In Between

Hospital Visit

"Hi it's Dr.Shane, I'm calling about your mom." My heart sank to my stomach.

"Ye- yes? What about her"

"She is in the hospital right now, and I was just calling you to let you know that we're checking how she's doing. She will be staying here for a couple of days." He informs me.

"Okay, thank you for letting me know." I say.

"No problem, have a good day." He says. I wish him a good day as well. I finish gathering my stuff for my next class. As I start walking, I bump into someone. I grip my books so they don't fall. I look up to see it's Justin.

Great.

"So when are we gonna do this project thing?" He smirks. I just simply shrug my shoulders and try to walk past him. He grabbed a hold of my wrist and spun me around so I would be facing him.

"Don't walk away from me." He said looking into my eyes, gripping my waist now

"Let me go. Now." I said placing my hand on his chest trying to push myself off. Woah, he's toned. Wait no, stop-- Alex what are you thinking? You hate him.

He slightly let go of my waist and I took the chance to leave, and I did. I quickly walked to my car, I opened the door and just sat there. Was that rude of me? No of course not. I was brought out of my thoughts when my phone rang. I answered without looking at the caller ID

"Hello?"

"Alex, where are you? " It was Aubrey.

"I'm sitting in my car, why?

" Maybe because youre gonna be late for class, are you okay?"

"Yeah I'm fine, I'll be right there." I hung up and got out of my car and started walking to math. I noticed that Justin was still standing by my locker; but on his phone. I walked upstairs to Math, I noticed that Aubrey was outside the classroom waiting. I slightly smiled at her and walked in class and took a seat.

After school- At home

"Mom is in the hospital, wanna come or do you want to stay here? " I ask Aubrey grabbing my purse off the table along with my keys.

" I would love too but I was actually heading over to Dylan's right now, so we can start on our project. Tell me what happens okay?" She stated, walking over to me, embracing me in a hug and placing a light kiss on my head. She always did this when she knew I needed comfort.

"Okay, I'll see you later tonight then. Be safe okay?" I looked up at her

"I will." She said with a smile on her face. I began walking out to my car when there's a knock on the front door. Who could it be?

I answered it and in my doorway is Justin. I furrowed my brows.

"What are you doing here and how did you know where I lived?" I ask brushing past him making my way to my car.

"I thought we could work on our project and I have my ways." He said with that stupid smirk on his face

"First of all, creep and second I can't, I have to go." I stated, opening my car door and sitting inside

"Where are you going?" He asked

"It doesn't really concern you now does it?" I smirked putting my key in the ignition and starting the car. Right as he was going to say something I closed my door and backed out of my drive way. I just left him there, was that rude? I guess it was, I don't care.

After fifteen of driving and listening to the radio I had finally arrived to the hospital. I grabbed my purse and keys and made my way inside. I went to the front the desk.

"Hi miss, what can I do for you?" A blonde woman in maybe her mid thirties asked me turning her attention from the computer screen too me

"Hi, I'm here to visit my mom."

"What's her name?" She asked looking at the computer once more.

"Adrianna Rose" I stated. The woman started typing on her computer

"Ah yes, and you are?" She looked up at me

"Her daughter, Alexandra Rose." She nodded and asked for an identification, I pulled out my drivers license and handed it to her.

"Okay, you're good too go, just take this visitor's pass here, your mother is in room 213 A." She handed me a visitor's pass. I took it from her and gave her a small smile before walking away.

I walked to the elevator and pushed the button to go to the second floor. The doors opened and I made my way to the room. I knock on the door and I here someone order to come in; I do as I am told. I walk in and see a nurse standing next to my mom. I walk over to where she is.

"I'll leave you two alone, push the button on the remote if you need anything." A nurse about 5 feet tall with light brown hair looked at my mom and gave her a smile. She turned on her heel and walked out the door.

"Mom. Estas bien?(Are you okay) what happened?" I asked grabbing her hand.

"I was sitting on the couch and my nose started bleeding and I noticed red spots on my skin so I came here and had them check what's wrong." She said looking down. I hate seeing her like this, it kills me. She started Chemo, causing her to lose her hair

"What did they say?" Rubbing my thumb against her knuckle

"It's just part of the cancer and that I'll be here for another day." She gave me a reassuring smile. I leaned in to give her a kiss on her forehead.

"Are you hungry? Do you want me to get you anything from the cafeteria or somewhere else?" I asked

"No I'm fine, go home and get some rest okay? You have school tomorrow." She said, I could careless about school.

"Okay, are you sure you're going to be fine?" I ask looking into her caramel eyes

"Sí mija (Yes daughter)" she brings my hand up to get lips and plants a kiss on it. I embrace her in a hug, I pull away and give her another kiss this time on her temple. I get up but I feel her slightly pull my hand. "Drive safe please."

I nodded and started walking away, it hurts too see her in a hospital bed. The last time I saw her laying in one was two years ago when my dad had died. She was laying down next to his lifeless body, sobbing into his chest. I still remember it clear as day.

I walked out of the hospital and made it to my car. I'm hungry. I'm gonna see what Aubrey wants, the phone rings twice before she picks up

"Hey lex, what's up?"

"Do you want me to bring something home to eat?"

"Yeah, sure I'm starving"

"Okay, pizza or in-n-out?"

"In-n-out please!" She chuckles, I agreed and hung up. I make my way to get the food, once I get it I go home and we eat. We make small talk, I tell her about what happend to my mom and how she says that everything is going to be okay. We finish our food, I go up to my room, finish homework and get ready for bed. Once I'm done getting ready, I go lay down and start to think. I hope she's okay. I can't lose her, I already lost dad. I then drifted off to a deep sleep.
