Story

I was heading towards the same hospital room, I went for the past 7 years. It belonged to my friend who has spend all his life in that hospital room.

I met him when i was 10 years old. My class was taken in a hospital to take care of the patients. I generally hated the idea after I came to know about it. I was assigned with a boy, same age as me. He was affected with a disease since birth. Luckily he survived but he had a fragile body. His parents died when he was 5 leaving him with great wealth but no love.

Flash Back*

"Everyone...........Follow the nurse to meet the patient you have to take care of..." Miss brooks shouted towards her annoying students.

"This stinks..." I whispered-screamed to my friend, Rose."Let go and explore this stinky place.."She gave an opinion. "Miss Abby......There will be no exploring while i am around." My teacher was standing right behind us.

With a Bored expression, I said goodbye to my friend and followed the nurse.

'I won't be staying here ....' I thought while entering my patient's room.

"Hello Evan.......Look I brought you a friend.."The nurse pushed me towards the patient's bed. "hey..."I greeted him with a fake smile. After a while the nurse left us alone.

"So......What's your name?" He asked me in an annoyed tone. "My name's Abby..."I mumbled. "Go switch on the TV....And Don't let them suspect a thing..."He whispered to me while leaning forward.

"Suspect.......?!?" I asked him confusingly. "The camera man...." He pointed towards the hidden camera on the corner of the room. "Who's observing you ?" I questioned him while switching on the TV.

"My lame old aunt and the creepy doctor......."He answered me back in an angry tone. "That's harsh.." I commented. "And lame..."He chuckled. Suddenly he started to cough really badly.

"R u ok?" I got up and rubbed his back. "Y-Yeah.....just call Helen, S-She will know what to do..."He spoke after calming down a little. "How do I do that..?" He just pointed towards a bell. I pressed it quickly. A few seconds later a women In a white dress appeared.

She was holding a tray full of pills and injections. She had wavy hair and dark brown eyes. She had a sad expression on her face and was looking really worried about Evan.

"Is he ok, miss?" I asked her in an angelic voice. "He's just fine but he shouldn't talk very much....." Her eyes twinkled as she told me about Evan. There was a warm feeling about her.

She gave Evan some pills and went back. After that We spend the whole day watching TV because he wasn't allowed to talk.

I promised him that i would meet him every weekand for the rest of my life and I became his first friend.

Flashback Ended*

I entered the room and saw Evan in the same bored expression. "What's up?" I asked him while putting my bag on his bad. Right now we both were 17. It was a miracle that Evan survied that long but he had to endure much pain. Helen was the only one who cared about Evan in the hospital. The others thought of him as a lifeless corpse.

"Nuthin............They won't let me out in the garden now-a-days.....Its getting boring."The only placed Evan had seen since he was little was this small hospital room and the garden beside it.
