The last thing I remember is fighting with my dad. As I think back, he was with a woman. This woman was not my mom but he came gave her flowers and kissed her. As my mind jumped to he was having an affair, she looked to be pregnant. My dad’s head turned for a second and caught me staring, his face turned white as snow.

Hearing a deep voice talking to my mom, I believe it’s my dad.
“I saw Bella and she was walking somewhere, a drunk driver didn’t stop while she was crossing the street, the person hit her. I ran over and called the police, he said to my mom.” But in his head he was thinking, if I never made that stupid mistake with that girl then Bella would never gotten hurt. “I can’t tell my wife no, it’s not worth hurting her.”
My mom was outside serving coffee to people at her café. “I sprinted over to go help who got hurt, and then I saw it was Bella, my mind was in shock. She was laying there with blood all over her unconscious. As I screamed off the top of my lungs for help, my heart just sunk into my stomach.”
We got to the hospital and many doctors were running around crazy trying to get me help. Many voices I could faintly here. They were rushing me into surgery, as I was being pulled away I could feel the warmth of my mom’s hand, after that it was slipping away. That’s when I knew this might be how my mom and I say goodbye forever.
After a couple of days of being in a coma, I was feeling more awake. I could hear my parents talking, actually more like

“Kate I’ve made some big mistakes in life, and its better if I leave now then have to be forced out. I love you and Bella and this is why I’m leaving, you guys need to be a family I’m tearing you apart from that,” said John.
“I can’t tell you that leaving your child is a bad thing you should know that, but giving up on all you have worked towards. You gave up on me our life, “said Kate.
Ka… my dad started to say as my mom walked away with tears down her cheeks. As I’m thinking in my head, why didn’t he tell her the real reason he was leaving. I NEVER want to see my dad’s face again, he gave up on our family then minute he met that girl.
BEEP BEEP, the machine is going off. My eyes shoot open as I start wheezing, the doctors are running in trying to keep me alive. When they get me to calm down turns out I was having an anxiety attack. It was from when my dad and mom fighting. As soon I was feeling better than I was before they started giving me more to eat.

It rang three times before my mom answered.…
