Hey, this is a true story about my dad that happend in november last year, a few details are different but most is completely true. I will enter it in chapters. Enjoy :)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I turn my head slightly to the right to see the time written in bright green on my clock, all I can think is “woo! Still another 2 hours before I have to wake up, go to school and do my stupid English exam.” I sink back into a deep sleep, exploring the impossible in my crazy dreams.
Just like every other morning my door opens suddenly, mum rushes in but this time its different “wake up Laney, dad’s been in an accident” “is he okay?” I ask barely awake “I don’t know” mum replied just as confused and scared as me.
Who would have thought that those three words could have taken the English exam and put it right up the top of good things?
I get up and rush out onto the deck where mum and Tyler are calling frantically trying to find out what is going on. I sit there anxiously waiting for mum to finish on the phone and tell us what has happened and answer ever other possible question running through my head at this very point in time.
“Someone hit him on his motorbike and he has lower body injuries” mum tells us a lot calmer than is even possible for her.
Lower body injuries? Like paralyzed? Never walk again? So many questions are going through my head when a rush of emotions hits me straight, I run into the kitchen, place my head on the bench and let the tears flow. I have never cried this much or with this much emotion for a long time and I didn’t even know what I was crying about, I was just crying but it felt right, like I should have been crying. Mum walks in and without saying any words grabs hold of me and hugs me until I’m suddenly all right.
“Tyler and me are going over to the hospital now, are you coming?” mum said in a panicky, rushing voice “no” I replied, I don’t know why I didn’t want to. I was picturing him lying there on a bed with bloody everywhere and I couldn’t make myself see him like that. So I simply said no.
Mum woke jakes girlfriend Georgia up to stay with me. She looked just as worried as me. But she assured me that everything was going to be alright and that her dad has been in a bike accident before and she understands how scary it is. It made me feel a little better but didn’t really change anything.
