I look down at my phone and it is a unknown number, I usually don't answer unknown numbers because its's either little kids trying to pull pranks, some company trying to sale their products, or just weirdos that don't even speak.
I answered anyways "How may I help you?" I hear lucky chuckle under her breathe.
"Oh gosh, Ruby thank God."
"Who's this?" the person sound familiar but I can't put my finger on who it is exactly.
"It's laveine, listen I'm so so sorry I don't even know how to explain this and it's all my fault, I don't even know what to do anym-"
"Okay slow down what happened? are you okay? is my sister okay?"
"We're at the hospital, something happened to her and I'm so sorry" she said with a crack on her voice and that is when panic start to take over my body, Lord please don't let anything bad happened to my sister.
"WHAT! WHY ARE YOU THERE? WHAT THE FU*K HAPPENED? LAVEINE IF ANYTHING HAPPEN TO HER I WILL FU*K YOU UP TRUST ME ON THAT" I screamed at my phone, lucky jumped up from the floor looking at me with concern.
"Something happened last night I don't want to talk about it over the phone can you please just come to vante hospital I will explain everything there."
With that sentence I just hung up on her face, now I'm in a rush just to go see what happens because it can't be just a little bruise by the way she just spoke to me. She's in a major panic and now I'm worried.
I grab shorts from my bag put them on then grab my bag off the floor. "I have to go to the hospital, something happened to Rachel, I need to figure out what's going on."
"Gotdamn you go ahead, I'll meet you there, don't worry about any of this." she told me putting everything in the basket.
"Thank you babe" I gave her a kiss on the cheek, I'm so grateful to have lucky in my life.
"Can you drive? Do you want me to bring you? Or you okay?"
"I'll be fine, gotta go."
"Ruby, I don't think you should drive in that state of mind."
"No it's fine, thank you. I'll send you the address."
I start running towards my house to get my car keys, at that moment that's when I regretted not taking my car over here, everything would've been way easier.
"HEY HEY RUBY, WAIT UP"
"Oh my fucking gosh can you leave me alone? I don't want to speak to you. okay?" I turn just to bump into him, I back up and look up to him.
"Why? What's wrong?" He look down at me with concern in his eyes.
"Nothing, now stop following me." I turn to start running towards my house just for him to grab my wrist.
"I just want your number, if you give me your number I'll leave you alone." He look deep into my eyes, his eyes are dark blue now but last time I remembered they were lighter than that.
"Ask lucky, I have to go." I snatch my wrist from his hand and start running.
"I hope you feel better."
I ignored him and followed the path into the neighborhood passing some houses until I reach mine. I took the spare key under the mat, open the door.
I grab a hoodie put it over my bikini get everything that I need, lock my front door then drove to the hospital.
*******
"What room is Rachel Daniels in" I ask the lady at the front desk.
"Are you family?" She ask chewing a gum with her mouth open, that's just nasty.
"I'm her sister."
"Ahhhh she's in room 515."
"Thanks" I ran to the elevator, press 5. I start to shake my legs I always do that when I'm nervous or angry just to calm myself down.
The elevator dinged, I start to jog, "511, 512, 513, 514"
I walk into the room, seeing my sister hooked in machines, laveine sitting by her side with her head in her hands.
"Hey" I said quietly, I'm not even going to lie this just hit me, no matter what my sister did she never got to the point where she would have to go to the hospital. I wouldn't have panicked usually but the way laveigne was on the phone got me really scared, I didn't even realized how scared I was until now.
"Oh my gosh, Ruby thank God" laveigne came rushing to me to give me a hug, I didn't even hug her back I just stood there while she cried on my chest.
After a minute I'm starting to get upset all over again "Ok, what happened?" She unwrapped her arm around me, wipe her eyes with the sleeve on her shirt.
"She overdosed." She whispered but I heard her, I can not believe what just came out of her mouth, my sister smoked weed before, but drugs to the point where she would overdose I never could've imagined that.
I didn't let my anger get over me, I just starred at her. "How did that happen laveigne?"
"We went to a party last night, we got really drunk after that we went to another after party at one of my friend's house and they had cocaine, I only did one line but she got over board, this guy tried to get her to do some pill I said no but then she said it was fine. She just went to the bathroom but she was taking too long so I went to check on her that's when I found her on the floor just-" she start to sob again
I left the room trying to find a doctor, I walk up to a nurse furious, tears coming out of my eyes "Where's the doctor? I need to see the doctor right now"
"Ma'am please calm down we will have the doctor out to speak to you."
"Please hurry"
I took out my phone to text the family group chat. 'Rachel is in the hospital, vante hospital get here ASAP'
I know my phone is about to blow up, I put it in ny hoodie's pocket go back inside the room just to find laveigne the same way again. Crying.
"Tell me, why do you do this? Why do you like to live in the verge of dying then when you actually about to lose someone you start to cry like someone supposed to feel sorry for you."
"Ruby, please"
"Okay, just know if something happen to her I'm going to prison. That's a threat." With that statement the doctor came in, he look like someone I've met before, I can't put my finger on it but it's like I've seen him somewhere.
"You are Ms. Daniels's family?"
"I am, she's her girlfriend." I said giving laveigne a look.
"Okay okay can you tell me what's going on?" Laveigne ask
"I want you to be calm miss because this is a lot to take in but she was overdosed."
"Yes that's what this maniac told me." I said.
"And she's actually in a coma."
"SHE'S IN A WHAT????" I screamed turning to laveigne. After that I just blacked out. This is one of the reasons why I have to stay calm. I need to have full control of my anger at all times.
