,There are two kind of people in the world, all people have food water and shelter, basic needs, but that's about all that they have in common. Happy people have love, wealth, and even support when they want it, and the sad people, have... I guess they have nothing. I'm Robin, and I'm among the sad people, I was a happy person, but then a chain of events took a huge toll on me.
Two days earlier,
I wake up in the car, my first reaction to what I see is to scream, but I can't bring myself to do it. I'm so worried that for a second I forget to breath. When I glance at the drivers seat I can see that my mums face is sliced with flecks of the smashed windscreen, and to her left my dads head has been split from his right ear to the left of his forehead. My younger sisters neck sits on a strange angle, and I can tell, that each and every one of them is gone. Through the grief I can't help but try to talk to them, " wake up, please" I cry, " please just wake up." Suddenly I feel the pain in my head and neck, I slip slowly out of consciousness.
I wake screaming and a nurse runs toward my bed. "How are you feeling?" She asked with a small simple voice. I just nod my head and let it all flow in. I'm in the emergency room of a hospital I have never seen. What happened to me? Then the memories flow through, the car spun out of control, flipping twice and leaving my family dead, and me extremely injured. I ask the nurse how bad it was. " Sweetie" she said in that simple voice,"lets just say that on a scale from 1 to 10, you are a nine. I'm surprised that you survived the crash, you have intense burns along your neck and a small crack in your scalp. We have fixed your external injuries though you may still receive strong pains and headaches." I'm confused, " external?" " yes you have internal injuries to your neck and brain tissue and will have trouble breathing, particularly in your sleep, and extreme pains will occur. You will have medication and will be required to carry this with you at all times." She held up a large sack filled with fluid with a long pointed tube connected to it. "I have to carry that?" I ask " what IS it?" " you are a very curious person Robin, it is filled with liquid that will allow you to process properly, you are suffering a brain damage which blocks out sight, hearing and speech at times, you simply need to take things a bit easier Robin. This fluid will help as long as you rest and keep at your medication. I suggest you go to a new school and you will be living with your aunt Linsey." " I have to go to school?" " You are sixteen, therefore you must developer a proper education. You can where this to carry the liquid."she held up a sweat shirt with a large inside pocket for my liquid pouch. "And it will be refilled once a day as soon as you wake up in the morning. I'm going to wire it up to you now, do you want to have the lagging gas?" " yes please." And that was the end of it, I fall under the gas within seconds.
I wake up startled by my own hunger. I find it hard to believe that I really have physical brain damage, but I guess I'll learn to live with it. They decided to send me to a school-Auckland consolidated east- just three kilometres east from my aunty's house, my nurse- mrs. Sanders, the one with the simple voice,- has kids who attend this school. Her eldest is a girl, almost twenty, and has been held back a few years. Her youngest is a boy, seventeen now. " Robin," the simple voice spoke quietly now," you will be in year eleven, you are already ahead of your class so we are placing you a year ahead, you will be in my sons class, would you like to meet him now, it might help you get started." I bite my lip and nod, I can feel the tube from the liquid entered into my neck. This is just one of the factors of me being a sad person, and I would have to live with it. A boy walked into the room, his blond hair was tousled to the left and his blue eyes were glassy and pale." Hey," he says with the same kind of simple voice as his mum." I'm jake, I'm in your class this year at school, I guess I'll see you tomorrow then." He is very gentle and seems like a nice person, but I'm still a bit shy so I nod and he walks away.
