It was two days and I had not seen or heard, more like seen, my mother. Every morning I found dirty utensils, meaning the woman was cooking, eating leaving none for me and going away. I know she loved my father but I was still alive and kicking, more like still alive and sitting.
So today I was hungry and as they say a hungry man is an angry man. When I woke up today dragged my body to the wheel chair and found the house qiete I knew it was time to be me. I had to kill myself today that way my mother could have all the freedom to mourn her husband. I checked the knife to make sure it was sharp before placing it on my left wrist, I slowly inserted the knife making sure I reached half of the hand. There is no way I was going to leave a chance to survive. I hissed as the blood started trickling down on the floor. When I saw that I had cut enough I let my hand lean on my armchair and I watched it. Soon th loor below me was bloody with my blood and it looked beautiful. My head become light and my wheelchair unable to hold my swinging head. I felt my self slowly go to a world o peace. Finally I could rest and maybe be reborned in another place. A happy one. As darkness invaded my thoughts I felt my body fall. Maybe from the wheel chair but I fell and I was happy.
"Is this heaven?"
That's the first question I asked when I opened my eyes to find a strong light above me causing my sight to blur.
"Oohh Ruby! You are awake! Call the nurse!"
That was definitely my motherad,was she dead too? But wait nurse! I didn't die? Such a number I really wanted to die. I finally opened my eyes to see my mother crying above me, what was she doing here after abandoning me for two days? I looked at her.
"How are you feeling?"
I looked at her, pause...repeat! Oohh my goodness, I could hear her! She was talking an I could hear her. I could finally hear. No that I was thinking about it, how long was I gone? I looked at her and blinked a few times.
"Ooh sorry, let me get the tab."
She finally turned away as a doctor and a nurse walked in.
"How are you feeling?
My mother wrote and I nodded my head to tell her I was okay.
"Your daughter is fine, her vital is fine now all we have to hope is that the two surgeries worked and that she can hear and maybe walk in a few months."
My mother nodded as the doctors excused himself with the nurse.
I had so many questions to ask but first I had to calm myself down. I could hear!
