The Pain Of A Milkovich

Chapter 2 "What The Fuck Are You Looking At?"

A week later, Ian was working and Mickey was at the store. Hannah was feeling a little better coming out of her room but not wanting to talk much. She went into the kitchen to get a glass of water. She saw her pills on the counter. She had the urge to destroy them. She picked them up reading the label that said, Milkovich Hannah. She thought about it a little longer Mickey and Ian would be so mad if she did. So she opened the cupboard and put them in there. She got a burst of energy and started to clean the house. The house was pretty clean for two boys taking care of it but Hannah wanted to make it better. She forgot about the glass of water.
Mickey walked in seeing Hannah fold a blanket that was on the couch. "Hey Mickey," she said calmly. Mickey dropped the bags he was holding and ran to her hugging her. When Hannah was in her depression state Mickey realized that she was the only family he had left. Since his mom died and his dad is in jail. Hannah was confused by his sudden action "Mickey something wrong?"
     He let go of her "no nothing at all," he said with a smile.
     "Ok I cleaned the house but you fucking dropped those bags now I have to clean up that asshat," she said. Hannah was back to normal.
     "Do you want to go to lunch with me and Ian?" Mickey asked her. Mickey and Ian weren't planning on eating lunch together. Ian just needed to see Hannah was back to normal.
     "Yeah I just have to go take a shower," she said walking towards the bathroom. Mickey got his phone out of his pocket and dialed Ian's number.
     Ian picked up "Hey Mickey what's up?"
     "Hannah's back to normal I told her we are going to lunch," Mickey said still shocked.
     "Really?" Ian questioned.
     "Yes fucking really we'll meet you at your work."
     "Ok," Ian said then hung up the phone. Ian couldn't believe Hannah was back to normal. He could have his best friend back.
After Hannah showered Mickey and she got in the car and started their journey to Ian's work. They sat in silence on the way there but it was a good silence. Mickey kept looking at Hannah at every chance he had. He just couldn't believe she actually went back to normal. He lost hope seeing she want fine in a week. Hannah noticed Mickey looking at her. She couldn't take it anymore "what the fuck are you looking at?"
     Mickey put his eyes back on the road "nothing."
     "Then stop fucking looking at me." She said.
They got to Ian's work. Ian walked out in the parking lot to meet them. He hugged Hannah "I'm happy you are back to normal."
     Hannah pulled away from him "what do you mean back to normal?" Ian knew to stop what he was saying. Knowing that even he tried to deny his own mental illness.
     "I don't know what I'm talking about" he stuttered. Hannah just brushed it off. The rest of the day Ian took off work. They hung out together and ended up falling asleep on the couch.
