"You were brave my little brother. Now sleep it off". I feel a hand stroke my forehead and hair as I fall into a deeper sleep.
I still remember him saying that to me. I wake up the next morning. I am going home today. I was in my room alone at the moment not sure what time it is. As the white room looks grey in the dark as there are no windows in my private room this time. I look around the room this time it's not covered with flowers etc. It was empty this time around. I glance down at my left leg all bulked up with support on it. When will this all end? It's been 26 months since our bus accident. And I'm still the only one not recovered. I laying here waiting to get sent home. I turn the light on by my bed so I have some light. 7 am reads on my phone. Then my stomach rumbles. I can do with some food even though it's hospital food. I close my eyes but as I do so I hear my door open. I can smell food. I open my eyes again and there was Nurse Sara with my breakfast.
" Thank you. I'm hungry". My stomach rumbles again.
"I can hear" she smiles "How are you feeling today, Jordan?".
" Fine but hungry".
"Any pain". I shake my head no.
" Thank you for being patient with me that yet again. I promise I won't be back in a long time".
"It's alright. You're always a model patient".
" Really him!" another voice comes through the door.
"Love you too Jon". He smiles at me.
" You ready to go home".
"Yeah but I want to eat first. I'm hungry".
" Even for hospital food".
"It's not. I snuck food from our cafeteria" replied Sara.
"Thank you".
" You will never get rid of him if you treat him like a star".
"Isn't he?" She laughed.
Jon rolls his eyes and shakes his head. "Don't blow up his ego anymore. I have to deal with it while he recovers from his operation". I stuck my tongue out at him and then carried on eating. " See what I have to put up with".
"He's not that bad".
" Thanks" I replied with a grin.

I got sent home with crutches again. As I went through the front door I got surrounded again but this time, not my family. But by a yellow lab. Wait, when did Jon get another dog?. Max.
"Max" the dog came running over to me. That means "Caitlin" I yell. I was getting excited as much as I can on crutches without falling over and damaging the work done on my knee. Jon walked in after me and he put his keys in the bowl by the door. Max brushed up against him.
"I knew you love that dog" I snickered at my brother. Jon just rolled his eyes at me.
"We better get you comfy on the couch before you fall over".
"Funny".
"You need to recover ready for cruise and Asian tour".
"Yeah I know but Caitlin".
"Not here".
"Max" pointing to the dog who hasn't left Jon's side.
"She is out".
"Oh" I tried not to sound disappointed but it still did.
"Let's put you on the couch then".
"I can do it myself".
