"Your lung," Said the nurse who walked into the room.

"Yay," I said sarcastically.

"What happened?"Ivy asked.

The nurse went to speak. I cut her off.

"It collapsed again." I sighed.

She nodded.

Back when I was in grade 8, I had these really sharp pains in my upper right rib. They went away, but they'd come back every so often. Well, at our graduation dance, I passed out. I had a thingy called 'spontaneous pneumothorax', which was just a surprise partial lung collapsion. And apparently, it happened again.

"Do I have to have surgery again?" I asked.

The nurse looked at me funny.

"You already did," She said.

"Oh," I replied.

That makes things easier.

"You don't remember?" The nurse asked.

I thought about it.

"No," I answered.

Ivy, Lucy, Bennett and Cody looked at me weirdly.

"All I remember was them making me take a bunch of painkillers."I shrugged.

"That would be it." The nurse said.

"Can I have my jello now?" I asked Cody.

"Oh, yeah sorry," He replied, handing it to me.

I dug in. My favourites! Both the raspberries!

"Cody, can I talk to you in the hall for a sec?" Bennett asked.

"Umm sure," He said.

They excused themselves and closed the door.

"Help me," I said to Lucy and Ivy, who helped me get up and sit in the chair by the door.

"Grab some popcorn. Things are about to get interesting!"
