I stood in the corner watching as they worked on my lifeless body. I couldn't watch any longer so I walked through the double doors down the hall and into the waiting room where my family sat sad and worried praying for me to be okay.
I sat next to my parents and siblings watching as they cried together. I tried to wipe my mothers tears but my hand just went through her tear stained cheek.
A bright light shined in my face causing me to cover my eyes. After awhile I put my hand down seeing something angle like standing in the distance, I made my way towards it and soon I was standing in an all white room.
"Hello" I said listening to my echo "Am I dead?" I asked looking around seeing no one.
"You're not dead" I heard my auntie laugh
I turned around seeing her smiling at me. I ran to her as she embraced me in a hug.
"I missed you so much" I smiled
"I missed you too pea. Why are you here?" she asked and I stepped back shrugging
"You do know" she sighed "You shouldn't be here Mya you belong down there with your family"
"So do you" I said looking up at her
"But I can't go back you can so go baby" she encouraged
"But I don't want to"
"Why not?"
"You wouldn't understand" I looked down playing with my fingers
"I bet you I can try me" she nuged me in my side making me laugh a little
"It's so much hurt down there auntie. My parents always fight and mom even cheated on daddy our family basically fell apart after that. We're not the same Ashton family anymore" I sighed
"Things are going to get better baby your parents are working together to fix it. You can't leave before you even get the chance to see that or the chance to grow up and live your life. You've got so much ahead of you and your waisting it by slowly killing yourself" she said her once smile disappearing
"I know. It's just when I'm high the pain goes away"
She made a view of our family sitting in the waiting room.
"Look at them. They are down there crying over you do you want to really break your family apart about your death? They need you you may not see it but they do. I don't think my best friend can handle losing you" she smiled lightly "Go back" she whispered
I sighed nodding my head. "Do you get to see papa up here?" I asked
"Sometimes" she smiled "Here he comes" she said as I begin to hear faint baby laughter
I looked down seeing papa crawling towards us. I cried seeing how big he's gotten. I picked him up holding him close.
"It's time for you to go baby before it's too late" she said taking papa from me
"But I really don't wanna go"
"But you need to"
I nodded looking down at my feet.
"And stop doing drugs its killing you even if you think you're fine you're not" she said "I love you I'll always be here. Don't forget I'm watching over you and everyone else down there take care of yourself" she said placing a kiss on my forehead
"I love you so much" I sniffled
"I love you too" she said slowly fading away with papa
I opened my eyes hearing a beeping sound coming from somewhere I groaned wanting it to shut up. Once my eyes adjusted to the light I looked around seeing I was in a hospital room with no one.
