Chapter 14
Kenza’s POV
The next morning I woke up to see the sun shining into the room. Sometimes I like the sun and sometimes I don’t, it depends on my mood. This unfortunately, just happened to be a time that I hated it. It was way too early in the morning to deal with the sun.
What time was it anyway? I looked around to find a clock but there wasn’t one. What kind of room didn’t have a clock in it?
As I slowly sat up in bed memories of the night before started to slowly come back to me.
Luke was real. He had added me on Facebook, but then there was the May problem. I still needed to find out about her.
It’s not like I could go ask people at school, I haven’t seen them in 2 years and it’s not like I ever talked to them before that. I was always the girl in the back of the class, hood up, but paying attention and doing my work, while never getting called on or drawing attention to myself.
I leaned off the side of my bed to grab the laptop that I had last night. The only thing there was the paper with May’s number on it.
I ignored the paper and pressed the call button on my bed to get a nurse to come.
It didn’t take long for a nurse to show up. It was a girl I hadn’t seen before. She walked to the middle of the room.
“How can I help you, miss?” She asked softly.
“Well first can you tell me what time it is? I seem to not have a clock in my room.”
She lifted her arm up to look at the watch she was wearing. “It’s 7:48 A.M.” She said with a small smile.
That was way too early for me to be up normally….but this isn’t exactly normal and I’m barley even tired.
“Thanks. Also I had a laptop last night….could you bring it back to me?”
She just looked at me for a second before speaking again. “We don’t give patients laptops…..” she trailed off.
“Well Dr. Breakson gave me one last night, but it’s not here this morning.”
“Oh, well I don’t know why. I will go find out and get back to you. Okay?”
“Yeah, sure.” With that she walked out the room leaving the door open this time.
For some unknown reason I was now in a great mood, like a skipping around in the park kinda mood.
I got out of bed to go open the window to let some fresh air and sunlight in the room.
I pushed the curtains aside and then pushed the window open, it was a great view. There was a garden outside and a small playground for children.
The nice weather made me want to sit outside today. I turned around to go back to my bed, when I saw a closet door. It was hidden from view when lying in bed so that’s why I didn’t notice it before.
It was very tempting to open it to see what was inside. As I went to open it I remembered the saying "Curiosity killed the cat," but I walked over to it and opened it anyway. The only thing inside was a clear plastic bag that had clothes in it. So I opened it to see what they looked like.
There was a full outfit, pants, shirts, socks, underwear, and everything really. I didn’t recognize the clothes but they looked my size.
I decided to take a shower, I mean come on I’ve been in a coma for two years I must look and smell horrible.
I walked into the bathroom. The first thing I did was look in the mirror, which I regretted instantly. My hair looked like rat’s nest and I just overall looked horrible.
I slowly peeled off the gross hospital clothes and climbed into the nice hot shower.
With the water pouring down on me I let myself just relax and think about everything going on.
My parents….they…they were dead. I couldn’t believe it. Yeah, we weren’t that close but it still hurts. What am I going to do now? Where am I going to go? I didn’t let myself cry. I needed to be stronger than that. I can get through this.
I could get through these even faster if I knew what was going to happen to me, but that will just have to wait.
Another thing that is bothering me was May, she really creeps me out. There was no way her story was true and I was going to get to the bottom of it. When I get the laptop I will search her and find everything I can about her.
But the most important thing at the moment is Luke. Luke was real! I needed Luke to get through all of this, along with the others. Out of our whole group Luke was the one that understood me the best. I really need my friends.
After I finished washing my body I got out the shower and got dressed. Once I was finished with that I went to brush my hair and then I realized I didn’t have a brush. There were only a few cabinets in the bathroom so I searched them.
I didn’t find a brush but I did find a comb in the bottom drawer below the sink. In the back corner of the drawer I saw a pair of scissors. I didn’t think anything of them and just grabbed the comb.
Watching myself in the mirror I brushed out my hair, it went all the way down to my waist. Since my hair was wet it looked a darker shade of brown than usual. I studied myself for a more seconds and then decided to try something.
I bent down to get the scissors out of the bottom drawer. I reached up and grabbed some of my hair. Snip. I had cut a piece to mid back length. I like it better this way. 10 minutes later my hair was all the same length as the first piece I had cut.
Much better, I thought. I walked out the bathroom and went to sit on my bed, but there was something else on the bed.
There was a box wrapped in gift wrap just sitting there. It wasn’t a big box or anything. It was just a little bit bigger than my hand. Who would give me something?
I walked over to it and lifted it to shake it. As I shook it a piece of paper fell to the floor. I set the box back down on the bed and bent down to pick up the paper.
I read it.
“Kenza, I tried to visit you today but they told me that you couldn’t have visitors any more. So I went out and got you this so we could talk ALL the time!
Your BFFL May”
It already sounded creepy. I didn’t exactly want to open it but it was really tempting me. After trying not to open it for a few minutes, I gave into temptation and opened it.
It was a black galaxy phone. I don’t know whether to be happy that I have a phone or to be creeped out that the only reason she gave it to me was to talk to her all the time.
I went with the creeped out part, but then I thought I could use this to my advantage. I could use it to talk to Luke and maybe the others. That made it seem a little less creepy.
Just then the nurse that had left to get me a laptop walked into the room, not carrying a laptop.
“I see you got the present…”
“uhhhmmm,….yeah I did….”
“Sorry, she asked me to bring it to you and wouldn’t take no for answer.”
“Its fine", I said.
“Oh and I couldn’t get a laptop. Dr. Breakson isn’t here at the moment and he’s the only one that has the authority to get one to you.”
“That’s okay, I’m just going to use this to do what I wanted.”
“Okay, again sorry.”
“Like I said it’s fine.”
“Anything else I can help you with, Kenza?”
“There is something but I don’t think you can help with it.”
“Try me.”
“Were do I go when I get out of here?” She looked startled and just look at me, speechless. “Like I said you can’t help me with it.”
“I’m really sorry Kenza.” I just shrugged my shoulders. Hoping she would get the hint and just leave now and to my luck she did.
I finally got the chance to do some research on May.
I took the phone out of the box and turned it on. The time was the only thing that was on the screen, which was 8:23 A.M. I opened the phone and the background was a picture of May. That had to be changed.
The first thing I did was go to the pictures to change the background. If I was going to be using this phone there was no way her face would be the background.
I was even more freaked out when I got to the pictures. There were pictures of me. It wouldn’t have been creepy if I knew she had taken them or I had posed for them. But no…they were pictures of me during school doing what I normally do, reading in the back of the class or doing homework.
I didn’t need to know anything after that. I knew right then that she was a creepy stalker.
I deleted all the pictures off the phone. I didn’t want anything else to do with her. I then decided to just delete everything off the phone so I could make it my own.
I guess it was a good thing though. I most likely wouldn’t stay in this area after I get out of the hospital. I would probably have to move since my parents died and I don’t know any of my other relatives.
Once everything was deleted, I started downloading apps and making it my phone. The first app I downloaded was Facebook and its messenger app. Luke hadn’t messaged me back yet. Hopefully he will soon. I went to his pictures and found a really cute one of him……wait did I just say he was cute???
I ignored that thought and kept looking through the pictures. There was one that I really liked of him and Alice so I made it my background picture.
