Fields of heaven

Chapter 35: Part 2

I inhaled and exhaled the fresh jasmine scent like it's been forever. I wobbled my fingers and wiggled my toes, under the plain white blanket. Everything felt so new and untouched. I squinted my eyes and glared around; and the light was bright, scarring my fragile eyes. I stiffly sat up straight, my back aching tremendously. To my amazement, I was sitting on a hospital bed in a very immaculate hospital room. But how? When? All I knew, was that I had a very big bandage on my forehead; which hurt so much, and faint scars around my hands. And finally I noticed mum, sleeping by a sofa next to my bed. 

"Mum!" I called out. She jumped up frantically and scanned the entire room: when finally, she saw me. She ran and cried. "Leanna your awake, finally! Is your head hurting or your throat or your hands? Is your.." Before she could continue babbling, I quickly interrupted. "Woah, mum. I'm totally fine and what's up with my head and my throat and hands?!" I said feeling anxious. She gulped whilst smiling, then ran out. People should take me seriously sometimes, it's getting annoying. Within seconds, a cute doctor with his hot assistant came in marching with mum. "Really mum? I did say, I'm totally fine," I said slowly getting out the bed. But before I could, the doctor rushed over and held me by the elbow: and sat me down again. I gave him a awkward look, then sat up straight again. "Hi Leanna. I'm Doctor Knight and this is my assistant Cheryl." He said smiling, his white teeth glistening. "Hi.."I said awkwardly. "Ok..So how are you feeling then?" He said, sitting by me. "I'm ok, only my head is hurting so much. I don't know why." I said. Doctor Knight, mum and Cheryl glared at each other; in concern, then beamed back at me. 

"Ok Leanna, this isn't going to be easy. So please don't freak out." Doctor Knight explained. "What is it?" I said, feeling frightened but anxious. "Ok so on the date, 13th September you had an accident." He explained. "What? An accident?!" I said, hyperventilating now. "Calm down love, it's ok." Cheryl said patting my back. "On the 13th of September, you suffered a serious heart attack and minor seizures of amnesia." He said, feeling uneasy to say the rest. The room was silent, until I spoke. "So I had a heart attack with amnesia. So what the FUCK is up with my head!?" I screamed, feeling troubled. "Leanna," Mum said, indicating to listen further. I quietened down and gulped. "When you had your accident, you fell and hit your head hard making it bleed continuously. You were unconscious, so you didn't see all that. But.." He said stopping with frustration. I stared at mum, noticing tears dropping down her lilac top slowly. She tried to be strong for me but it didn't work, not this time. She smiled, wiping her tears as she stood, staring at me: trying to build her courage again. I slowly looked away and gleamed at doctor Knight. "But what?..." I said feeling panicked now. "This isn't easy Leanna but after the accident: the head injury, the heart attack. This led you to a 3 month coma." He said. "Coma?" I said, shocked. "Yes baby. But you have to be strong for yourself and for everyone else, ok?" Mum said, giving me a tight hug and kiss. My heart was beating softly, empty and shaken. I couldn't believe his words. So many things at once, so many horrible things. 

"Can you all go please? I really need time alone.." I said looking down, not able to look into mum's tearful eyes. I didn't look up but heard them slowly wonder away. The door shut and I looked up. I couldn't believe my fate, my unfortunate fate. It's like I'm jinxed. First with that Xavier asshole dumping me and the accident and now amnesia. Wait, where was my friends? Clair, Tom, Abby? But mostly, where was Ed? Did he meet me when I was in coma or did he forget about me? Did he bring me my favourite flowers or my favourite selection of chocolates? Or did he leave me to suffer alone? All that I could remember was that Ed said he was going to pick me up from my house to go school. It was a late night and we were texting away until like 2am! I just can't remember anything else after that. Did I have the heart attack while I was sleeping: after the lengthy messages with Ed? I was confused and baffled, and couldn't take anymore stress. I lay my head down, thinking and thinking about unnecessary stuff; until I fell into my usual deep sleep.
