He still doesn't wake up it's been 3 weeks since the accident and Brenda never felt more guilt ... She writes about their past memories after She finishes a memory She reads it to him

"You would then tell me 'Brenda let's make a vine!' and I laughed and said 'sure why not' you always love to make vines " she read to Matt about how they would spend everyday together having fun

"Then we made the vine where you were picking a wedgie I asked Matt what are you doing? and you played it off as if you were doing the nae nae"

She started to tear up , and tried to finish it but she couldn't .. she broke down and cried holding on to his hand

"Matt please wake up soon... I miss you"

With that she left the room and walked down the somewhat calm halls hearing a baby being born then a patient complaining and another just laying down with tears in her eyes

She kept walking and waved goodbye to the lady at the front desk "bye honey" the lady said

"Bye" Brenda smiled

She walked admiring everything from the neat sidewalks to the beautiful blue sky , she love the view it was so calm in Hazeywood ,the trees bright with color they seemed so alive , the parks always kept busy with children running around the grass bright green never seeming dead

The light breeze passing by along with people on bicycles waving and flashing nice smiles now and then , she wore a white coat that ended slightly above her knee and it outlined her body perfectly and dark black skinny jeans with bright red high heels , her hair was natural blonde with pink blending into blue highlights

She stopped at the cross walk an waited to for the walking man to pop up on the sign ...Brenda wasn't a fan of traffic noises the walking man appeared and she continued to walk

She loves the sound of birds chirping and the mocking jays repeating any beautiful sound they can hear , she came to a stop as she walked over to Myles Hot Mochas

"Good morning" Brenda said softly as she walked past the glass door and sat at her normal booth in the corner near a window exposing her to anyone walking by , the seat was made of leather and the table made of marvel

"Good morning Hun , the usual right?" Michele , the waitress , asked Brenda

Brenda simply nodded with a smile

"Any changes sweetie?" She asked talking about Matt

Brenda tried not to frown ... but it was too late "No , not yet" she replied with a sad and hurt voice

"Aw I'm sorry sweetie, I'm sure he'll wake up soon"

"I hope he wakes up soon" Brenda said as her eyes got watery

"It's okay Brenda, he'll get better soon"

She nodded and her food came it was just eggs with bacon two pancakes with whipped cream and syrup with a salad and a hot mocha

"Thank you" Brenda smiled at Michele

"Your welcome Hun , call me if you need anything else alright?"

"Yes ma'am" Brenda giggled

She started eating ,after she paid she walked over to her favorite park , she sat on a bench near the slide and wrote more about her memories that she shared with Matt ...

'I remember when we used to play fight watch movies and have sleepovers ... I miss those days , if only you woke up we can do all of these things again and have new memories ... you were in your bed in boxers and I had just came out of the bathroom wearing you basket ball shorts with a tank top and I laid next to you we watched 'if I stay' that night ,ironic now that I think about it because now I'm next to your bed everyday reading you our memories hoping you will wake up...'

"Excuse me?"someone interrupted

"Yes?" Brenda sniffled wiping a tear away

"Is everything okay?" the voice asked

"Yes I'm okay" Brenda smiled and looked up at the person ....

"Are you sure?" she asked

Brenda nodded

"What's that?" the girl asked pointing to the journal Brenda cradled

"Um just my personal memories"

"So your diary?"

"I wouldn't call it a diary ... "

"Then what would you call it?"

"A memory holder" Brenda smiled

"Cool, I guess , and I'm new here my name is Catherine but you can call me Cath" the girl said and smiled

"I'm Brenda, how long ago did you move?"

"last week of school" cath replied

"Oh that's cool do you want me to show you around?" Brenda asked politely hoping she wasn't ruining her plans for later on

"Yea of course" Cath said excitedly

Brenda laughed a little and said "I need to leave something at my house first"

Cath nodded and followed her

"Do you like it?" Brenda asked

"Hazeywood? yea what's not to like about it?" Cath laughed

"It's so beautiful isn't it?"

"Sure is I wish I moved here earlier" Cath agreed

They stopped at a cross walk and patiently waited "so Cath , what do you like to do for fun?"

"I like to eat and watch Netflix for fun ... does that count?"

Brenda laughed and shrugged "I guess"

The little walking man light up and the girls walked down the street

"What about you?"

"I like to read my memories to my best friend" Brenda smiled at the thought of Matt

"That's cool? where is she or her?" Cath asked " I hope I can meet your best friend" she said happily

This made Brenda frown "he's in a coma right now"

"Oh I'm so sorry I didn't know... I hope he gets better"

"I do too" Brenda said as she opens the door to her house
