Chapter#3

I woke up with a start when I felt the straps on my body.
But this time Mark was beside me.
He was telling me something as he hurriedly removed the belts strapped across my body. He was along with 3 others and Brian who walked away as he began to unbuckle the straps .
Then, Mark and the others ran for the exit. I suddenly heard sirens.
They looked back to see if i was following but my efforts to sit upright were in vain.
The 3 others started bickering but all in whispers.
A jolt of energy passed through me . I got up quietly , all the others staring, looking quite shocked.
My head jerked in pain as I made efforts to move . I was in some loose white gown , the other were too except Mark. He was in his usual clothes, And something was quite obviously not happening according to plan. The sirens grew louder and fear and impatience filled the room.
I tried to walk but I fell onto the cold floor and this alarmed the 3.

Mark wrapped me in a tonne of sheets and they all pulled me . They didn't struggle. Only one person held me over their shoulder. I squirmed when the door opened. We seemed to be outside thus, the sudden chill .
I popped my head out of the sheets, My eyelids were heavy in pain and my head was throbbing. My arms were tired but my legs kept squirming and cramping in pain.
I could hear what this one person was saying.
"Eh,mark!this girl be hella difficult, where DA hell she come from"
"Shut up ,ball head Brent "said a girls voice.
"keep quiet Freida. Brent we can't lose her."
"you mean you can't lost her markie"said the voice who was holding me(Brent)
"This is not the time all of you"Said another more sensible boys voice
"are you kidding?"Brent bickered on .
"SHUT UP!"A girls voice from the front said.
"you don't have to play mama Jess."Brent seemed really hot headed.
"I'm sorry but at least she doesn't complain."hissed Freida
They continuously bickered for five minutes and my head kept giving out jolts of pain as one of them raised their voices.o
My brain struggled to put the words together, i kicked and said ,"QUIET, s,sstop,this nonessssense"

Every looked at me like I had committed a crime, Brent threw me down with a thud and mark held my throbbing head in his cold hands.
All i heard from their incessant bickering was
asylum,powers,strongest,stoner,bar,safe,she,she and a lot of other words my brain couldn't put together.

The sirens grew louder.

Hello! I'm still alive!!

Firstly, I am so sorry I haven't been posting for so oooh long. Almost a month. I was missing writing too. I just started school and I'm trying to get into the groove of the new grade, and tuitions. I've also been reading a lot throughout this long process. I started the Power of Five series and a few other misc Indian author books. I think we should appreciate Indian authors more. They connect with the audience like they're sitting in front of you. I even need some book suggestions so please comment your suggestions. I wanted to start on some new and exciting things, So enough of the blabbering let me get to the point!! A. Making new connections with people: I want to interview people, send them emails, to authors, important(but not soo important they won't answer my emails), to influential people, who are from India so I can know their success stories. And post them online. B. World environment day: Something related to the environment cos she totally dese...

Tulips

I saw the tulips by the meadow, A bright beautiful yellow. Dancing in the summer sun Like they were too having fun. They glowed in the sunlight, And dazzled in the moonlight They reminded me I had places to go while I lay there at midnight. It was like the light at the end of the tunnel When life was anything but humble. At breaking dawn, When it shimmered with fresh sweet dew And had a faded yellow hue It told me things about mother nature that I never knew. But soon the tulips wilted, as humans made the world tilted, I still remember those tulips swaying in the rain, something out of the ordinary, in a world so mundane. By thelazyWriter

Leave

Why can't you just leave ? Why do you take your time, I really won't grieve. Your presence is toxic, You make me feel sick You spoilt my Christmas Eve And new year too, Why can't you just leave? Why do you laugh shamelessly, When I tell you , that you live aimlessly. You still latch on to me And suck all the happiness away You've erased all my dreams and All the things I thought I could be. You threw away the keys. You thought making me a loser Would make you a winner. But it didn't make you any better. Why can't you just leave? Why do you wait for me to throw you away, And burn you ruthlessly. All you have showed me was how quickly you can dig your grave, Your one of those memories, I won't save By thelazywriter.
