“You should go to sleep. It might be a while and you have school tomorrow,” my mom says. I close my eyes and try to sleep.
I never ended up sleeping. I only rested my eyes. Finally the doctor came and he seemed extremely young, as if he had only been a doctor for a few years. I told him the whole story, from the beginning to the end. He thought that I should go and get a EKG.

It was already after midnight once we left. I told my mom that I didn’t want to go to school in the morning because I wouldn’t get a lot of sleep. She agreed and told me to call dad. I did what she said. I called my dad to say that everything is fine but I have to go to St. Peter’s Hospital before school on Thursday. The second I went home, I quickly took a shower and fell
