Promise me...

Chapter 4

I feel so groggy. As I open my eyes I see a ceiling with white paint. I know this is not my room so I shoot awake. I then realize I don't remember what my room looks like. But I know someone like me would not have boring white paint. I feel like I am a stranger to myself, I shake the feeling off and get up from my bed. I don't remember how I got here. The last thing I remember is nothing - I'm blank but then my dad and my best friend Charlie pop up in my memory.  Okay, no need to panic I hush myself and look around maybe I can remember something once I find my dad. 

I get out of bed determined to find my dad and make sense of my situation. I walk out of my room and see the reception desk filled with people inside and out of it. I've noticed that hospitals are always full I can't imagine what was so wrong with me that that they prioritized me and gave me a room.

I walk down the hospital corridors when I see someone. I know him. I don't know how but he clicks. He is standing in a room with someone on the bed. He walks out of the room and our eyes meet. His eyes have nothing but sadness in them. I'm frozen and we just stand there looking into each others eyes till he breaks the silence.

"An...Andrea Blair? from AP Bio right?"

"Sure..." I say thinking he is probably right.

"We also bumped into each other and you called me a wall. You have been giving me pretty bad looks since that day."

"Sounds like me..." I mumble underneath my breath.

"Yeah. Anyway everyone at school thinks you are abroad on a vacation to Italy so why are you in a hospital gown?" He says with a suspicious smile.

"Huh? what? uuhh I'm so stupid why can't I remember anything?!" I scream and kick at myself. I feel a pain shooting from my brain down my spine. Before I know it I am sitting on the hospital floor crying and screaming in pain. What's happening to me? I can hear the boy he keeps asking me if I am okay.

"GET AWAY FROM MY DAUGHTER!" I hear a booming voice, Oh my god! its my dad. In a second two men come and grab the boy away. I remember now they are my uncles, uncle Tom and Derek. My pain rises again in my head. This time it is so much that all I see is black...

I wake up in the same room as before and see my dad and uncle Tom beside me. "Andy, Hi! " My dad says wiping away his tears. "How are you feeling now?"

I take my hand and place it on my forehead. I realize the pain is gone. "Fine.. dad."

"I knew the doctor was wrong when he said that you wouldn't remember anything! I knew my Andy would fight I knew you could never forget me." He says very enthusiastically. Then the doctor walks in with uncle Derek.

"I'm glad you are awake Ms Blair." Says the doctor "And I see you remember your father. Do you remember these two?"

"Yes, uncle Tom and uncle Derek. " I say pointing to them. 

"No actually Ms Blair this one is Tom and this one is  Derek." Says the doctor

"Yes, sorry now I remember you are right. Sorry" I say shaking my head in disbelief.

"I see the problem now. Do you remember what happened?" the doctor says taking out his notebook.

"No all I remember is driving and then a flash of light that's all." My head starts to hurt as I say this

"Come on Andy are you sure you don't remember anything else?" dad says worriedly.

"No don't push her. Let the memories come to her because if she tries to hard and pushes too hard on her brain her head will hurt just the way it did before." The doctor recites from his notes. That explains what happened to me and why my head hurts every time I try to remember anything.

"And Ms Blair I'm sure you want to know what happened." says the doctor, I nod "Ms Blair you were in a car accident because a truck driver came in the wrong lane and you were very lucky because you could have been killed. So now you have woken up after two months of being in coma. Also you have a slight memory problem but all the memories you want to come back will come back with time." He turns to my dad "You just have to take her to things she is familiar with, because she wanted to meet you she recognized you so take her to places she knows and people she loves."

The doctor leaves the room. My dad discharges me and we head home. As soon as I reach the steps I remember something but very vaguely. "Dad, I feel like I need to know something but I can not remember."

"Uh.... no Andy nothing like that." Dad stares at Uncle Tom and Derek and they give him a stern nod. 

"Oh and dad the boy who I met at the hospital says that everyone thinks that I am on holiday?" I say trying to get the answer out of him. 

"Yeah, um.. I did not want anyone to know because I know you don't like being treated differently and I did not want you to become a target." Dad says "And besides I still told your best friend Charlie. Do you remember her?" Dad inquires

"Yes I do, did she come to see me?" I ask wanting to see her. 

"Yes many times but then she had a family emergency infact she knows your home and she will skip school tomorrow to stay home with you. She also came here a couple of times to fix your room and put stuff you might need in your room." Dad tells me nicely. He thinks high of Charlie. I walk up to my room to look at what Charlie has put and my dad follows. I open the door and boom my favorite song starts playing and piled up beside my bed are some of my favorite novels. My room is nice and tidy just the way I like it. On the desk is also my computer and phone fully charged and ready to go with a get well soon card. She really is the best I think to myself. She also has a message on the pin board on top of the desk saying she will be with me soon even though I don't think I want to skip school. 

"So dad, I am feeling really groggy probably because of the billions of drugs in my body. Can I get some rest today?" I plead to him.

"Sure baby girl. Love you." My dad says as he closes the door. Now this looks like my room I look around and gleam because I actually could not remember it. I take the first book from the pile and flop onto bed. Before I know it my eyelids fall and..... 

I see bright light everything is covered in this bright white light. My eyes take a minute to a just. As I look out into the distance I see this girl sitting on a grave crying. I walk up to the grave and see the name Florence Anne Blaire on it. Who could that be I think to myself? Before I can do anything else I feel pulled back from my dream and soon after I wake up hazy with a headache. My body feels like jelly and I can't concentrate on anything.
