"Just touch it, Monica. Kiss it..." The voice says lowly.
When I dont respond, I feel a hand wrap around my neck before my back hits a wall. As I struggle to breath, I try to let out a scream but nothing comes out.
'Beeep...beeep...beeep...beeep'
"Monica, are you okay?" I hear an unfamiliar voice say. "Monica, can you hear me?"
I open my eyes to a very bright, white light shining in my face above my head. I squint my eyes trying to find something to focus on. Everything is very blurry and the room is spinning a little as well. When I feel a gloved hand lay on my chest, I trail my eyes up their arm to see their face. I see a Caucasian women wearing pink nurse scrubs.
"How are you feeling, Monica?" She asks me as she continues to adjust things around me.
"I-" I try to talk but I notice that something is covering my nose and mouth. "What- what is this?"
"That's an oxygen mask, its helping you breath normally." She informs me. "My name is Mrs. Smith, I'm your nurse. Do you know where you are?"
I just nod my head in response to her question.
Of course, I have come to the conclusion that I am in a hospitals bed. I just don't understand why I need this oxygen mask.
Once the nurse moves to the other side of my bed, I am able to look out the window and see Aleah standing in the hallway talking to what looks like a doctor. She looks my way and when she sees me staring back at her she quickly leaves the conversation with the doctor and comes rushing into my room; holding tight onto her sons hand as he trails her.
"Baby, you're awake!" She squeals as she leans over to hug me.
As I try to reach up and hug her back, I feel something restricting me from moving. When she pulls away, I look down and see that my wrists are strapped up and bound to the bed; as well as my ankles. I also see that my clothes are changed into a white hospital gown. I try to snatch them up and yank my arms loose but it is no use; I'm strapped too tight.
"Man, what the fu'ck?!" I snap, growing agitated.
"Calm down, baby. Its just for your protection." She says.
"My protection?" I repeat as I frown at her.
"You tried to kill yourself, Jae." She says, lowly. "They ruled you suicidal, that's why you're strapped down."
"Well, unstrap me-"
"I can't do that," She cuts me off. "What if you-"
"I'm not, baby, come on now." I say with pleading eyes before looking down at her arm which is all bandaged up. "What happened to you, babe?"
She looks down at her own arm before looking back at me. "I busted your window out when you tried to...you know....in your car."
Suddenly, it all comes back. I remember fading in and out of consciousness after I tried to shoot myself. I remember seeing the bright, blue sky as I was being dragged from my car. I remember hearing Aleahs voice screaming for help. Then, I woke up in this bed.
