbed

"DONT YOU DARE JUST APOLOGIZE AND ACT LIK IT CAN ALL GO AWAY!!!! DONT YOU DARE EVEN APOLOGIZE TO ME"

"Wait... What did you call me?" I whispered

He reached out to me with sad eyes

"...Sophie please"

"Don't you dare" I whispered

I ran out clutching my stump of an arm

How did it come to this?

How did everything go so wrong?
