Jordan I still can't believe Nova is in there unconscious. Her mother is one hell of an irresponsible woman, I know this feeling, my parents are also as useless, regardless my mom won't leave me all by myself at a time like this. Trish, Miley and sweet Honey walked in looking so worried, they were in the same uniform, making me wonder why Nova goes to a different school. "Look who is still hot in her uniform" Lois teased Trish who was at moment not interested in his talks. "Where is she?" Honey asked me directly, why me? "Still inside" I told her, just then the doctor came over to us, I was hoping Nova was awake already. "No adult yet?" He asked and we all nodded but I am 18 already, can't I just stand in as an adult? "It's fine, what do you need?" I asked him. "Who will fix the bills" oh that, the bills. "I'm sure I can do that" I replied and followed to his office, he did some explanations that made no sense to me. All I understood was that, NL should be given enough attention and also make sure someone is by her side at all times. Also, she should be awake soon, she is already stable. After he directed me where to pay, I went back to where everyone was and got a look that gave away something just happened. "What?" I was scared, thought the doctor she was stable now. "Her mom is on her way" Miley said with contempt. Something told me it was a bad idea, with the way the girls looked but who would stop a mother from coming to see her sick child. ***** Third Person Narrative. Hailey got out of her car only to find the door wide open, she was really scared wondering if her daughter was fine, she rushed in to her daughter's room only to find bottles of alcohol. Nova's phone was on her bed, she felt her daughter should be somewhere around then since her phone was here. She wondered what so much bottles of alcohol was doing in her room, there was never a time when she did not remind her not to drink, now not only did she drink but that much? Looking through the whole house Nova was no where to be found. "Where could she have gone?" She asked herself, her hands on her hips, tired from all the stress from work, now she has to start looking for a child. Sometimes she just wish Nova was more responsible but who was there to guide her right? She try her best but she knew so well that her best wasn't enough. Her daughter needs her more but she needed to work hard and make her live comfortably. She miss he sweet little girl who has grown so big in no time, how did so much time pass by? Working, yeah, working. She called Honey, the only one among her daughter's friends that she can manage, she hate the sight of that Miley, daughter of a bitch! "Honey, darling" she said with an eye roll, darling her foot. "Mrs. Lionel" Honey replied in shock, she couldn't even remember the last time she got a call from Hailey. "Is Nova with you?" "We are at the hospital, she is unconscious right now" "Text me the hospital address" she told Honey, rushing out of the house. She could not believe it, her daughter was that sick and she was not there for her. Nova must hate her so much right now, oh her dear daughter. All she was thinking was how to get her dead husband buried and now her daughter was unconscious? Is this God's way of showing her how important family is? Her daughter has to survive this, if not it will just render all of her work and effort useless. Her phone beeped, she picked it up immediately to ready Honey's message. It was the closest hospital to the house. **** Jordan We all walked her walk in like someone who cared, what a mother! She went straight to Honey, ignoring the rest of the girls. "Where is my daughter?" She asked, Miley who was already pissed just had to respond. "I think you should have started with a thank you, so much for being a mother! If you were home with her, you wouldn't be the one asking after her" Wow, truth in your face woman! "I was not talking to you, you no different from your mother, with that smart mouth of yours" Mrs. Lionel replied, guess she has issues with Miley's mother. Miley gave a mocking laugh, wow! this girl is really something. "At least she is a responsible mother, she knows what it means to be a mother" Mrs. Lionel must have felt insulted with Miley's words, she raised her hand to hit Miley but Honey was quick to intervene. "It's fine, Nova is inside and I think she spoke the truth" Honey said quickly. Her eyes went over to us boys, I knew she must have had questions but she had been ridiculed enough for one day, or maybe not. The doctor came back to announce to us that Nova was already awake. "Can we see her now?" I asked and he nodded. He spotted Mrs. Lionel and stopped her. He told her how it was wrong to leave a minor all by herself and that she would have been held responsible if anything happened to her. He told her he had so much to discuss with her, so she left with him while we went in to see Nova. She looked weak in bed, Andrew who had been quite all along was the first to get to her side, holding her hand. "You lied to me NL" he whined, really? That should have been for Lois and not the always mature Andrew. "Sorry" Nova told him weakly. "I'm sorry, we shouldn't have left you all by yourself" Miley told her and she just smiled. I just stared at how weak she looked and how low her voice was. She looked round, only for her eyes to land mine, I was standing at the door just staring, I was not even sure what to say or do. I remember carrying her unconscious self, my fear was she not surviving this. "Jordan" she called weakly, wait was she calling me? The almighty Nova Lionel? "You scared me" yeah, she knows already stupid, she scared everyone. "I'm sorry" she mouthed, I felt the urge to go over to her, so I did. "Man was so scared almost driving us to death, you should have seen how he carried you" Lois told her laughing, I guess he was just so happy to see her alive. She looked over to me in disbelief. "Thank you" oh really? "Now you see there is no man out there better than I am" "Oh please! Your head?" She remembers my health uhn? Thinking about it, my head hurts like crazy right now but I never felt it since morning. I guess pain surpasses pain. "I'm fine" I told her just to calm her, I don't want her feeling guilty or anything. She just kept smiling weakly looking at all of us being here for her. I totally forgot her mom was around until she walked into the room, I watched her countenance change the moment she saw her mom.
