Mars' POV

Fuck! My head is spinning like shit. Am so ferking drunk I can feel it. I need to get out of here.

I stood by the roadside waiting for any available taxi.
A black salon halted in front of me.

"Mars why the heck are you doing here all alone this late?"

What is that my dad? Naaah phahahaha!

I giggled at myself noticing am so stupid to think it was my dad.
"My today's super hero Sharm. Hi you wanna dance?"

What the f am I asking. Shut up shut up. You're so drunk. Control yourself.

I have a chit chat with my dumpy cloudy brain.
"Fuck you're so drunk. Chip in I'll drive you home."

I just followed in and sat silently beside him. Why shouldn't I? I mean didn't I need a taxi in the first place?!

I need to go get into my sweet bed. Sweetheart I really miss you.

~~~~~~~~~

My head. My head is fucking screaming. My legs are so weak.I can't move my hands. Everything is blur. Damn why are my eyes so heavy.
Wait I smell medicine.
Wait am I in!

I opened my eyes so quickly from the only horrible thought place that was ringing in my head. Damn am in hospital. Am not sick but why am I here? Where was I last night? What happened.

I start recalling bit by bit. Cumb home and Ash... Bar... Swalla... Left... Sharm.
Why am I not remembering the rest? What the heck did Sharm do that am here? Where's that son of a bitch? I sure hope he didn't rape me. Wait why am I so stressing myself with questions that aren't rhetoric.

"Girl you scared the hell out of me. What the f were you thinking?" Cumb asked immediately I woke up completely. Guess she was here all along.

"Umm what am I doing here in the first place? "

"You passed out and Sharm thought you were all along asleep in the car as he was driving you home. We had to rush you here plus your breaths were so distant I thought you were going to die."

"Ooh come on since when vampires die? Hahaha you're funny."

"I really hate you so much. Am glad they are to discharge you in some hours from now."

"Where's Sharm?" I asked knowing I had to thank him for everything.

"He left to buy us lunch."

Sharm has been my secret admirer since childhood so I don't trust myself around him especially when am so ass-off drunk.

"Can I have a moment with Mars only?"
The doctor interrupted us and Cumb and the nurses had to leave the room.

"Hi Mars, am Dr. Fharz Klerk and I have some serious talk to have with you."

Okay this is the moment you start analyzing all possible topics a doctor who has attended on you for only one night could want to have a serious talk with his patient. To inform me I have one week life span then die, or tell me some stupid teenage advices on drink responsibly or tell me he informed my parents. Shit I hope he didn't. My parents do freak out over small issues especially if it related to me. Their only child. That ain't good especially for their old age.

"Okay. Am listening Dr. "

"First before I start, I must say you're a very strong immune system and it's a very positive thing. Mars you have a very high stress and it's not good for a young person like you. You need to seek guidance on how to manage your life situations plus drinking too much keeps you at a high risk of contacting a stress related illness or even depression. Hope you take this matter with a lot of attention."

"Thanks Dr. I will take your advise with a lot of seriousness. Thank you again. "

He smiled and nodded before heading out of the room.

Wow this was so serious. Okay I really love my life and I have some goals I really want to accomplish maybe I should take doctor's advice.

"You're good to go dear. You can change to your clothes on that room."
The nurse attended on me for like an hour after the doctor left.

*****
I've been doing fine since from hospital. I have been reading some guidance in managing stress and sure has been helping me a bit to relax my mind.

The whole day has been grumpy since I've just been indoors just doing nothing actually. Seated by the sofa listening to the radio alone since Cumber took Ash for some check up guess she had fever.

Vacancy for a temporary position of a market manager at Snorve Organization. Folks hurry up send your letter of application to their email at www.snorveorganization.org and attach CV before chances get low.

The radio advertiser states and I just roll up my eyes. Same olds. Actually am starting to get bored with this sending mails now and then of the vacancies. I need something real like an interview where I get to face and show my abilities not sending them in a paper or mail which soever they rarely read all of them.

My phone vibrated in my Jean pocket and I moved to grab it. Dad. I clicked the green side.

"Hey honey."

"Hey dad."

"When are you coming to visit us? We really miss you dear."

"Honestly dad I dunno when. Been so worked up in searching for a job. Same old disappointments."

"Ooh before I forget I have a friend who works at Snorve Organization and he tells me there's a vacancy."

That name Snorve sounds familiar. Ooh from the radio advertisement. Okay now this is interesting and a bit optimistic.

"What? Are you serious dad? "

"Yeah am serious, he's now in a meeting but promise will talk to him to give you the post. If am not mistaken it's also under the course you did at campus."

"Yeah...have heard the advert now in the radio. Thanks dad. You're the best. How's mum and Carl?"

Carl is my cat pet. He's like a brother to me. Since I've been in a family of me, mum and dad has been hectic not until Carl came into my life. I really miss that crazy playful cat.

"Your mother is fine. She's actually pruning of the flowers at the garden and well Carl has been a bad boy of late. He drunk Mrs Murphy's bottle of milk."

"What? Damn I missed some moments there."
I laughed keeping in mind Mrs Murphy hasn't been my favourite neighbour. She quite creepy and looks horror at times. Am sure she scared the hell out of Carl to deserve that.

I heard a knock at the front door. "Dad I'll have to go. Someone's at the door. Love you dad."

"I'll call you later then. Love you too baby girl."

I took a brief glance at the clock.
12:45pm
Who the heck is at the door this afternoon!
Well we usually don't get visitors without a light notice before they end up here.

Calm down.

Hope you liked it. Lots of goodies awaiting.
Love,
