❝It was supposed to be nothing, really. But at some point it b...
"You don't need to worry about that. I'm very considerate of my hygiene. Thank you."
"So...I was wondering where do you live?"
"Pffftt Hahahahahahah."
"What?"
"Hahahahaha."
"Stop with the fake laugh. What happened?"
"Hahah-"
"Nina I swear to God-"
"NINA?!"
"Well, Nina starts with a N. I'm guessing your name isn't Nina then."
"Nahh. There is 'O' after N, not an I."
"Nona then?"
"I should have never told you."
"Where do you live?"
"I didn't tell you my name. What makes you think I will tell you my adress, you creepy ass stalker."
"Hey! I'm not creepy or an ass or a stalker."
" Yeah yeah whatever."
"Any hints?"
"Umm. There is a hospital across my apartment building."
"Hospital?"
"Yeah that's what I said."
"What's the name?"
"The City Hospi- OH SHIT!!"
"The City Hospital?? It's only 30 minutes from where I live."
"How can you be so precise?"
"I have been there."
"Why...?"
"My mother's best friend. She and her husband got in a car accident last year. I went their with my mother to visit them in that hospital."
"Did they....did they survived..?"
"Unfortunately, No. It was pretty serious. They also had a daughter."
"What was her name?"
"I am not good at remembering names. I don't know if I even saw her."
"It must be so to-tough for her.."
"I know. Losing someone as close must be-'
"Hello? Are you there?"
"Shouldn't have opened this topic..."
Tears formed in her eyes, as she tired to keep her eyes open. She was never one of the week ones, but times like that made her question her courage. She didn't know how long could she survive in those four walls. Making it hard for her to breathe everytime she struggled.
Whenever she thought she was over it, the memories of the past returned to haunt her. She closed her eyes, letting her tears to freely fall down atleast. Every morning she promised her self to be strong and everything came crashing down by the end of the night. That was her life.
He regretted talking about it. His mother always told him to not talk about it so lightly because some people were really sensitive to these issues. He thought he would talk to her for a longer time but his wishes went down the drain. He hoped she would pick up his call the next day.
