My Parents My Patients - DC Next Generation

Chapter Eleven

I woke up later that night,looking around,I remembered I was in the hospital. I glanced beside me and saw a cup of water and my phone sitting on the table. I leaned over and grabbed my phone,I sudden wave of pain going over my body,I remembered about the cuts on my shoulder,wrists and arm. I closed my eyes and gritted my teeth,the pain slowly went away,I opened my eyes and turned my phone on,as soon as it loaded up I freaked out,there were 20 missed calls from Amber,about 60 text messages from various people. I shook my head and unlocked the phone,going into messages.

I text back,going back and clicking Kelly's contact.

Hey
Olive answer me
Are we still going out tonight?
Please answer.
Olive,everyone's worried,you're not answering our texts.
Are you even alive??

I laughed,"Kelly. Always overrating."I said Bianca's.

Hey Olive
Pam asked me to remind you to tell Amber that she loves her.
Hey,sorry I almost forgot. You left your necklace in you office,would you like me to bring it to you?
Olive?
Please answer I'm worried about you.

I just went and opened Jessie's.

Hey Olive
I was wondering if you were okay.
I saw what happened at lunch today.
Please tell me you're okay.
One of my patients told me that you were injured,please tell me that's not true.
Olive?
Hello?
Are you dead?
Where are you?
I can't lose you too!

"I'll message her back in the morning."I muttered,opening Amber's texts.

Olive.
Francy.
How's work?
Who'd you get as patients?
Did ya get my mum again?
I hope you did I miss her.
Why aren't you answering my texts?
Are you okay?
I'm going to call the Asylum if you don't answer me.

Later....
Olive.
Answer your phone.
The asylum told me you had an incident.
I just want to know that you're alright.
Please,Quinny.
ANSWER MY CALLS!
They better not be hurting you!
Where are you?
Tell me now,I will get you out of there.
Why aren't you answering?

😞

I shook my head and opened Charlie's.

Get well soon
😇😇

I smile and open Adam's

Hey
I saw you being carried out by the medics.
Hope you get well soon.
We will all miss you here.
Care to talk about your problem with Quinton?

I just opened Ro's one.

Hey

I yawned,turning my phone off and putting back on the table,grabbing the cup of water and taking a sip. I put the cup up and laid back down closing my eyes. Memories hit me.

Flashback
I was four and playing outside in my front yard when some girls walked past. "Hey look,it's the clown baby."I sneered and the others laughed. I looked down at my feet,I turned my back to them,walking towards the house. I made my way to my room,going in and closing the door. I stumbled over to my mirror and looked at myself,I looked normal. I seemed normal,so why did they keep calling me a clown? I opened a draw and got something out.

The next day I was playing outside again when the girls walked past again,"Clown baby. Clown baby. Everyone wishes you would die baby. Nobody likes. Nobody cares. You're just a baby of two insane clowns."they sang. Tears welled in my eyes,"If nobody cares about me,then would you care if you caused an innocent child's death?"I yelled back at them,pulling a dagger out from behind my back,I held it to me leg,I sliced across it,screaming in pain,I remember seeing blood and the blacking out and waking up in hospital. I was discharged a few days later. I remember having so many presents after that,those girls left me alone after that.

Flashback End.

Why did that just come back to me now?
