I sat up in my hospital bed. I was watching the morning news. "Looks like this week will be cold with some days rainy! On to Jamie with traffic." The news said. I drew in my sketchbook. I was drawing two females standing in front of a gay flag. It was aweful, but I tried. At least it was better then when I first woke up. Soon the news ended, I was starting to get hungry so I called for breakfeast. I reached out for the phone. I dialed 0 and waited for a response.
"Hello, front desk! How can I help you?" A pre-recorded voice said.
"Can I have some pancakes?" I asked.
"Please wait while we search for request," the voice said. "Okay, pancakes!" The call ended.
After about a hour They still hadn't gotten my pancakes. I was starving. I got up and walked out the door. I walked down the cold hallway. I pressed the elevator button and went inside. The elavator was scary, but I was too hungry to care. I got to the first floor I saw doctors chatting and drinking coffee.I walked towards them. One of the doctors looked over at me. "P-patient number 291?!" One of them yelled all the doctors quickly turned to me."M-Micah!!" One of them yelled in shock. I walked towards him."What are you doing down here?!" He asked."I ordered pancakes a hour ago and they still hadn't come." I told them calmly. "Oh we thought that you already went h-home." He said.
"W-what do you mean?" I asked. "We thought we sent you home already." he told me. "You weren't in the system." He explained. "Oh..." I Mumbled. "I'm sure that the visitor that comes every day can pick you up." a female doctor said
"10:00am Visting hours start!" I heared a doctor yell from the hallway. A nurse walked up the door and opened it, she then walked into the hall and went up the elevator. I sat down and began staring at the door. A figure walked up to the door. I couldn't recognize them because it was to dark to see there face. Who ever they were they opened the door. I looked at them and tried to get my eyes to focus on them. They finally came into the light... It was Kalee! "I know all of you know me. I'm the visitor of patient 291 and I nee -" she began. She looked over at me sitting in the chair. "Micah!" She yelled. She looked back at the doctors. "What-is-he-doing-out-of-his-room?! Is-there-something-wrong-with-him?! Can-he-go-home-?! Why-is-he-out-here?!" She said really quickly.
"Ugh what is with this chick..?" I heared one of the doctors whisper. "Micah is going home. Can you pick him up?" A female doctor asked.
"P-pick him up..? Y-yes! Yes I can pick him up!" Kalee said with excitement. "Great. Now if you're taking him home, you'll need to give something to his mother." The female doctor said. "O-o...Ok..!...?" Kalee said confused. The doctor handed her a piece of paper. "And he'll need this" the female doctor headed into the back room. "What is she getting?" Kaelee asked. "Doctors note" A doctor with a extremely deep voice said. The female doctor walked out with a piece of paper in hand and a ten dollar bill.
