Daisy p.o.v
I wake up with the sun shine in my face and the smell of breakfast. I get up and stretch my back and get out of bed. I walk into the kitchen where Ms.Garcia is cooking pancakes and eggs. She sees me and smiled happily at me.
"Why hello dear, have a nice night"? She says while flipping a pancake
I nod and my mind goes to my brother. I wonder how he's doing. I got up and put on my clothes and make up my bed. Ms.Garcia sees me and stops me.
"Where are you going dear? Don't you want breakfast?" She asks me
"Oh, i don't want to be a burden. ill jus-"
"No, sit down, and eat. There's plenty to go around". She smiled at me and led me back to the table chair.
She sits down in front of me a plate of pancakes and eggs. She passes the syrup to me and i pour it all over my pancakes. I got some butter and spread it all over my pancakes then dug in. I quickly filled my mouth and drunk down my milk. I said thank-you and bye to ms.Garcia.
I left back to the hospital to see my brother. I asked for his name and then they said he's in room 205. i got on the elevator and walked down the row of doors. 198..200..202..204...here it is.
I walked inside and saw half his body in gauze and bandages. He was up and looking at the ceiling. I walked in and walked closer to him. He turned towards me and an emotion i couldn't read was in his eyes.
"Hey Nat". I said quietly
" Could u give me that glass of water". He sounded horse and dry
I quickly grabbed the water and gave it to him. He drunk it in less than a minute, slightly choking. He cleared his throat and sat up
"So what happened? Why am i in here"? He suddenly asked in more of a demand than a question
" You don't remember? Not a thing"? I asked quietly
" If i remembered what happened, why would i ask what happened"? He said in a quite mean voice
"Sorry. But there was a fire. I don't know how it happened and when. All i know is, i was walking home from school and there were fire trucks and police men everywhere. By the time i actually reached the front door, you were being rushed out to the ambulance''. it all rushed out as i replay the incident
"Well, all i remember is that i was trying to light a smoke then that was it". He said wondering
"You started smoking again? I thought u quieted".I said shocked
"I started again. So what. You shouldn't care if i smoke or not. I pay the bills". He said and his voice slightly going louder as he spoke.
I was fed up honestly. I don't understand why he insist on treating me like a piece of shit.
"You know what! I DO care about you. I DO care about what you do. What I DON'T care for is your constant disrespect toward me. So fine. If your going to keep acting like a baby and not appreciate your only living blood and sibling, then this'll be my last time visiting you" I said with anger and hurt inside me
After getting out what I had to say, I walked out. Debating if I should go back or not, I kept walking. I can't stand here and keep taking this. I am a good person.
Tears rolled down my face as i walked back to Ms.Garcia house and I knocked on the door again and waited for her to open the door.
I needed to shower and sleep, its been a long day. Ms. Garcia opened the door and smiled.
"No need to knock deary. You could enter and exit as you please". She said as she openes the door then stepped aside so that i could enter.
"Do you have some spear clothes. I want to shower and sleep". i said quietly
"Yes, i went over today and got some of your clothes. you will be sleeping in the guest room. The kitchen is open, take whatever u please". she smiled and walked away
I smiled and left to shower. I ate some chicken Alfredo and happily fell asleep.
