Naomi

Awake

I was laying there. I felt pressure on my body. It was like I was slowly emerging into life

I opened one of my eyes and then the other. It was very low lighting in the room. Once my ears came back to play, I could hear people talking.

I looked around and saw Nathan, my dad, Victoria, Andre, and Jamarco. Its crazy because I know all of them arnt aloud to come in at one time.

Jamarco was on the phone. I think hes talking to Jamarson. Victoria is talking to Andre. Nathan and my dad are mumuring in the corner and glancing at Jamarco. Great.

I laid back in the position I was in. I was slowly remembering what happened that night. I remember it all…I'm just confused to why I'm in the hospital.

I started to get a headache so I had no choice but to come back to reality.

"well hi" I croaked out. My throat was soo dry

Everybody stopped what they were doing and looked at me. They ran to the bed at one time. I laid my head down and covered my face. Too much movement for this headache.

"give her space" my dad said

"i'll go get the nurse" Andre said

I uncovered my face. He smoothed hair off of it. I expected him to smile but he didnt.

"why am I in the hospital?"

"you dont remember?"

"i remember everything that night. All I did was take a pill and went to sleep"

"you took the whole bottle of pills, and then you passed out and started to die"

"…what?"

"Naomi…you're on suicide watch"

"dad no…you have to make them get me off!!!"

"maybe you need it"

"I DONT!"

"is everything alright in here?" the doctor asked

I sighed and sat up. He walked over to me and handed me a cup of water. I drank it all the way down. He handed me a small clear cup. I drank it and looked at him.

"seriously gave me liquid medicine?"

"well…"

"I shouldnt be on suicide watch"

"but you tried to commit suicide"

"no I didnt. Listen. I got very fucked up at a party. Someone came and got me before I did anything stupid. We exchanged some shit that really hurt me. Well before I left the party, a guy gave me these pills. And he said they were for emotional and physical pain"

"ahhhh" the doctor said "so you entered a stage of depressment"

"no…i dont know. I just knew the pain wasnt going away no mater how many pills I took"

Tears started flowing down my cheeks.

"so you remember taking the pills now"

"yes. and when I finished the pain was gone. i was soo calm and soo numb. then i went to sleep"

"you passed out. We had to pump your stomach Naomi…"

I sighed

"i'll take you off of suicide watch but we're gonna have to do a sort of mind test to make sure you're alright"

"okay"

I smiled and he smiled. He walked out of the room and I sighed. I laid back satisfied.

"so what happened, how did you all get here?"
