Julia has been living on Nova Island for six years. After the trauma she experienced on the island she decides to go home. It's been ten years since she's been to the small seaside town she grew up in. What she didn't expect to see when she got home...
I am still in the hospital recovering from the gun shot wound I received from my cousin. I've been going crazy with staying in the room looking at the white walls and out the window with patients sitting outside enjoying the sun. Looking at the chair next to the bed I see Cole with his eyes closed. "Cole,"
He opens his eyes and walks over to the bed. "Hey, Beautiful." Cole places a tender kiss on my forehead. "How are you feeling?"
"I'm fine, Cole. I want to go outside and enjoy the sun. I can't be stuck in this room any longer." I move slightly on the bed and wince when the slight movement causes pain. "Ouch,"
Cole fluffs the pillows before helping me lie down. "You have to be careful, Julia. You're on the mend and there's stitches where the gun shot wound was."
I know.
He steps away from the bed. "I'm going to talk to a Doctor about getting you outside. Just stay in the bed. I won't be too long." Cole walks out of the room, closing the door behind him.
Pulling my phone off the nightstand I send Amalia a message.
Me: I need to get out of this room, ASAP. Are you up to organising a hospital escape?
Amalia: I would love to help. I'm getting the wheelchair now.
Me: Thank you.

The door opens a couple minutes later, with Amalia pushing a wheelchair. She puts it next to the bed and helps me put. When I'm seated in the wheelchair she pushes me out of the room and we head in the direction of the lift. I push the button and wait for the lift to open. It opens and Amalia pushes me in as Cole heads in the direction of the room with Doctor Spence.
I push the button for the ground floor and the door closes. "Can you order something to eat? I don't want to eat anymore hospital food. It tastes horrible."
She laughs. "I haven't been in the hospital that long to know what the food tastes like." Pulling out her phone she looks at it. "I'll give my driver a call and he'll bring something over for us. Is there anything in particular that you want?"
"How about pizza? I really want one of them."
"I can do that for you. What kind do you want?"
"Meatlovers and get a supreme too. That's Cole's favourite pizza." The door opens on the ground floor and I wheel myself out of the lift. Wheeling through the hall I head in the direction of the exit. When I get to the exit Amalia holds the door open for me. "Thanks,"
