Chapter Three
Dr. Lindy pressed a button the side of the board and it came to life. I stared at what looked like an ankle. “Now do আপনি see here, this is where your bone is supposed to be and this is where it is. Due to the fact that your ankle has been completely shattered আপনি will need surgery. I would like to set an appointment. When do আপনি think আপনি could do it?”
“Umm,” I stared at my “grandfather”. “Can we have some time to talk; can আপনি just give us one moment of privacy?”
“Of course, I’ll just be back in a few minutes.” She smiled down at me.
“Thanks.” She opened the door and left and immediately I turned to Gregory. “What do I do now? আপনি can’t keep pretending to be my grandfather because they are going to want consent for surgery and my insurance card.”
“Where are your real parents?”
“My dad is I have no idea where and my mom is passed out at the house due to the fact that she took some sleeping pills.”
“Hmm. Well I’ll just make up and excuse that I need to talk to your mother but that I’ll call the hospital when I have a দিন in mind.”
“That is not going to work. They are going to know something’s up.” Doctor Lindy chose that moment to come back through the door.
“Have we decided on what দিন we were thinking?”
“Well I’d like to talk to my granddaughter’s mother first before I okay the surgery. Is there any way I could get a number to call আপনি at to set up the date?” Gregory said.
“Hospital policy won’t allow that. Are আপনি not her legal guardian?”
“No. I’m just watching her for her mother.”
“Well then I would suggest আপনি call her mother and tell her to get up here right away.” Doctor Lindy practically growled.
“It’s twelve o’clock at night. My mom will probably be sleeping. I don’t think I should wake her up.”
“Look আপনি have one of two options আপনি either call your mom অথবা else I will have no choice but to turn আপনি over to CPS.”
“Carrie, why don’t আপনি call your mom, while I go talk to Doctor Lindy out in the hallway?”
“Okay.” I tried to say but my voice was shaking too bad to say much more.
“Carrie, tell me now, are আপনি being abused at home?” Doctor Lindy sounded concerned.
“No.” I quickly said. “No, my mom would never do that.”
“Are আপনি sure? If আপনি want I can tell your grandfather to step out of the room if there’s anything আপনি need to tell me.”
“No. I swear. There is no child abuse going on.” Doctor Lindy looked at me for a second, but I guess decided to take my word because she walked out of the room. I pulled my cell phone from my pocket and dialed with shaky hands. It wasn’t that I was afraid of my mother, I was just afraid of what she would say. I heard it begin to ring, but after the seventh ring I decided to hang up. Oh my god I am in so much trouble, I thought. I took a deep breath and decided to try again. This time it rang but after the fourth ring a groggy voice picked up the phone.
“Hello? Carrie, why are আপনি calling me?”
“Hi mom,” I tried to say without crying. “I’m at the hospital and I need আপনি to get down here because the doctor needs আপনি to sign some paperwork.” I heard my mother stop breathing.
“Are আপনি hurt?”
“Yes, why else would someone be at the hospital at twelve o’clock at night?’ I spouted sarcastically.
“How did আপনি get hurt?” I heard my mother close the door to her bedroom.
“Remember earlier when that moving guy stepped on my ankle?” I asked.
“No.”
“I knew আপনি would say that. Anyways he crushed my ankle.” I was so angry. How could she have not seen it? She was standing right there when it happened. I heard the front door open.
“CARRIE, WHERE THE HELL IS THE CAR?” My mother yelled.
“How else was I supposed to get to the hospital? I tried to wake আপনি up but আপনি didn’t সরানো didn’t even flinch while I tried to wake you. This is all your fault. Maybe if আপনি would pay a little আরো attention to me and আপনি stopped drugging yourself, maybe you’d know that I broke my ankle. I wouldn’t have had to drive myself if আপনি would have just প্রদত্ত a crap and woken the hell up.” I ranted and cried.
“Who the hell do আপনি think you’re talking to? I am your mother and আপনি will respect me.”
“No I won’t. আপনি don’t deserve my respect.” I hung up. I let the phone fall out of my hands and began sobbing quietly. A few মিনিট later Doctor Lindy and Gregory came back in.
“What’s wrong?” Doctor Lindy came to my side. I knew I had to lie just like I had last year.
“It’s the pain.”
“Well we have someone coming in to fit আপনি with a temporary cast for now. I’ll let the nurse know that we need some pain medicine in here.” She left the room quickly. Gregory looked over at me.
“Is she coming?” He asked with sympathy.
“She has no car to get here, but I’m sure she’ll find a way to get here.”
“Let’s hope so.” Gregory said. Doctor Lindy came back in.
“Alright we’re going to give আপনি some pretty strong pain killers, okay?”
“All right, just as long as I’m not in pain.” I ব্যক্ত meekly. I was trying so hard to control the mask in which I had put on to fool the world but I could feel it slipping with all these people who cared even though they didn’t know me and even though I acted like a brat. So why is it that my own mother couldn’t care the way these people were? They barely knew me and they were taking better care of me.
Doctor Lindy walked back into the room with two little white pills and handed them to me with a Dixie cup of water. “This should help.” She smiled down at me. I took the pills from her hand and the water and swallowed back the two pills.

War
I am weak losing strength, like losing blood
but the scene just drags on no one sees me.
I am unnoticed and as the picture fades away.
I'm covered with a touch, a healing touch.
I look at the face, the kind kind face smiling down at me.
I extend a hand but it never reaches its destination.
About this poem: I wrote it last night and its set in Afghanistan when someone's been shot and everyone's busy fighting so they don't notice him and then he sees the অ্যাঞ্জেল of death in front of him and then he dies before he can touch it.
Dedicated to the soldiers of Afghanistan.
