Chapter 18
" hey your up!" A blear said.
"Uhhh" I heard my raspy voice speak.
"Do you need water?" Again said the blear
"WATER!!" I yelled
"Okay."
"Why can't I see?"
"Your temporarily blind"
"Who are you?"
"Tracey" said the blear.
"Where's Jane? Where's job?" I asked.
"I'm jobs girlfriend." Tracey said.
"Oh, Job doesn't need a girl, he's only 14." I commanded.
"Jobs 16" she said.
"What? He's 14!"
"Uh....I don't know how to explain this so... I'm just going to come out and say it! You've been in a coma for 2 years!"
"What?" I said, but I fear this was not very good!
"The great depressions over!" She yelled!
"Two years!" Wow! "No way!"
I am kind of excited, but also very scared, I wonder how Jane would feel? Was I really in a coma for two years? This is really strange. Wow! I'm older,but I don't feel older! Am I wiser? No! I'm not probably! I'm not gonna know how I'm going to do this? I've been doing nothing for two years! But as my feelings jumbled up and to many other feelings and then those feelings when into other feelings and they all just got jumbled up I just kind of exploded. But in this weird little moment I began to cry, it has been two years of me just doing nothing I feel like I am useless. I've missed two years of my life, in those two years I could've been working at the carriage company, I couldn't done it I could beat I could be doing so many more better things then this, lying in this hospital bed for so long feeling so useless so helpless. I just want to get up I just need to get up, I need to get up.I just want to scream! I need to scream! I have this weird utterly Bizarre feeling that I need to scream! Is jane okay? Am I okay? Is Job okay? How do I know these things! is Tracy okay? I'm thinking too fast, always feeling....already said this! I just, I just I JUST......I can't help but scream! I need to get up, I need to get up, I need to get up,I need to get up, I need to get up, I need to get up, I need to do not scream! I need to scream. I need to get up."The dog, it really hurt you bad! You almost died!" She said. I instantly forgot about all my feelings and focused on what Tracy was saying.
"Wow!" I was kind of barely listening but then I stopped and stopped again. I listen more and more and more and more, and I begin to get curious!
" I know it's a lot to take in."
"I know. ". It was a lot to take in. I wish you and Jane! I really wish she would mention something about Jane.
"Janes fine too. " I heard Jane's name.
she went on....
"she was very upset when the doctors told her that you were in a coma but, now that you're fine she will probably come up here. " she said still with a blur."Oh my gosh. Jane I have to see her!"
Tracy rushed out the door of the hospital. She probably was going to get Jane but she had not said a word before she had left. It's weird being blind temporarily. But, it's so weird not knowing what you're seeing you mostly only see blurs. After two hours Tracy come back. She rushed to the door. An old woman was falling behind her. I couldn't tell actually but I could tell by the blur and stature that she was old she seemed kind of hunched over it could be Jane but she's normally not like that.
"Oh my gosh! JIM! Love you so much, missed you so much, so glad I'm so glad I get to see you I love you forever! " The old lady said.
Oh my gosh Jane! "Jane! love you too " oh my gosh. She's old. She seemed to look crippled. Not the smartest thing to say in the future!
"where's job? "
I don't know " I hope she deos. "I'll go get him. " said Tracey
"So how have you been? "Said I. "You look good! maybe, I don't really know! Jane this sucks. I hate being temporarily blind! I wish it was like how it used to be. I guess you always say that." I wish I could see chains beautiful eyes, but I can't, but I know tears are falling. It's probably really hard time for her to. I hate this for her. As much as I hate it for me, I hate it for even more!
"I can't. Very rough rough couple of years and......I just really need to take a break from all this I know the great depression is over and all but I still am depressed why?! I'm not even happy that the Great Depression is over! it almost seems like the Great Depression was better than reality right now. I almost want to go back to the Great Depression. I do know that's a horrible thing to say, very few people were blessed like we were. God really showed his Light on us! But, why did he have to do this to us right now?! what did we do to deserve this?iWe've always been good people. Does it matter if your good or if Your bad. God loves us more more every day...... Oh look, i'm crying. I promised myself I wouldn't cry! Such a cliché. Sometimes I don't know if something is a cliché or if something is for real. all these emotions from the last couple years I think it is tied to other emotions and then all those emotions of the tied ones are knotted to other emotions and other emotions......and sometimes I just want to scream! I just want to scream! I feel like I've been useless the last two years! Oh Jim! I love Tracy so much! There getting married! This is why were so happy you woke up! Just in time! 45 days away! Job probably wants to tell this to you but.....he want you to be his best man! Mr. & Mrs. Roberts are back together if haven't already known! Things really changed Jim.
A lot of things have changed."
