TRIGGERWARNING (The Less Intense Version)

CHAPTER NINE VIC

6:12 am
Thursday& Friday
I woke up in my hospital bed, I had forgotten that I was in hospital. I looked around, everything was dark, and no one seemed to be really awake. I wanted to go back to sleep so badly, but I was so tired. Then something unexplainable happened, I wanted to grab my glass of water and suddenly I felt dizzy again. I passed out; I mean I was used to it by now but this one was different. I woke up with an enormous headache, then it hit me, it was fucking bright outside. I looked at my phone clock, it was 6:25 am. I passed out for over ten minutes; I pressed the nurse button. As she came in, I told her everything, the nurse gave me my medication and told me to lay down. I did as I was told and actually managed to fall asleep again. As I woke up again it was midday already, I waited for my lunch, since I had skipped breakfast. The food was really not the best, we had spaghetti that were overcooked and some weird mushroom sauce. I was questioning why I was still in the hospital, then I touched the back of my head and remembered the open wound from the edge of the table I fell on. My mom visited me in the afternoon as I just did my little walk through the hospital. The nurses told my mom that I would be able to go in the evening today, which made me happy and sad at the same time. Happy because I could go where I wanted again and sad because I had to go to school again. I waited till I was allowed to go and stormed out of the hospital with a big wound dressing on my head, I looked stupid, but I didn’t care. I was at home and texted Ember; she opened my message but didn’t text me back. That made me sad, but I thought she just had too much to do. I sorted my school supplies and then went to watch some TV. Mom came in every 15 minutes to check on me, that was very annoying but at least I knew she cared about me. I fell asleep in front of the TV. The next morning mom woke me up, she asked me if in really wanted to go to school because of my injury. I said yes and ran to the bus, as I got on it went silent. Everyone knew what happened to me because Ember told them. I didn’t know how to act so I just sat down and tried not to look anywhere except me at my feet. I looked to Ember and wanted to talk to her, as I looked at her, she immediately stopped talking to the girl behind us. Then I asked the question that was burning on my mind for days now. I said with a shaky voice: " Ember, I´ve been wanting to ask you this question for a long time now, do you still love me?” I expected a “Yes of course” but all I got was a scared look of Ember and the cold shoulder. Did this little filthy bitch just say that it was over without even using words for it? I stood up and moved to another seat. Ember texted me via WhatsApp, but I didn’t reply, that little bitch was going nuts. I now claimed our relationship as over. How could she not even say anything? As we arrived at school, I told my mom that I didn’t feel good, and she picked me up. I needed to process this shit. We had been dating for two years now, and she just drops me. Why is my life like this literally why? She texted me again, but this time I replied. I texted: “Does this mean its over? Did you need to tell me like this?” She texted back:” I´m sorry, I wanted to tell you when it was safe between me and Destiny. I´m sorry Vic, I didn’t know you were questioning our relationship.” I didn’t know what to say anymore so I just left her on read, threw my phone away and cried. But the only positive thing was that my hoe phase had now begun, Ember wouldn’t recognize me again. I started texting a few people from school if they wanted to hangout once or twice. A few already replied after two minutes, two girls and one guy said yes, the other declined my “amazing” offer. I planned a date with each one of them for the next days but placed so no on could notice I was dating all of them, fuck this little bitch, Ember. Still, I was hurt on the inside, why did all of this happen at once?
