Everything has Changed (Chapter seven)

Everything was back to normal again. People were back to hanging out with their own groups, not bothered with anyone else anymore. It was just during the dance that everyone was all bonding together. Jason and Zoe were nowhere to be seen, which was kind of, pretty obvious.
"Hey Anne!"
"Heyy.."
"Anne," Ryan said looking at me with seriousness, "Whats wrong?"
"Nothing. I'm fine. Whats up?"
"Geez Anne. I know you too well. You're upset about Jason, aren't you? Forget the-"
"Ryan. Please. I dont wanna hear his name...like how can he even do that. Like now we cant even expect anything from anyone anymore. Aren't you feeling bad what Zoe did?" I said turning to him finally.
"Yeah, Ofcourse I do feel bad but that doesnt mean you just shut yourself up like that. Maybe it wasnt meant to be and you didnt you actually enjoy yesterday, i mean I surely did! Just because they ditched us, doesnt mean we have to feel bad about it. We enjoyed anyway so CHEER UP ANNE!"
"OH my god. YOu trying to be all serious..already cracking me up! Fine. lets head to class."

Lunch Break

Phone rings..

"Hello..mom? is everything okay?"
"Hello. Annebelle? This is not your mother. Please come to St. Joseph Hospital right away, your mother just got into an accident. I have already informed your father. Please come right away."
"what..."
"Anne? hey? whats wrong?" and then he took my phone and asked who that person was. She was the nurse of that hospital. I just couldn't move. I felt numb and completely lost. Somehow Ryan managed to get me there to the hospital.
"Hey. Excuse me? Can you please tell us in which room Ms. Montgomery is admitted in?"
"Room 25. Too the right please."
"Thankyou," said Ryan and we ran to Room 25.
After An hour or so.
"You are Ms. Montgomery's family?"
"Yes Doctor. How is she? what happened?"
"She is better now.  Her blood pressure was too high so it lead to a major migraine so while she was driving she lost her balance and led to an accident. She doesnt have any major injuries though she had some stiches. Her blood pressure is normal now and she can go home today itself. There should be someone who needs to look after her though. So i believe you are his husband and you two are the children?"
"Oh no no doctor. Annebelle is Ms. Montgomery's daughter. I'm just Annebelle's friend."
"Okay doctor. I will take care of, umm, my w-wife. Can we go meet her?"
"Yes. Yes ofcourse. I'll send the nurse to get you the list of some medications your wife needs to take."
"Okay, thankyou so much doctor." I could not believe my ears that my dad was basically lying to the doctor about mom. They are divorced! How can he say shes his wife when they are practically not together anymore. I gave that glare to my dad but he acted like he didn't see it and then he went inside to meet her.
"Its gonna be all right Anne. Dont worry. Everything will be okay." and Ryan had his hand around my shoulder.

 Later that evening.

Mom was in dad's apartment. I couldn't bear the fact that he lied to the doctor, if he was going to lie like that why did he and mom had a divorce in the first place? I just dont get why they are trying to make things more complicated. I couldnt argue with dad right now as mom is still not well. I helped her get inside the room and then she fell asleep. I didnt bother to look at my dad, just went straight to my room and locked the door.

"Yo loser. help me man."  I messaged Ryan on facebook.
"yeah calling me loser and asking for help. How nice of you Anne."
"You know me. Dude, I swear what is going on in my life. ugh."
"Anne, stop overreacting. Ups and downs are part of life. I know you're strong and you can handle this, and if you cant, Ill help you handle them, k?"
"Aww Ryan. why are you being too nice? hmm something fishy going on huh?"
"Yup. totally."
"alright buddy. My brain is drained with too much drama. see ya tomorrow."
"alright. see ya. :)"
