Schizophrenia [#Wattys2017]

[18] Revealed

Tess's POV

I wake by the sounds of shattering glass.

Who was downstairs?

I quietly tip-toed down the stairs to find Josh panicking over the glass covered floor in the kitchen.

"Josh?" He immediately turned around to face me and gave me a nervous smile.

"Er... Sorry about this," he said while gesturing towards the mess he had created on the wooden floor.

"What are you doing here in my house?" I questioned. It slightly freaked me out to find out that someone stalked you to your house.

He looked around the room nervously, before giving me an answer, "I bought you back from the hospital and stayed the night in case you needed help." He gave me a small smile to show that he cared.

My heart fluttered for a while but suddenly stopped at the thought of a hospital.

Why was I at a hospital?

Why was Josh there?

"Hospital?" I have him a confused look to tell him I had no idea what he was talking about.

"Oh yeah. You probably don't remember. You weren't feeling too well so I took you to the hospital."

That's when it clicked. A load of thoughts flashed in my mind before I managed to bring my voice to an audible volume. "Oh, I remember. But what happened?"

"Okay, from the beginning." He took a deep breath before he continued. "I was bored and thought I might come and see you, so I asked my mum if she knew where you lived but she kept going on about done woman named Martha. I still headed to the address my mum had given me. I knocked but no one opened. I decided to break in. Yes I know it's illegal but my brain wasn't working. Anyways I heard noises from upstairs and find you lying on the floor in your room. You wouldn't wake up so I called an ambulance and they took you to the hospital."

That's it. It was her. Did he know about why everything happened this way?
Did he know I was schizophrenic?

"What did the doctors say?" I needed to know hour much he knew about me.

His face suddenly paled at my question. "About that..." He trailed off while looking around at random things in the room to try and change the topic.

I gave him a pleading look to tell him to continue. "They told me your age and somethings about your parents," he stopped talking but soon continued.

"And that your schizophrenic." A regretting look was all over his face at the last sentence.
