"OH MY GOD! HUNTER PLEASE COME QUICK I NEED YOUR HELP YOUR FATHER IS NOT WAKING UP"  My mom shouted
That's all I can recall, all I can really remember my mom saying, but when I opened my eyes I looked around and found myself in an emergency room in the hospital. I get sick easily but it's the first time that I ever passed out, my mom was worried like crazy and my dad was talking to the doctor outside the room as for my brother I can tell he's exhausted because I can see him sleeping on a wooden chair that is not comfortable. I'm tired and I feel like throwing up and my mind is full of thoughts and I'm just stressed out.
*Dad comes in after talking to the doctor*
"Oh thank god you're awake! How are you now?!" He said as if he was carrying a heavy weight that has been lifted up from him
I smiled and said " Yeah, I'm okay I guess"
"Oh I got so worried, you look very pale!"
"I'm exhausted"
"I am going to get you some orange juice from the cafeteria and come back, would you like anything else?"
"No no thanks dad, love you"
"Love you too," he said and left the room.
I heard a phone notification sound and  looked beside me , on the right was my phone , I reached out for it to look at the text messages that I've received, I rubbed my eyes then started reading.
"3 missed calls from an unknown number, and a voice note? As well as a message, I wonder who it is," I said to myself.
I played the voice note.
"Well first of all It's Savannah and Lily, the two girls who passed the notes to you. You are so dramatic oh my god! *giggles* So she literally skips school because of some words we said and we were even doing her a favor of being honest. Don't think that you are so nice because everyone hates you honey, do us all a huge favor and just kill yourself. Literally just go die and burry your personality too. YOU ARE UGLY, WORTHLESS, AND SKINNY *laughs* Stick legs," Im shook! I was looking at the phone not so clearly, my eyes loaded with tears, I locked my phone and covered my face with the hospitals blanket, I felt like rocks were sticking out in my throat and my head started aching even more. I then felt a hand placed on my shoulder, I removed the blanket and saw hunter.
"Hey," he said
I sniffed "Hi," and put on a fake smile
"Can you please pass me your phone?"
"Uh, why?"
"I can't seem to find my phone I'll just call my phone and look for it"
"Yeah ok here you go"
He took my phone and went out the room searching for it, well at least that's what I think he was doing. I wanted to tell someone about my feelings but I'm alone and I just want to let all my emotions out and at some point I wanted to get rid of my heart to stop feeling, stop everything that's going on, to stop caring. I just wish so much but these wishes are somewhat unrealistic that it's a waste of my time just wishing and wishing that things would or could happen at some point in my life.
*20 minutes later*
Hunter came in , the look on his face made me worry, he looked angry.
"WHAT IS WRONG WITH THOSE HEARTLESS PEOPLE, GOD!" He said kicking the chair. Hunter is overprotective and when he gets angry it's kind of out of control.
"Are you okay hunter?"
"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME!" He said with his hands over his head
"I'm fine"
"YOUR'E FINE? YOU ARE IN AN EMERGENCY ROOM, YOUR TEMPERATURE IS REALLY HIGH, YOU ARE DEPRESSED AND ABOVE ALL THAT YOU SAY THAT YOU ARE FINE, YOU KNOW THAT I WON'T LET ANYTHING HAPPEN TO YOU, WHY DIDN'T YOU AT LEAST TELL ME MEREDITH?"
"I'm sorry... I couldn't"
* phone starts ringing *
"Give it to me please," I said
"No no, you're not answering"
"Neither are you"
"Fine but you're not going to pick up the phone"
"Just give it to me!" I said
*nurse comes in*
"Hi, how are you now?"
"I'm ok"
"The doctor told me that I should take some blood tests and after that we will put another dosage of IV and you must rest okay sweetheart?,"
"Yeah okay"
*she closes the door*
"I can't believe that my own sister is getting bullied and I can't believe that she isn't telling me anything about it, I'm really disappointed"
"IM SORRY!" I said crying, "can you just leave me alone! I'm already going through so much and you are expecting me to tell you every single detail, it hurts just thinking about it, please stop making me feel bad!"
"Hey hey I didn't mean it in that way you know I'm overprotective, I'll leave and you rest," he covered my dead cold legs with a blanket then left the room.
I looked around for my phone and called the number.
"Oh hey, why you so scared? I've been calling for hours worthless. skinny. ugly human. Or are you even a human? *laughs*"
"I'm sick can you just leave me alone please"
"Aww are you going to cry? You should, wait wait I'll give you a better idea, how about kill yourself, that'd be absolutely great! Everyone would be happier without you anyways"
"Please stop"
"Ugly," she said
I closed the phone call, hurt, lost, deceived, I can't even explain how I feel. I closed my eyes then I heard the handle of the door wobbling.
*My family and the doctor comes in*
Doctor:" Hi Meredith..."
Me: "Hi, what's going on?"
Doctor: "It really breaks my heart to say this,"
Me:" to say what???"
*Mom tears up*
Doctor: "I'm sorry to say this, i really am, it hurts me to say this, you stay brave always. It really hurts me to say this but you're  diagnosed with..."
Me: "With what?????"
