  Dear Diary,

I'm writing again to let you know that I'm going to be okay in a few days. The doctor that attended to me said that the knife barely missed my kidney, just a few centimeters nearer and I would have been in trouble. They've been giving me pain killers to ease the pain the injury's been causing me.

I wish there were more days like these, where it was silent and comfortable but seeing these white walls, I feel as if I'm being enveloped and it's suffocating. My mom had traces of dried tears on her eyes when I first woke up to see her beside me. She hugged me, burying her head in my shoulder. 

And it felt alien to me. My mother rarely hugs me, so I hugged back with what strength I had left since the pills they gave me were slowly pulling me unconscious.

The last line I vaguely remember hearing was, 

"Rest, pretty baby."
