Bad boy

Chaper 2:

My eyes went wide and I dropped my bag on the floor and ran towards her.
"What?, what happened?, when did this happen?, is she alright?" So many questions were flying out my mouth, panic filled my whole body, I was shaking and my eyesight started going blurry, while my mom just continued crying. "Mom!"

"T....the school called me s......saying she got hit by c........c.......car, and wasn't waking up, I had rushed her to the hospital and the doctors say she could be in a coma"

I stepped back at my mothers words "Sophie" I whispered, my baby sister the most happiest person in the family...was in a coma, I started feeling dizzy and couldn't stand anymore.

"I couldn't even take her to a private hospital" my mother sniffed

I wanted to run, run all the way to the hospital and see her right now, but seeing my mom like this I knew that would only make her feel worse. I needed to remain calm,  for her.."As long as she is gong to be alright, can we visit her, please...now"

"Of course, I just got home to get dressed, I'll be going back soon"

I waited at The door impatiently every second feeling as if an hour had passed.
The drive to the hospital was quiet, I was just thinking about my sister how she was, if she had any cuts and bruises or if the driver of the car had even stopped and apologized . I didn't ask her mother any of these questions because my mother had already looked like she had, had enough sadness for one day.

"Room 204, to your right " the receptionist had told me after I had asked where my sister was. "Thanks"
I turned to see my mother already walking in that direction and slowly followed.
Opening the door had sent shivers down my spine, I had been expecting the worst but when I saw my baby sister on the bed, I gave out a sigh of relief.
Sophie had just had a few bruises on her face and a small cut on her left cheek, which had been stitched, she also had a cast on her right arm, but looked calm and relaxed like she was just sleeping in her comfortable bed at home.

I felt relieved that Sophie did not look as bad, when I looked back my mother I  saw her sobbing on a chair next to her. I gave my mother a tight hug "It's going to alright mom"

"What if she never wakes up, or loses her memory if she does."

I gasped softy, "Mom don't say that", what if she really does never wakes up, I looked down at Sophie and then my mother, a single tear drop fell from my eye and I let another falland another, I could feel my nose filling up.
"No, there should at least be one person who stays positive" I shook my head, "That's not going to happen mom, she's going to be fine"

Thirty minutes had gone by, my mother had fallen asleep holding  Sophie's hand.

"Mum" I whispered as I shook her. "Mum, we need to go home"

"No" her mom mumbled back "You go, I'm staying with Soph", she said going back to sleep.

I kissed both my mother and sister on the cheek before leaving the room, I said what my mother would say every night before leaving our room, "You are my sun, moon and stars".
Closing the door quietly and turning around to walk to the waiting room, I bumped into something hard.

"Watch where you're going, idiot!", I heard an annoyed mans voice, which had sounded fimilar.
I looked up to be greeted by ocean blue coloured eyes.

"Sorry" I said looking down, so he wouldn't see me crying.
Turning on my heels and  started to walk away, calling Marissa seeing if she could pick me up.

"Sup, Nicky", Marissa answered on the third ring.

"Hi, uhm...could you pick me up please"

"What's wrong, wait where are you?"

"I'm at the hospital, I will explain later, will you be able to come?"

"Be there in 25 minutes".

I could hear movement in the background,"thanks", I replied before ending the call.

I waited outside, I felt like I needed to breathe, to get away from all the bad things right now and to make everything worse she still had to rehearse for the drama monologue tomorrow.

Standing out in the cold relaxed me and that's what I really needed, for someone to tell me that everything eill turn out alright, my baby sister will go back to bring a happy energetic child and my mom happy no matter the circumstances. I would try for the sake of my mother and sister I would try remain positive.

"This must be really bad" Marissa's voice said startling me. "You're standing outside a hospital crying"

I got into her car and pushed myself towards the window and stared out at the world, thinking of my mother consoling me in a tough situation, "Life is like a mirror, if you smile at it it will smile back at you", but smiling right now was one thing I couldn't do.
