An Unpredictable Love 15

1 week later

I woke up. My eyelids were heavy. Everything was too bright. I let out a soft moan of pain. I heard Hyden’s voice. It was foggy but yet clear at the same time. It all seemed as if I were underwater. It was weird. But it felt so good to feel again.  I felt weak. The nurses came in and so did the doctor. They were all amazed that I was awake. They propped me up. I finally opened my eyes all the way. My vision was blurry and unfocused.

“Miss. Everheart, can you hear me?” The doctor asked. I nodded. “Can you see me?”

“Barley but yes” I replied in a weak voice.

“In a few minutes you will be able to see again. You were in a coma. You had more internal bleeding it was in your head. You’re lucky to be alive.” Why didn’t I feel lucky then? There was pain everywhere.

“When can I go home?” I asked.

“It’s hard to say. You can’t go officially home until we know you have someone to look after you-”

“I can. I’m her brother, please, our dad can also watch after her.” Mark said.

“We have no record-” A man about 6’ 2 came in. He had dark brown hair and hazel eyes. He had tanned skin.

“I am the girl’s father. I’m Roy Pierson. Kali Everheart is my daughter. We can do a blood test if you’d like. Joyce Anderson is her mother. We never married.” The man said.

“Then how come she has a different last name?”

It was my turn to speak. “It’s my uncle’s last name. Ronny Everheart is his name. He adopted me. He made me call him uncle though.” Everyone looked confused. “Trust me, I went through hell to find that out.” It was true. It took me 5 days. Finally I asked that angel like thing. And it told me.

“Go ahead and look at the adoption records for this town.” Every one was still confused but Steve recovered fastest. He came over and gave me a hug and whispered in my ear

“I’m glad you’re doing better Hun.” I just smiled. I was still tired but I was too scared to sleep. I didn’t want to die. I didn’t want to slip back into a coma. It was bad enough that I might not even be able to go home. The idea of living with Mark and his…er our dad didn’t seem too bad. I knew Roy; he’s a pretty decent guy. Hey I had a brother and a father now, only if my mother would leave. I knew that I wouldn’t be able to handle her. She was still the same selfish her that she’s always been.

“Well IF we can prove that Mr. Pierson here IS indeed Kali’s father then Kali, you may go with him and his son.” I nodded and Mark seemed to be silently rejoicing. A nurse then came and checked on my IV’s. I knew she needed to change them. I grimaced. My eyes slowly closed as all the voiced grew into one big mumble. I was out.
