Hard Life

Road Trip. Mya's Story part 1

It was summer, the worst one in my life and this is how it all began...
"Hey Mom,can I borrow the car?" Angela said pleading .
"Sure honey, the grey truck not the mustang," Mom said.
"Ok mom" whining Angela said, and grabbed the keys off the holder and left to meet her friends at the movies.
"Hey Mooom, can I borrow the caaaaar" I asked mischievously.
"Mya your 13 and even if you were old enough Angela took the truck and you know only me and your dad are the only ones I would let drive it," Mom said.
" we are going to go see him today right?" I said
"Mya, your dad is having knee surgery, of course we are going to see him, we will go up to the hospital in few hours," she said.
"Ok I'll be in my room if you need me"
I said.
"Ok" she said and I walked down the hall and into my bedroom. I watched Netflix for a half an hour then read, and I guess I lost track of time because next thing I knew I wizzed through 125 pages.
"MYA," yelled mom from the living room.
"WHAT?" I asked/yelled back.
She peeked her head through my door.
" it's time to visit your dad before his surgery come on"she said.

We got to the hospital and in the waiting room.
"Hello? Are you with Jeff Peterson?" A doctor said walking up to me and mom
"Yes, I am Sidney and this is my daughter Mya,"
"Nice to meet you, Jeff is ready for surgery you can come see him," the doctor said. And we followed him to the hospital room where my dad was lying in bed with cords hooked up to him.
"Hey squirt," my dad said.
"Hey dad, how are you?" I asked.
"Little nervous, " then he let out a short laugh.
"So what are they going to do to you Jeff" Mom asks.
"Well they cut in right here under my knee and-" my dad was cutting off by a doctor rushing in to the room .
"I'm so sorry Mr.Jeff," he was talking so fast I could barely under stand him. "We have to resign the surgery for later this week we need this room for an emergency ," he was out of breath and huffing, his face read scared."a car crash it was horrible! I'm so sorry but we really need this room," he finished.
"What????? Who was it???" My mom said.
"Honey calm down," my dad said, unaware of Angela borrow the Truck to go to the movies.
"Not sure, it was a grey truck," the doctor said.
"No, not Angela" I wipers under my breath. My mom and dad looked at me in fear of what I just said. Another doctor came in to the room.
"Come on Howard" said the new doctor to the one who was already in here named Howard aperantly.
"Yes Mrs.Yang," Howard said and he unhooked my dad and pulled him from the room.
