Broken Pieces

Chapter 3

        I woke up to lights lots and lots of lights. People are talking no, people are yelling but i don't understand what they are saying, is this the after life? am i dead? am i still alive? 

God I am so sorry for all the wrong i've done, please be with me in my troubled time. 

Someone is touching me why is someone touching me? who is touching me? I try to open my eyes but its hard when i get them open i see this beautiful lady wearing all white. I want to say something but i cant my throat hurts. The lady hands me a cold cup of water. I drunk it without hesitation,It hit the exact spot.

" Where am i"

"You're in the hospital sweetheart, ill be right back okay?"

"Okay"

I was allowed to close my eyes for three minutes on the brink of sleep, my sleep was disturbed by two men opening the door  

" We would like to ask you some questions ma'am, is that okay with you"

"Its fine"

I sat up in the bed
