~chapter 12~
Beep. Beep.
I wake up and hear the sound of a monitor.
I realize I'm in a hospital and search around the room.
I felt sore and felt dizzy but I ignored that feeling.
I lift myself up but couldn't feel.
I tried pulling myself off the bed but I couldn't.
I began to panick. What's wrong?
"Help! Help!" I began to scream. Tears rolled down my face while I forced myself to get out.
Nurses run in and walk over to me.
"What happened?" One of the nurses asked me.
"I CANT FEEL MY LEGS!" I tell her. I felt my breaths start to shorten.
"Honey, you are temporally paralyzed in your legs." She tells me.
I looked forward and stared at the wall blankly. Tears broke out but I stood there in shock.
It's déjà vu. I had a flashback when I was 9.
I sat there on the side of my grandpa'a bed waiting for him to wake up.
His eyes opened and I watched him. He looked around and saw me. He grabbed my hand and said "Help me get out of here, Madeline.".
I listened to him and pulled him up but he stood there. He started to panic and screamed.
I was terrified and scared. Life couldn't explain my terror.
Nurses ran in to help him.
His legs were paralyzed, forever.
I snapped myself back to the present and saw no nurses. I was laid back as if I just woke up.
I pull myself up and touch my legs. I couldn't feel them.
I flashed back when I was next to my grandpa on his bed. But this time I was 16 and he was weaker.
I watched him as he woke up and searched for me.
I grin at him and he holds my hand.
"I love you, Madeline. I always will. You are my life's devotion and my perfect angel. You will become greater and wiser than I was and will ever be. I love yo-" his eyes close and his hand grip weakens. I watched him and his last breath.
I wake up and find Shawn next to my hospital bed.
"I heard what happened." He says.
I frown and nod.
I uncover myself and look down at my legs.
"I love you too, grandpa."
