The Game Of Trust

Chapter 2

Picture of Tanara in multimedia
***********

I slowly open my eyes and look around. It appears that I am in a hospital bed. I glance to the right and see a vase of flowers. I reach out my hand to grab the vase. There is a note that says From: Jacob. I smile and lay my head back down
I suddenly have a flashback of what happened. A tear drips down my cheek and onto my pillow. Why did this have to happen to her? She was my best friend. My unbilologocal sister. Snot runs down my nose and hot tears run down my face.
I close my eyes. I know she probably in heaven being on fleek like she always is.
*knock knock*
Someone knocks on my door and steps into the room.
I clear my tears and sniffle. I turn my head to see my ma and Jacob walking towards my bed.
"How you doing sweetie?" My mom says as she kisses my cheek.
"I'm good, I just wish I could see Tanara one more time."
She smiles at me and my brother comes and sits on the end of my bed.
"Well, I think you can. She is in the room next to this one, so I can go see if you can visit her."
I thank her and glance at Jacob as she walks out the door.
He seems to be softly crying.
"Boy what you crying for I thought you said men don't cry." I joke.
"I thought I was gone lose you. Me and ma would have probably been in a mental facility." He says softly.
I reach up and wipe his tears with my finger and smile.
"Jacob I'm fine, so don't worry about me." I say.
He sighs and puts his head down.

My ma steps back into the room with a small smile. "They say you can go visit her for 30 minutes."

I sigh and slowly get up. My bones ache and my head hurts, but I'm glad I can say some last words to my sister.

I walk into her room next door to see her laying down on a bed, expressionless. Tears begin to form again just seeing her laying there.
I walk over to her bed and sit down next to her.
She was so pretty, I was sometimes jelous of her.
I touched her face and hugged her. "I love you sister, and I always will."
My lips start to quiver as I talk.
"I'll see you when it's my time, I promise."
I continue to talk to her until the time is up.

When the time is up, I slowly get up and kiss her forehead.
I walk towards the door.
*groan*
I quickly spin around to see her opening her eyes slowly. I press the emergency button to send a nurse in. "Tanara! Can you hear me!?!" I say loudly.
She just looks at me and furrows her brows.

The nurse rushes to the room and looks at me.
"She made a noise and opened her eyes!" I say excitedly.

The nurse runs over to the bed and checks something with a lot of numbers on it. She then gets her stethoscope and listens to her heart beat.
There is a silence, and then she looks at me smiling with her thumb up.
The nurse walks up to me.
"Hi, are you this young lady's friend?"

"Yes, why?" I ask.

"Well, your friend is going to be okay. She just needs about a week to recover, so she will stay with us until then. You can come visit her whenever you'd like though."

I squel and hug the nurse. "Thanks so much!" I say to her before running to my best friends bed.
She opens her eyes and smiles at me.
"Hi, are you doing okay?" I whispered.
She nodded yes and closed her eyes.
I looked at the nurse worried and she said " It's okay, she just needs some rest. Why don't you come see her tommorow when she's rested?".
After some reassuring that she would be okay I finally left the hospital with my family.

*At Home*
We walk into the house and I head up the stairs to my room.
I take a hot bath and add my favorite bath bomb.
When I got our I brushed my teeth and threw on a t-shirt and shorts.

Before heading to bed I shouted "Goodnight" to my ma and Jacob downstairs.

I climbed into bed, laid my head down and drifted off to sleep.

*Tommorow*
I open my eyes and hop out of bed. I have to go see Tanara so that would be first on my list of things to do.
I put on a random hoodie some jeans and my white vans (back at it again with the white vans)
And put my hair up in a messy bun.

I leave my room and go down the hall to Jacob's room.
I quietly open his door and peek inside. He seems to be focusing something on his laptop.
I step inside and he looks at me.
"What's up." He says.
"I ain't mean to bother you but I need you to drop me off at the hospital so I can see Tanara." I whisper, because Ma is still sleep.

"Aight, but we ain't staying long, got it?"

"Yeah okay now let's go before Ma wakes up on the wrong side of the bed again." I say.

He turns his laptop screen stands up.
We both leave the house in a hurry to get to the hospital.

We step out the car and head into the waiting room of the hosptial.
I'm anxious but excited at the same time.
The lady at the desk looks at us. "How can I help you?" She says.
"Were here to see Tanara Danielle." I reply.
"Okay right this way." She leaves her desks and walks towards a halway.
I was shocked that she just let us go into her room without us even telling her our name, getting our I.D. But I didn't really care, I was just excited to see my best friend.
