Chapitre 35: 32. Going home
Yuree
I could not believe my ears !
" I'm sorry but he's going to what ? " I asked doctor Fishyton again just to make sure I heard correctly .
" He's going to help you bathe . " Dr Fishyton said with an amused smile .
I swallowed deeply and looked at Bee with mortification .
" Why ? " I asked softly , I needed a valid reason !
" Well , with your sling and your cast , it will be considerably hard for you to bathe by yourself . " Dr Fishyton explained , " you could dry clean yourself but that is not as hygienic and still might be equally as difficult . "
I looked at the floor and internally groaned . Bee was going to have to bathe me until I lost my sling .
Oh my gosh , that was going to be so awkward .
" Don't worry , you and Bee were already told of the proper way to keep a cast clean and this is only until your shoulder heals . " Dr Fishyton said but I didn't care about how long it would be .
I didn't know how I was going to survive the first time .
" Well , this is going be good . " Gus said with a chuckle and I glowered .
This was not funny at all . Oh my gosh , I couldn't believe this .
" Can we take him home now ? " mom asked Dr Fishyton .
It was early evening and the sun was beginning to set .
We were in my room still , mom and Gus having arrived a few minutes ago with Dr Fishyton .
" Well , he seems able and he does someone to help him ." Dr Fishyton said ," So you just have to sign his discharge papers in reception and then he's good to go . "
Mom smiled at me , " I'm glad you're finally coming home. " she said softly and I nodded my head .
I was glad too , I didn't want to stay at the hospital anymore than I could . I missed my bed and my room .
" Alright , now you should get up and use your crutch . " Dr Fishyton said pointing to the wooden crutch in my hand .
I braced myself on the bed and then put my right foot down followed slowly by my left foot .
My left leg felt sore and I doubted it could have stood on its own but my crutch gave me ample support .
" Very good . With this much vitality you'll be right as rain in weeks . " Dr Fishyton said and turned around ," Now come on . "
Mom moved to help me but Bee came up faster and put his arm around me . Mom looked on with a smile before following Gus and doctor Fishyton outside .
" Bee , you don't have to support me like this . " I said but I was smiling ruefully , " I have my crutch and I'm not invalid . "
" I know but ... I don't want you to fall . " he said in his low and hoarse voice .
" Okay fine . You can continue but when I get home you have to let me walk by myself . " I said ," Agreed ? "
" Alright Nymph , I will let you walk alone at your home but outside I will assist you ." he said and I opened my mouth to say that would be alot of work but decided against it . I wasn't going to go outside for awhile anyway .
So we walked out of the room and took the elevator down into the lobby . At the reception area mom signed my discharge papers and all the other formalities and I was finally able to go back home .
" Finally. " I said as I walked out of the hospital and looked outside .
I had only been there for a day but it was a day to many .
I never liked being indoors for too long . I liked the sun on my face and wind in my hair .
The air outside was crisp and the sky was a deep orange with a hint of magenta in its clouds . The front of the hospital was clear with a cement ground and two trees planted next to it's doors .
" We're going to get the car . You two stay here and don't go wandering around ." Mom said and Gus followed suit .
Mom didn't drive much except to work and maybe when buying groceries . Gus was her driver most of the time . He was an okay driver even when he was drunk but I always made sure to never be in the car when he was drunk .
I'd rather have walked.
But today he was not drunk , so I would be fine with going in the car .
" Nymph, do you wish to sit down ? " Bee asked me , he still had his arm around me .
I smiled and nodded my head . Standing up took some effort and I just wanted to go home and sleep .
Bee led me to one of the steps and placed me down and then sat next to me . I sat and looked around at the people walking about ;
There was a woman in a bright floral dress , a man with a walking stick , an old lady , one man in a wheelchair , a woman with a stroller and baby , a boy with brown hair and -
" Oh my gosh . " I said with apprehension and Bee looked at me but I wasn't paying attention .
I sat looking at the boy who was walking towards the hospital whilst talking to a man with glasses and moustache .
My heart was beating with a bit of fear and anger . I knew that boy , he was the reason I was in this state .
It was Steve .
" Him . " Bee said in a voice that brought me out of my own rage and I looked at him .
His eyes were dark pools of hate and his scowl showed his fury . He'd seen Steve too , and he wasn't happy .
" Bee , calm down ." I said taking his hand , " Just leave him . He's not worth it ."
I didn't know if my words were working . Bee's hand was cold and shaking , but then when I thought he would get up and charge forward in a rage , he instead looked at me and then my hand .
His head dropped down and I heard him breathed out heavily
," As you wish nymph ." he said softly and I smiled .
It wasn't that I was afraid of Steve or that I didn't dislike Steve , I did , very much . But what would I gain by hurting him , it wouldn't heal my wounds and it wouldn't make my life better .
I didn't like hurting people besides and the time I had hit Steve in the alley had been one of the very few times I had ever raised my hand to hit someone in my life .
And I wasn't someone to let my actions go completely , which is the reason I called him as he neared the steps .
" Steve . " I said as he took the second step , he hadn't noticed us and would probably have walked along with out looking at us .
But when he heard his name and saw it was me his face paled .
Or was he looking at Bee but I didn't care .
" Steve . " I called again and he looked at the man next to him before excusing himself and walking up to us .
I could tell he was afraid , there was a bit of sweat on his forehead and he was clearly biting his lip . It strangely added to his handsomeness but I was not allured .
" Steve , you're here. " I said nonchalantly , " I wanted to say sorry for hitting you ."
" You ... what ? " he asked not understanding.
" I said , I wanted to say sorry for hitting you. Although you deserved it , I don't like hitting people and I want you to know I'm sorry for that . " I said simply , I would not say it in a normal voice , my anger would not allow it .
"Well ... same here . I'm sorry for everything . " He said and I was thrown back , he could actually apologize ?
" What I did was wrong and terrible . I shouldn't have done it and I should not have used my friends to gang up on you like that . " he continued in a subdued voice , " I already talked to my friends and my parents , so it won't happen again . I'm also getting ... some therapy . "
My mind was completely confused . Who was this guy ? I thought , so subdued and humbled .
He didn't act like the cocky Casanova who approached me at lunch in the cafeteria nor was he the arrogant bastard who tried to molest me .
Seems the therapy was working and it had only been a day .
" Is that where your going ? To therapy ? " I asked and he nodded his head .
" I started yesterday , as soon as I got home I told my folks about everything that happened ." he glanced at Bee by continued ," they were mad and I went to the police along with my friends and we ... well they're all getting help too . So I'm sorry too . "
" Okay . " I said , I could not yet forgive him . The image of him pulling my hair and reaching into his pants was still too fresh in my mind . Maybe after a time I could but for now the best I could do was hear him .
" So .. can I ask ? " he said looking at me and then at Bee ," who is he ? "
The question was spoken with more than a little shudder and obviously he remembered what he had seen of Bee .
" He's right here . " I answered plainly ," ask him . "
Steve looked at Bee , who had been glaring at him since he arrived but had stopped after hearing his apology .
" Who ... are you ? " Steve asked in a squeaky voice like a mouse . He was still afraid of Bee .
" I am Bee . And you , are forgiven for hurting the nymph . But never do it again or I will end your life ."
Bee said in a solemn voice and I slightly shivered . It was the second time he said that to Steve and it gave chills .
I felt like he meant it too , but did he ?
Would he really kill someone for me ? I wondered . But it looked like Steve believed it because he swallowed and nodded his head .
" I won't , I won't . I apologized like you said I should yesterday. " he said quickly ," I won't ever do it to anyone ever again . "
Bee tilted his head and looked at me , I didn't understand what he was looking at me for until it hit me .
He wanted to know whether Steve's apology was accepted .
" I have heard you Steve , but I can't forgive yet . But I will eventually and when I do , maybe we can be friends . But I won't be friends with you if you still molest people ." I added and he shook his head .
" I won't ever do that again . I learnt my lesson . " he said in his subdued voice and I felt more curious again . What happened to him to make this change ? I wondered .
But before I could ask , mom and Gus pulled up with the car .
" Bee , come with Yuree . " Mom said and Bee quickly put his arm around me and helped me up .
" Good bye , Steve . I hope you listen well in therapy . " I said and he nodded with his head downcast. He was a broken young man but I didn't care at the moment .
Maybe I would later but not now .
I walked toward the car and with Bee's help , I sat in the back with my crutch placed on the car floor .
" Who was your friend , Yuree ? " mom asked looking at me .
" Oh , just someone I met at school . He has some issues to deal with so he's going for therapy ." I said honestly , or as honestly as I could .
Gus moved the car and we set off , I was finally going home .
