The Ticket to Love

Chapter 20

I finally woke up and saw myself in the hospital. Great in the hospital once again.
I looked around the room and no one was here. Just a couple seconds later my parents came rushing in. I was startled there a bit. I was just enjoying the quietness of this room.

"Baby are you okay?" my mom said coming in.
"Yeah I'm fine just wondering what happened to me." I said touching my head.
"Apparently you were going to your car and you just passed out. Luckily one of your co-workers saw you and called the ambulance." my dad answered me.
"Yeah and thank goodness you weren't in your car driving when that happened." my mom said.

At that moment, the doctor walked in.

"So doc what's going on?" my dad asked him.
"So Michelle seems very pale and exhausted. We know that she injured her leg in a car accident and we took a look at her leg. Her leg is recovered but not as strong. It still needs time to get stronger. Umm when was the last day you ate?" the doc asked me.
"Umm this morning." I said kind of lying.
"What did you eat?" the doc asked again.
"A bite of toast." I finally said the truth.
"What!?!?" my mom said loudly
"Well seems like we know the problem here. She doesn't have the energy and passed out. Michelle don't mind me asking but are you by chance anerexic?" she asked.
"No, I just didn't want to eat lately."I told the doc.
"Well, you must eat before you become really exhausted and pass out more often." the doc told me.
"Okay." I said.
"Thank you." my parents thanked the doctor as she walked out.

Before my parents tried talking to me, I fell asleep again. I was discharged the next morning. I went home and headed to my room. My dad grabbed my shoulder and took me to the kitchen . He sat me down and gave me a plate. He placed a t-bone steak on my plate with vegetables along side with it.

"I'm not hungry." I told them.
"Eat!" my dad commanded.
"And so we know you ate everything, we are going to sit down and watch you eat." my mother said staring at me. I could see the worried look in her eyes, telling me to eat and that everything will be okay. I took a couple bites but then I couldn't take it anymore.

"This is not alright! Everything is not okay!" I yelled.
"Honey what are you talking about." my mom said touching my shoulder. I moved back.
"This, this is not okay. I know I'm not okay. I lost the best boyfriend and my friend. I'm not eating right. I'm not myself anymore and I don't know what to do! You keep telling me everything is going to be alright, but it's not!" I said crying. I suddenly fell of my seat, but my dad caught me. A couple minutes later, I came back to my senses.

"Michelle are you okay?" I heard my dad talk.
"Huh... yeah I'm fine." I replied to him.
"Michelle, if you're okay please go eat." my mother begged.
I headed to the table but my body was a little shaky at first. My dad helped me to the table. I started eating and I saw my parents happy again. Man I forgot how good food was. A couple days later, I finally went back to work but I worked only a couple hours a day just so I didn't work myself too much. As I progress, I will be able to work as usual. Now these days, I feel like a robot, I do the same thing over and over again. I get up, go to work, eat more then usual, go to my doctors appointment, and stay home. There is nothing interesting in my life now. My parents try to do things but it gets boring or sometimes they just try to hard I don't even care anymore. I decided to take some online college classes to speed up my year. That helped a little bit.

One day my parents texted me to meet them somewhere.

Dad: Meet us at The Garden around 4. Also dress up.[Recieved]
Me: Okay.[Sent]
Dad: See you soon honey. Oh and use my name when they ask for reservation. [Recieved]

I went to the bathroom and got ready, and I headed out. By the time I got there, I saw the place was full. I wonder how my parents got this place for us to eat. I went inside and I told the waitress my dad's name. She took me to the table but my parents weren't there.

Me: Where are you? [Sent]
Dad: Sorry we're late. Coming soon.[Recieved]

Then a random, but good looking guy came to sit down at my table.

"Excuse me, are you Michelle." the guy said.
"Uh yes...and who are you?" I asked kind of scared as of right now.
"Michelle, you really don't remember me?" he said laughing.
"No...am I suppose to?"
"Well I think you should remember your first crush." he said touching his chest.
"Adam Grood? Is it really you." I said surprisingly.
"Here in the flesh." We both started laughing. We talked about our life and caught up. But I didn't like him anymore. It was nice going out, but I just couldn't do this.

"Michelle, hello Michelle." he said waving his hand in my face.
"Huh oh sorry. Umm Adam, I had fun talking to you, but I can't do this." I told him.
"Why because of your boyfriend, or your ex-boyfriend I mean. What's his name again. Like Jungkick or something." he said laughing.
"What the hell did you say. First how do you know about him. Second don't you dare laugh at him or whatever you just did there." I said wanting to slap him.
"Your parents told me about it. And what did I do. He's korean isnt he. Why would you date someone across the world anyway." he said.
"You should not be knowing about this and it's because he treats me well okay." I said angrily.
"Yeah so good that you guys broke up." he said laughing.
"Hey Adam."
"Yeah." he said leaning in
"Go fuck yourself! Don't ever talk about him like that." I said, throwing water at him. Then I left and everyone looked our way. Some were laughing when I left.
