How could I have died?
880Please respect copyright.PENANAX9LQ6eg1lI
That thought continued to repeat in my mind as I lay on the ground, crying.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAVSBHnj9y6t
I knew that it was going to happen,
880Please respect copyright.PENANAQkQ73ngu6n
But I didn't expect it to be so soon.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAn8g2rPW6ue
But that was the thing about death;
880Please respect copyright.PENANA52gMuRQNDC
It was usually unexpected.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAMm5RrRTmQe
As I cried, I began to feel warmth on my hand.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAWYARYzkuIv
I dismissed it as heat from the tears,
880Please respect copyright.PENANAglOrUHPQDD
Until I felt the same warmth on my forehead.
880Please respect copyright.PENANASzQPdYcmPv
Suddenly, everything around me was slowly getting covered by darkness.
880Please respect copyright.PENANA7Np1hb85Jx
"What's going on?"
880Please respect copyright.PENANAxaxXWsewU5
"Someone help me!" I yelled as the darkness began to surround me.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAURgMzAo07L
I inched away, trying my best to escape it,
880Please respect copyright.PENANAjzgvUDMHdE
But it was useless.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAZX6qQW40eb
In the blink of an eye, it engulfed me.
880Please respect copyright.PENANA7TZUU7yVCD
"He's waking up," I heard a female voice say.
880Please respect copyright.PENANALIKGDFlGmO
"Finally, my son has come back."
880Please respect copyright.PENANAtrsC23c5YO
My eyes fluttered open and I was instantly surrounded by bright light.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAuwwaKWSJp0
I blinked rapidly to adjust and looked around.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAYds6lECadt
I was back in the hospital room.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAjtgosfXTaj
"What happened?" I croaked out, trying to sit up.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAci2NWyMBAP
"Don't sit sweetie," my mom said, gently pushing me back down.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAg7erU5fuPB
"You were in a coma Leo."
880Please respect copyright.PENANAvWRqgqz8s6
My eyes bulged for a moment as I looked from her to the doctor.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAKw1JvmGnVE
"Is-is that true?" I stuttered.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAb3BvXTeSvC
"I'm afraid so; you were gone for almost six months."
880Please respect copyright.PENANAIUps7nozDJ
Six months?
880Please respect copyright.PENANAcUpLI5Kwnv
How was that possible when I felt like I had just woke up after a short dream?
880Please respect copyright.PENANAu3FJ6JHQyb
But I pushed that thought aside as I looked around to find the clock.
880Please respect copyright.PENANARSzuqZzmP0
It was well past 3 o'clock and Alice wasn't here.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAWEClPzpqB3
"Where's Alice?" I frantically asked.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAfOVewPNLRk
"Alice?" my mother asked in a reminiscent tone.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAdh17TZuyEe
"She stopped volunteering here," the doctor said, looking at his clipboard intently.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAqYetujB2F5
"What? Why?"
880Please respect copyright.PENANAn7X7zMJJLX
"She said she couldn't take it. Seeing you in bed for six months must have been too much for her."
880Please respect copyright.PENANAgg7EnCuhqm
As I heard his words, I felt tears pricking my eyes.
880Please respect copyright.PENANA6Emoq8bbdm
I didn't feel betrayed by her for leaving;
880Please respect copyright.PENANAfHbvExWLpL
Instead, I felt like I had betrayed her by allowing her to see me like this.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAW4S4h7cfPu
That thought filled me with the need to find her.
880Please respect copyright.PENANAfRZA9dyIIN
She had done so much for me,
880Please respect copyright.PENANAh533GaV2o5
And the least I could do was to show her how much she had changed my life.
