The nurse helps me into my gown, and helped me back on the bed.

*knock knock*

Andrew came in with ice cream.

"I brought you some ice cream" he said while showing it

"Thanks" I said grabbing it from him

"I heard what you said about not having anything left" he replied

"You weren't suppose to hear that, only the doctor was suppose to hear that" I replied

"Well, he would have told us anyway" he replied

"Are you kidding me, I want stuff to stay confidential" I replied annoyed

"Well if it is affecting your health we need to know" he replied

"It wasn't affecting my health at all, it was about me feeling alone, and not having anything left for me. I only have basketball left, I lost my parents, I left New York and all of my friends. I have nothing left for me besides basketball. So no it wasn't affecting my health, it's my feelings which I don't have to talk about with you" I snapped back

"We should know how you feel, we are always here for you, you don't have to hide it from us. You can talk to anyone of us" he replied

"Well I can never talk to y'all because everyone is hiding secrets, and goes psycho mode if I mention a guy, or if I get hurt. I've been here for less than a week, and I'm already gotten hurt, I ran away because of Aidan, and got yelled at by Ryan and Jaden about a guy I just met. You know how it is on me. Put yourself in my shoes, your parents died, moved to a new state within 24 hours of their death, finding out you're living with your brothers you just met, running away from your "brothers" , then afterwards keeping secrets from you, oh we're not done. Then two of your brothers yelling at you about a guy you just met, lastly getting held down by your brothers trying to find out where you're injured, because you don't want them to know because you're too afraid what they will do if I told them" I argued back

"I'm sorry we haven't been welcoming, it's new on us too.  You think it's easy on us too, 24/7 we are scared out our minds because of you. We have to keep secrets to protect you. We don't realize how much you have gone through but you have to get past that" he responded

He knew he messed up after he said that last sentence.

"Get out" I said in a angry tone

"Lexi I'm sor-" he said before cutting him off

"I said GET OUT" I snapped back

He walks out, and I'm left alone. I felt alone again. It is hard for me, I just wanted someone there for me. I wanted my parents back.

"Ok, Alexis it's time, we now have to head to the o.r. You ready?" Doctor O'Shea said to me

"No but I want to play basketball soon, so I guess we have to. So yeah let's do it" I replied

"That's my patient!" He said while giving a high five

We got out of the room in the bed gurney bed( idk what it's called) I didn't see my brothers. Maybe they did leaves. Why did I think they actually cared. I rather be in foster care then be here. The pain they caused for me, that one week emotional torture. I wish I was back in New York.

Right before the doors leading to where doctors can only be, I heard footsteps running in the back.

"Wait" they all said exhausted

"Good luck, I know you'll be fine and you'll do great" Jaden said to me holding my hand

"Good luck" Ryan said

"Ok we have to go" doctor O'Shea told us

We went through the doors, I didn't look back. I didn't hear anything from Aidan or Andrew. Even Ryan said good luck and he doesn't like me sometimes. I was right, they didn't care.

"Ok, we're gonna give you anesthesia, so start counting backwards" the doctor said

"Wait" I replied

"If I don't make it, can you tell my brothers thanks for all the secrets, the yelling, the arguing, and the emotional stress" I replied

"Are you sure" he asked

"Yes, I rather have them know the truth" I replied

"Ok" he said

"Now time to count backwards" he said

"10,9,8,7,6,5,4 threee" I said

And I'm out

I woke up couple hours later, not in pain but very groggy. I had to adjust to the bright light in my room. I heard beeping from the heart machine so I guess I am alive. My eyes finally adjusted to the light and I scanned the room. No one was there.

I was alone.
