A reason to live
"Have you taken your medicine yet?"
This is the same question that I get asked everyday for the past 7 months.
"What if I don't? I will die soon anyways." I thought to myself before gently nodding my head in approval.
Hearing some teenagers laughing outside, I got up and sat on the edge of the Hospital bed gazing through the window and started wondering how my life would have been if I had not been ill "would I have gone to university? , would I've had a Girlfriend? "And multiple other questions started flowing through my brain.
The more I thought about it the clearer it became, my life hasn't always been perfect, even before I got diagnosed with CHD, since my mum died nothing has been 'OK'. My dad started drinking, I couldn't concentrate in class, so obviously my grades started dropping.
After all I just hope that I could reunite with my mother when I die.
Hearing loud music coming from the hallway of my floor, I snapped back into reality.
"Hey!!!" yelled one of the nurses, "you are not allowed to play music in this part of the building".
As I exited my hospital room, walking into the hallway, a girl with long blondish brown hair ran by me leaving behind a scent of fresh Roses that one can only acquire in a Flower shop.
Quickly turning around to see what she looks like, at the moment I faced her direction, she turned around, still running and excitingly said, "Sorry"
Her beauty was extraordinary, from her eyes to her smile, I was speechless.
(A few hours later)
For the past three hours all I could think about was that girl, a girl that I have never met, a girl that I have only seen for a few seconds was on my mind for the past three hours, honestly it seems kind of weird but I have never had this feeling before.
Going downstairs to get a drink at the vending machine, I was hoping I would encounter her again; I could still scent the smell of fresh roses.
"Stupid vending machine drop my drink, I paid for it." Is what I heard as I was about to take a curve into the hallway where the vending machine was.
As I took the curve I froze, "it's her" I thought to myself "there is no way that this is a coincidence, Fate has---"
"Are you going to keep staring at me?" she asked, as I was deep in my thoughts and haphazardly admiring her beauty at the same time.
"Uh um I'm sorry!"I said hesitantly, I didn't know what to say next, I was clearly blushing.
"Anyways I'm Asami, nice to meet you"
She stood up and extended her hand.
"Uh I'm Sota" I said as I shook her hand. Her hands were as soft as rose petals, I could hold her hand all day long.
I think I'm in heaven.
"Um do you need help?" I asked
"I've been trying to get a can of soda but this stupid thing wouldn't seem to budge" she said frantically while continuously hitting the vending machine.
"Let me try instead", I said hesitantly.
"Oh um OK" she said shyly.
As I started to shake the vending machine, I was praying to God.
Please don't let me embarrass myself in front of this gorgeous girl, you know that I barely ask for anything right?
I have never put so much effort and force into anything neither in school nor any other aspect in life; I guess this is the power of ---- wait, am I in love?
"Oh it dropped, it worked, thank you!"Asami yelled in excitement. I did not even realize that the soda can came out; I was too deep in my thoughts thinking about the possibility of me being in love lying between ninety-nine and a hundred percent.
"It's no big deal", I nervously said while scratching my head
"Asami, what is taking you so long you need to take your medicine", yelled a nurse from the other end of the hallway.
"On my way", Asami replied
"Meet me in the garden outside when the sun goes down, I'll be waiting for you" she said with a smile on her face while running down the hallway.
"OK I will!" I yelled without hesitating, are we even allowed to be outside that late.
