Knock Me Out

Chapter 44

After a few days of eating disgusting, but healthy green pap, I'm finally strong enough to go home.

I'm in the backseat of my mom's car. It's been a long time since I sat on her backseat.

I can see the brown roof and the white roof from a few blocks away.

The thought of my two homes being the biggest and highest in the neighborhood brings a smile to my face.

The house looks neat on the inside as always. I step through the small hallway that leads to the living room, as I look up at the chandelier.

Why does it feel like I've been away for much longer?

I touch the walls as I remember someone having my back against it while I was moaning his name.

"Surprise!"

My body freezes in shock at the crowd in front of me. The whole living room is decorated beautifully.

There's a big banner that says "Welcome Home Chaniëlle"

"Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!" That's all I manage to say as I hold back the tears of happiness that threaten to flow.

"Can you stick a 'thank you' between all that" Cordelia jokes and walks toward me.

"Thank you guys so much!... Oh my God!"

"I bet you're gonna say 'oh my God' again" says Cordelia.

"No, shut up! I think I'm in another coma. A good one this time... Oh my God!"

"I should've put some money on it" she jokes again and the crowd breaks into laughter.

I just don't know what else to say.
I get a lot of hugs and kisses everywhere I turn. I don't even get the chance to get a proper look at who hugs me.

There are so many people. I see the flash of a camera in the corner of my eye every now and then.

After a very long time I think most of my guests had their turn in hugging me.

There's a huge table covered with food... Or three large tables combined to one.

I walk toward the table and look for something to eat.

Dr Miles said I didn't have to entirely change my menus, I just have to stick to at least one healthy meal a day and at least an hour of meditation.

My jaw hurts from all the smiling I had to do since I got back. I open my mouth wide to ease some of the pain, but someone shoves a handful of fries into my mouth.

I turn around to look at Megan's laughing face.

"What the fuck Megan... Megan!!"

I pull her into tight hug. I haven't seen or spoken to her since the last day I went to school. Which was before I got into the hospital.
I push her away from me when I remember that she didn't come to see me in the hospital.

I fold my hands against my chest and look at her with an expression that says "I'm angry, but sad".

"I'm sorry Chan. I came there a few times, but I couldn't bear to see you in that bed anymore. It hurt to see you lie there almost lifeless, when the you I know is always confident and full of life. You scared the fuck out of me" she confesses,

"Oh Meg" I sigh and pull her back into a tight hug.

"I missed you Chan. Don't you ever scare me like that again. I was so mad at you. I felt so many different emotions at a time. I was scared I was going to lose you too. I cried every night praying for your ass. I got on my knees for the first time in years, just to pray for you. Not just so you'd wake up, but for you to be OK. I haven't had a reason to pray in years, cause I felt like I didn't have anything to lose. But I do have everything to lose. I'm just so happy right now that you're back, healthy as ever. I fucking missed you. Fuck! I even missed you telling me to shut up or pretending to listen while you don't understand a shit I'm saying. Jeez it feels like you've been gone for twenty years"

Megan sobs into my shirt soaking it with her tears. Her words let my own tears, which I was desperately holding back, roll over my cheeks.

My chin is on her head as we are still wrapped in each other's arms.

We stay like that for a moment, before she says "Seriously Chan! Your tears are getting my hair wet. What are you thinking?"

"Says the person who got my shirt soaked" I chuckle.

"Did not. You probably spilled your drink or something"

"Haha" I say in monotone. "The fuck are you wearing?"

I look at her clothing and shake my head, laughing.  She's wearing men's boxers, covered in hearts and flowers. They're a little too big for her, but they are certainly hers. Her T-shirt literally swallows her and it has a pink unicorn on the front.

"How about we go see what my mom has in her closet?" I suggest, feeling the excitement.

"Yeah, I'm down. Welcome back" she replies with a naughty grin.

She and I have gone into my mom's closet a few times. Not that she notices her clothes missing. She has tons.

She sometimes even compliments us on how good the clothes look on us, without knowing they're hers.

"But I'm starving. Let's eat some first" I say and we do just that.

After eating some random things from the table and getting a few more hugs, we head upstairs to my mom's room.

I open the door and step inside.

My eyes widen when I take in the scene in front of me.

My mother is standing in the middle of the room with a guy.... Kissing the hell out of each other.
Her hands around his neck and one of his around her waist as the other squeezes her arse.

I knew she was dating someone and I would've left immediately if I didn't know the person as well as I do. I wouldn't even think suspect him and my mom.

He's the last person that would pop into my mind as a possibility. I never expected this.

My mouth falls open and my eyes widen as I hear Megan's voice say "Oh"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

😷😹 Awkward!!

Who do you think the guy is?
I need some guesses.

P.S. I cried while writing the part where Megan pours her heart out to Chaniëlle. I had to take a break before I could continue writing. Bae❤ got worried thinking he did something wrong😂.

I did get some chocolate tho.
So I'm happy😋😝😇
