-Days pasted by in a blink of an eye all I could think about was what Mathew had told me about these "abilities" we have. I couldn't stop but think about that day and night.
-It was Saturday and like I promised my dad we would go to the movies to watch this special documentary about Muhamed Gandhi. It's been awhile since me and my dad have had quality father and son time, it wasn't because I didn't want to, the reason why it's hard for us to actually hangout with each other is because ... My dad had pancreas cancer ...It's been like that for about 2 years. During that time he's either been to the hospital to go through treatment or has been working non-stop. When I first found out about his condition 2 years ago I was scared to death knowing that my dad may pass away soon. But I decided to think the positive and hope the treatments are helping him.
- As me and my dad were driving to the movie theater he surprisedly asked me, " so son have you , you know have any luck with any girls lately? " I responded back nervously, " umm to tell you the truth dad I do have this one girl in mind... But I don't think...."
My dad responded back with a surprised face, " so you had sex with her yet ?"
I responded back with shock saying " No ! Dad come on you know me I'm better than that."
He said back laughing, " aw come on can't you take a joke, you've been way too tense lately you're always in your room and going out by yourself and what not , I just worry about you sometimes you know. "
I kinda thought he was right ever since that day at Garrett Mountain with those lights , the nightmares, the voices and the eye color change, I've been way too tense lately that I forgot about reality and the people around me.
I told dad, " I know dad but really I'm fine. "
He gave me one of those priceless smiles that made me feel happy. At that point I was debuting wether or not to tell him about what's happened with me lately. Then I decided to tell him ...
- " dad I have something to tell you .." I said shyly
- " what is it son you can tell me anything remember I love you very much and I'll have your back if anything no matter where I am." said dad with a small grin , I couldn't help but have a feeling something horrible was gonna happen but I just assumed it was the tension I was feeling about telling him about what happened.
- " dad ... I ... " just when I was about to tell him, I turned around to see headlights shining at us and the horns of a truck.. Everything happened so quickly .. All I heard was a loud crash of cars and then everything went black ...
- I woke up in a bed and everything was white at first I thought I died , but then I rubbed my eyes to find out that I was in the hospital. I had bandaids wrapped around my legs and my ribs , at that moment I didn't know what happened and oddly enough I didn't feel pain or anything really. I started to panic and get up, then I saw the nurse come rushing in and told me to lay down and so I did. I asked with a weak voice, " what happened what day is it what time is it, where's my dad ?"
- The nurse looked at me, as if she was thinking of a way to talk to me. I asked her the same question once more.. Then she told what had happened and ... Also told me that my dad had died in the crash...

- 2 months have passed by since my dad's death . My mom has been crying non stop and same goes for my little sister. Everything at my house was depressed and dark. I too was crying non stop knowing that the only man that I look up to whenever I needed advice was gone forever. During those months I didn't care about anything not even my some called " abilities" , and school. I knew the day after the incident I had to meet up with Mathew to talk about our
"Abilities" and what not but I couldn't cause I was in hospital .. Oddly enough I only spent 5 days at the hospital ,all my injuries were instantly recovered without any surgeries by those 5 days. Doctors called it a medical miracle knowing that I had broken my left leg, had 3 crushed ribs and some internal bleeding. I too was puzzled when I got out but the day I was leaving the hospital,  the nurse that was taking care of me told me that a girl has been coming in everyday to visit me while I was at the hospital. I asked her eagerly on who it was and what she told me surprised me in so many levels, she had told me that the girl's name was Kelly.
-The nurse said, " yes her name was Kelly she came in everyday always checking up on you and taking care of you while you were sleeping, she even stayed here all day with you one time."
- At that time I was shocked I couldn't believe that Kelly had actually come to visit me everyday , knowing that she even spent a whole day here with me...
-  At that same day, as I was heading home for the first time after the accident with my mom. When I got in the car with my mom she instantly started to hug tightly and began to cry on my shoulder ... Seeing my mother cry like that made me cry along with her .. We cried our hearts out .. Knowing that her one and only love was gone ...
- Once we got home everything was different .. The house felt more emptier and depressed. My mom told me that David and Mat had also visited me in the hospital with her and that they too were as worried as her and that I should let them know that I had returned home healthy and well. That made me feel a little better inside knowing that the people I cared about cared for me so much. That day the first person I thought of calling first was Kelly, I instantly knew she would be worried about how I was since she visited me at the hospital. I had this theory in my head and I asked myself, " maybe the reason why I was able to recover so fast is because Kelly visited me everyday while I was there, just like that one time my wounds healed quickly after that beating Jordan and his two dumbass friends did to me." Again at that time I thought it was just my imagination but I was horribly mistaken then. But I decided to call Kelly instead of just texting her, I wasn't shy or anything I wasn't really feeling any type of emotions at the moment. After a couple of rings Kelly answered the phone she immediately asked me in a panic, " oh my god Brian are you ok ? Are you still in the hospital ? I've been so worried about you" it sounded as if she was about to cry any second so then I quickly responded, " yea I'm fine now I just got home from the hospital just now, I just wanted to call you because the nurse told me you visited me everyday while I was there." When I had said that I just realized I was blushing till Kelly responded, " yea of course I heard that you were there because Mat had called me telling me what had happen , and the first thing I did was head over there to check up on you I was worried ... "
- I nervously responded, " uhh well thanks I really appreciate that a lot to be honest. "
- Then Kelly responded with a sad tone, " I heard what happened to your dad , I'm really sorry Brian I hope you're ok, while I was at the hospital with you, your mom had also came in and she was in tears and shock.. To be honest I cried with her ... But we were both worried .. She had given me a ride home once from the hospital she had asked me who I was I told her that I was a friend of yours from school and that I heard about your condition from Mat. From there , me and her had gotten to know each other a little bit. She appreciated that I had visited you and I told that I would visit you everyday till you got out to keep you company. When I told her that she had smile at me and told me that I was the first girl to actually do something like that for you ..."
- When Kelly had told me all that I was literally speechless I had no idea that my mom would've talked to her and that Kelly had actually cried for me ...
- Then Kelly said, " she asked for my number to keep in touch and she had actually invited me to have dinner at your house whenever you came back home from the hospital."
- I had dropped my phone on the floor .. In shock that my mom had invited my own crash to my own house to have dinner , just when I picked up the phone my mom knocked on my door and said " Brian dear , we're gonna have dinner and I invited that sweet young girl that visited you in the hospital everyday Kelly."
I didn't know how to react I didn't know wether I shouldn't even been happy and excited or nervous and lost in words ...
