A new leaf

Chapter 3- Is it too personal?

Paramedic's face met with sudden punch. Meds on tray fell on a floor and trickle of blood flew down from women's nostrils. Guilty for all of this girl got grabbed by two men and forced to sit on a bed.

- You're just a bunch of fuckers!- She kept screaming the same things again and again, looking with fury at three other people who were closer to entry of room- Fuck you all!

- She's getting agressive again - Man said to nurse- Give her hydroxizine.

- Go to hell - Girl growled, lying on bed with resignation. She wasn't more than seventeen - Go on. Fill me with this shit again. It's only ad hoc. You won't heal me. 

- Miss, you will stay here for a week so take some rest- Men said, keeping her wrist. Nurse injected medicine in her veins and after a while girl started crying.

- I don't know what would be worse. I don't know, I really don't.. You can already kill me! I don't wanna live. 

- Is it some mental breakdown?

- I assume so. She needs to sleep.

She didn't care what everybody was saying until she heard familiar voice:

- You will tell that she went to England to her uncle. You know people. They would say that she's insane. No need for explanations. 

 She closed her eyes. Some soul music was playing in the background before she heard Melovin's voice from speakerphone.

- Hi there - She said happily, observing streets by big window in her apartment. 

- Who is it?

- Nina. 

- How did you get my number? - He asked her after longer silence. 

- Come on, it's easy conclusion. It could be taken from Ihor or Artem.

He sighed and answered:

- So Artem?

- Bingo - Nina said and kept scrolling pages on her phone, still using speakerphone during conversation - I was just checking out your Instagram. Painting on the late evening? I honestly would like evenings to never end. I hate going to sleep too early and waking up too early, you know?

She looked again at photo that Melovin uploaded on his account. It wasn't work of art for sure but quite creative. 

- I didn't read your songs. Not yet. Is it what you wanted to ask me?- He spoke after a while. His voice sounded too rough in her ears.

- Partly. But it's nice that I'm not the only one who doesn't want to go asleep. Are you still in this hotel near Lviv?

- Maybe - Melovin said and Nina started to wonder if he was that busy or he just didn't want to talk to her. 

- Gosh, no need to be harsh - She said without thinking too much- Are you still holding a gurge?

- Gurge?- His voice livened up a bit.

- Are you still angry with me?- She explained - It's not fair. Get to know me before you start hating me.

- I don't hate you. Don't be too dramatic. You're in bad mood?

Nina smiled, sensing that Melovin's involvement to their conversation has grown.

- I don't know - She said and stood up- I  feel urge to put my coat on and walk the streets at night.

- Sorry. I don't understand.

- I wanna go out. Now!

- Alone?
