My Past Before Now

Chapter 5

I woke up to hear a scuffling out side. My brain wasn't working, and I was sore. I reached over my bed and grabbed my crutches, soon I wouldn't need them. I got out, put my one slipper on, and walked back to the sliding door that leads to my back yard.

My phone was ringing and buzzing like crazy, I ignored it and got into my pajamas. "I'm not going anywhere, so why not?" I wiggled into my shorts and sat down on my bed. It was a soft queen sized bed...
