I woke up heavily sedated, meaning I had blurred visions and I felt no pain. I felt the pressure but no pain.
The beeping noise of the machine was giving me a real headache.
I noticed someone sitting in the corner in a chair.
" Nurse she's awake " he yelled out the room door.
The nurse rushed in and started checking my vitals and making sure I was fine.
Sure as hell I didn't feel fine.
" she's fine she just needs to stay hydrated and get a lot of rest, but you can take her she's heavily sedated so be careful "
" now sir unless you are her spouse or family you can not take her what's your relationship? "
Took him a minute to answer but he lied and told them I was his lady. I wanted to laugh but couldn't.
I was drowsy, drifting off to sleep.
" okay thanks ma'am " the man said.
I could see he was tall , light skinned with tattoos everywhere and that's about it.
" we have already did the release forms and she's ready to go "
" okay " he said again.
I could tell he was ready to get out of here
My throat was so dry like I haven't drunken anything in days. I managed to get out a few words.
" who ever you are, I'm thirsty "
" I'm sorry I will introduce myself when I get you home feeling better. Right now you probably won't remember, but I'll get you some water"
He was back quicker than he left with the water and also a wheel chair.
" come on we have to get you up " he said handing me the water bottle.
I slowly sat up and drank some water out the bottle.
Standing up I fell right to the floor I was weak.
His arm was around my body helping me get up just as quick as I fell.
" come on I'll help you "
" I'm not sure I'm comfortable with being around you, I barely know you"
" let's just say Ms.Karlae , I was sent to you by God, something told me to visit my moms yesterday "
I was in the wheelchair by now.. " so you trying to say your my guardian or something " I could always find humor in anything.
He rolled me out of the room and I was still sleepy as ever.
I was put into the passenger seat of the same car I was in the back seat of yesterday.
The cold air felt good blowing on me as he drove me home.
" you know where I stay right ? "
" of course I do " he replied.
We had arrived at my house.
" my purse ? Where is it? " I had just thought about it.
" In the backseat, I'm telling you, you don't have nothing to worry about "
" well I guess I can trust you a little bit since you did save my life and all "
" your stubborn, but I don't mind trying "
" trying what ? "
He just looked over at me and didn't answer.
" to get to know you "
He had me feeling a little scared for a minute.
I had forgotten We'd pulled up to my house .
" well thank you for this " I leaned over and pecked him on the cheek. I grabbed my bag out the back seat.
I opened the car door. Once the sun hit me I felt like throwing up. I tried to walk again but failed.
Mystery man P.o.v
" come on I got you " I was picking this woman up bridal style.
I was a good man, cause I had a sister of my own. I don't know what I would've done if I seen her being handled the way this woman was last night.
" which one's the key ?" I asked.
" The red one " she said.
I unlocked the door and went in.. Still holding her.
" it's Dwayne " I said it out of the blue. Laying her down on her sofa.
"What "
" my name is Dwayne Mckell " my mama has stayed next door since forever. I recently moved down here from Philadelphia with my daughter"
" I'm Karlae Lotus and this is mi Casa "
" I already knew that , tell me something I don't know "
" well I'm from the Islands "
" keep it coming "
" I'm 21 and my mother past away when I was 16 from breast cancer "
" I'm sorry to hear that "
" yeah it's fine I've been coping "
she stared at me for a minute and i felt some type of way so i decided to make the situation less awkward by leaving.
" well let me get to my daughter" he was sitting up.
" thanks for all you've done " I stood up finally hugging him.
" Alright bye now"
excuse my mistakes 💋
