A Broken Man (Part 3)
One Shot #27 (Cont.)
Maui's POV
I wake up in the hospital and find myself lying in an uncomfortable bed. My eyes examine my body. I look like hell. I'm so glad no one can see me right now, especially the paparazzi. That's the last group of people I need up my ass right now. I try to sit up several times, but my body won't allow me to move. The only part of my body I can move slightly is my arms, though even they won't move that much. A doctor comes in to stop me from trying again. "I wouldn't do that if I were you." "Doctor, tell me, what happened to me in the accident?" He sighs. "Well first of all, the driver of the other car was drunk. Second of all, you have very extensive injuries. Because of the impact of the crash, you have paralysis."
A shaky breath escapes from me. "Are you telling me I'm never going to be able to wrestle again?" He nods solemnly. "In addition, you won't ever to be able to walk again and you'll have very limited body movement from the waist down." I'm not a man who cries often, but I break down, not caring who sees me. This doctor just told me that I'm going to be stuck in a wheelchair for all my days. My career is now flushed down the toilet and the paparazzi are going to have a field day with me. I'm going to be a joke. Instead of viewing me in admiration, people will simply stare at me in pity. I'd rather die than have a sea full of fans treat me as the broken man I now am. That's not fair to them and it's certainly not fair to me.
"Doctor, thanks for being honest with me. I know I need stitches for all my cuts, but I was wondering if that could wait a little while. I need a bit of time to myself." He nods. "I understand Maui. I'll give you some alone time. I'll tell the nurses to leave you be. I know this a lot to process." He leaves the room quietly, looking at me with the exact pity stare that everyone will be giving me soon enough. I continue to cry like a baby. When I'm all cried out, I simply stare at the ceiling in defeat. I give up. My life is over now. I'm done trying. I'm done living.
Hope that you guys liked this part of this one shot! It's going to be one of my longer ones. I don't know how many parts exactly, but it will be several. Normally, I'd put a smiley face at the end of my remarks, but I'm not feeling tonight. I'm having a really rough night. Sorry everyone. I love you guys though <3 -Mary
