Chapter 2 - When something didn't go up right

As she couldn't exactly tell who the person was, she awkwardly smiled and welcomed the person inside. As she had no idea who was sitting next to her, she asked him if he wanted a tea or coffee to break the awkwardness between them. He preferred nothing as on his way here he had gotten a drink. As there was a silence between them, he broke it and asked her. 'U much be Leanne, u grew so much, the last time I saw u, U were only two! I am sure u don't remember me.' 'Yeah, I am sorry, I just don't remember u.' She replied with a smile. 'Uhm, your mom and I knew each other for so long but we long connection. U would have known me if I kept in contact. I am Knot Anderson.' 'Knot Anderson.' She repeated not too loud for him to hear. 'Anderson.' 'Anderson.' She kept repeating under her breath. 'Could I know how you are connected with my mom?' She asked him. As she couldn't get hold of the name 'Anderson' he had said to her. She had the same surname as him. She was doubtful at this point. 'We were friends in High School. Went to college together. Had a baby together.' He said with a lower voice so that she wouldn't freak out so much. At this point, she knew exactly what he was referring to. Knot was her father who had left her when she was three years old. She couldn't believe was she was hearing. She just dropped down the glass she was holding and said about 2 words that hurt him as well as her, 'GET LOST'. He had understood her and left the house. Not long after he had left. She heard siren noises which annoyed her because of the memories that clicked in her brain about her mom. Her pale face was covered with blood. She came back to her senses and looked down the window. And then it clicked. It clicked that it could be her dad that went into that accident. She ran down the steps to find the same horror she went through. Her dad had gotten into an accident. Her normal face suddenly turned pale and tears flew down. It wasn't because of the guiltiness. It was because, even though her dad had left her, she still had that love for him. That is what made her pale and made her cry. She wiped down those tears and fell on the bed and drifted to sleep.

In the morning

She woke up and found herself having a terrible headache. At this point, she couldn't recall anything that happened yesterday. She sipped up a glass of water and put a panadol pill down her throat. She had put down two to stop with this terrible headache that she suffered right now. Days and days later, she has been falling and had these long terrible headaches. And one day, she took a knife weekly, to admit that she didn't deserve a life. She slowly went into the balcony and cut off her wrist. She fell down bleeding, A neighbour, who was upstairs of her. He went out to get fresh air before going to the office but when he was about to leave, he saw her. Her weak body hurt him as he was one of her friends. He ran down and opened her door and took her to the hospital. He had taken leave from office as he had to be there for her. He knew all the struggles she went through and decided to talk to her, talk to her if she is alive! The doctor had come out with a wide smile on his face. Without talking to him, The neighbour rushed into her room knowing that she was alive and was happy.

'Leanne, why? why? U got me so worried.' 'I don't know.' she said softly smilling. 'Now this means I can meet my mom'

That's when a glass broke by accident from her hand. She picked up the glass and cut her other wrist. That's when everything happened so fast. Her heart- Her heart wasn't beating. He couldn't process but cry and call the doctor.
