My Moment To Live

Chapter 19 - Grandad...?

Can you see amigos I changed the profile photo of my story. The first one was just budget, hopefully this one attracts more people to read my book. Hopefully you like it.

              Rochelle's POV

How did I get on the beach? When did I even change into a bikini? But may I say... I look mighty fine. I don't even remember buying it. But it has a nice leopard print pattern and has matching bottoms to go along with it. I just thought since I am hear why don't I enjoy it.

I ran into the sea and it was very, very cold. It sent shivers up my spine. But as I stayed in there for a minute or so, it actually became quite comforting. I just splashed around on my own. It just then came to my mind that there was no one around. That was strange, usually on sunny days you would see alot of people everywhere. But oh! well less crowding for me was better. I always enjoyed being on my own.

"Rochelle, Rochelle, Rocky...". I heard someone call a name repeatedly and I wondered who it was. I looked all around then saw someone in the distance. I ignored it, I didn't hear properly so it was most likely not me. But when I heard a name being called again, I wad sure it was mine. I turned around again so quickly I could have given myself whiplash. Now the person was right in my face, it gave me such a shock I dropped on my bottom. The face was familiar, they stretched out there hand to help me up.

               Cameron's POV

We had been waiting inside to see if any improvement had happened on Rochelle's condition. Immediatly, after it happened she was rushed into hospital and has been having test after test. The Doctor said someone that has just had an operation it is not uncommom for this to happen. He said the most likely cause was stress. Which made me feel worse than I did? It was all my fault that she's like this.

Then, she spoke "Grandad...". She kept on repeating his name. That is never a good sign. I am a movie fanatic; I have watched almost every action, zombie and rom-com movie in the world. ( Don't mention the rom-com to anyone ). I was sure Rocky's grandad was dead. So it was never a good sign that she was calling his name. Then she raised her hand, it was going higher and higher.

What would you do at this point? I did the only thing that made sense to me at the time. I shook her, violently. "Rochelle wake up, do not go towards him,". She didn't respond and everyone was silent. Then her machine started beeping. We had to stay in the corner of the room while the crash team came in and tried to stabalise her.

              Rochelle's POV

It was Grandad. He was trying to help me up. This is really strange, my Grandad was dead. Maybe the fall was making me see things. But it was like an automatic reaction, I was stretching out my hand towards him. Then it felt like someone slapped my face but when I looked around no one was there. Then the hands I was going to hold out my hand to. They felt so heavy, like they were being tied down by something. I closed my eyes to blink, opened them back up and I was not on the beach. My grandad was gone and I had lots of people I never knew surrounding me.

             Cameron's POV

She had her eyes open. I had released a breath that I never knew I was holding. She was awake but she was struggling, she had to get restrained. "You caused this". That is all that was going through my head. "You caused this". She looked so vunreable and weak. Rings under her eyes and her skin was pale. She had the complexion of a ghost. But we were asked to go outside because her dad had fainted... Her mum was crying so much, even my mum was crying as well. Seems as if I was the only composed one out of us all.

After, an hour or so we were allowed to come back in and see her because she was asleep. But we could go in one at a time. I decided to go last because I was proberbly the last person she would want to see right now. By the time I was coming inside she was still sleeping. But after five minutes, her eyes were twitching and she was waking up.

"Hey, Rocky how are you? Are you feeling better?". I said quietly because I was in as much shock as she was.

"Who are you? Do I know you?". She said so weakly I almost broke into tears.

Was she playing a practical joke because her humour was very weird yet I was one of the only people that understood her humour. But I don't think she was joking because she pressed the big red button on the side of the bed. The one you press, if you are ever in distress.

Doctor. Chandra came back inside and told me to go out because she was distressed. But before I went out I heard the word "amnesia". What was that? I never listened in lessons. In my old school I used to be the top boy. But when I came to this new school Rochelle was the head. That is why I did it... That is why I blackmailed and hurt her. But when I finally found out that she was a nice girl, when we clicked and found out we were so much alike I regretted doing it.

I was a horrible friend, a bad person. Now karma has come back around to bite me in the butt. Now she doesn't even remember me.....

Hopefully, you like it. I tried, editting and re-editted. And I actually updated on time. *Have a party for me*. I revealed alot. The book is not finished though.

And for those who do not know what amnesia is. Amnesia: A partial or total loss of memory.
