Delusional Jane Episode 13
Remember when I said I was going to allow the future to decide how chaotic my life choices would be? Yes, I did.“I got it!” I said, staring into my laptop that rainy afternoon. I had finally gotten to my house. I wasn’t in the mood to interact with anybody. “Eeww what happened to you?” I jammed my sister in the lobby. Of course, I completely ignored her. However, I shot her a very stern stare before I opened the door to my room and shut it behind me. “Weirdo,” I could hear her curse me from outside my door. I dropped the bag I was carrying like I was helpless and slid down my door with my face cupped in my hands. I couldn’t let tears stream down my face again because I was really cold and I cried all through the walk home. I was shivering yet I really couldn’t do much about it because the pain I felt in my heart surpassed all kinds of feelings. “Jane, are you okay?” I could hear my mom knock on my door from outside. I immediately got alarmed and shot up from the ground where I sat,

……………I opened my eyes slowly and everything was hazy and blurry. My head was banging with a serious headache and my tongue was really dry, I was so thirsty. I tried moving my fingers and I had no idea if they moved because so much pain and discomfort shot through my body like an electric shock.“Doctor! She’s awake!” I heard a voice shout from the background and I tried looking around to see where I was. I was in a hospital. “Doctor? What the fuck happened?” I muttered under my breath. I tried getting up and sitting up slowly on the bed but I was in so much pain and I was really thirsty so I decided to wait for whomever to get to my theatre.“Hi, Mrs Jane,” the doctor said, excitement beaming in his voice and I slowly turned my neck to the left side of the bed where he stood. I carefully opened my eyes to look at his face and my vision was finally clearing up.“Hi, can I get some water?” I said in a raspy voice and the doctor ordered a nurse to get some clean drinking water for me. “T

“Thank you,” I said to the doctor then went ahead to stare into an empty space. I had tried so hard to remember but how was I supposed to remember what I never knew existed? It was a whirlwind of emotions for me. The doctor sent the nurses to get my family. So after all this time, I’m finally married to Rick? How? How did that happen? How’s this even possible?I questioned myself in so many ways more than one because the last thing I remembered was preparing for an exam in France so I could get in and be close to Rick. Did that actually work? Did I pull that off? How did it all happen? Poof! It was gone from my memory like it was never there.“Here’s some aspirin,” the doctor handed me the pill alongside a glass of water and I accepted it with a smile. Rarely had I seen doctors who were so nice and so handsome at the same time. If I didn’t know better, I’d say that doctor was hitting on me. But I would blame that insane thought on my health condition.“When will they get here? I’ve be

I got out of the bathroom and took one last look at myself in the mirror. Everything felt so unreal. Then my head started to hurt. I started to remember things slowly like a movie.“Ahh,” I screamed touching my head. I noticed the nurse rushed in to help me. At that point, I already lay on the ground trying my best to get up but my head hurt so bad. While the nurse was trying to help me, I tried to get away from her grip“Leave me alone!” I yelled but she kept trying to subdue me until I felt a very sharp but quick pain at the side of my hand and then my eyes felt heavy and drowsy instantly. Then I met darkness.……………..Now, back to my teenage life.“Mother! Guess what?” I hopped excitedly to the kitchen where my mother was. You must be wondering why that seems to be the only scenery where I can speak to her. Well, it’s because my mother was a good cook in her days and loved to spend most of her time in the kitchen.She often cooked for big organizations and charity so she was always

I stared at my empty phone. I sat opposite it and spoke to it like I would a friend. Of course, it didn’t reply back, what was I thinking? Every beep and every slightest sound the phone would make made me jump up and open the phone in anticipation. What was I anticipating you may ask? I left Rick dozens and dozens of calls he was supposed to have returned but he didn’t return any. I even told him I was on the verge of dying but he still ignored me. How heartless could he be? Or maybe he knew I was definitely lying. Somebody tell me why I was sitting there and anticipating a call from somebody I knew wasn’t going to call me back. Speak of boredom. “Jane we’re going to be late!” My sister often yelled at my door just to get me to come out and go to the counselor. Oh, how I despised going to meet her. My mother never failed to meet her every month to update her on our life and get the best advice from her. She started doing that ever since my father died.She noticed she started making

“But mother, that’s my recent development at least for now. Or what did you want me to say to her?”What my mother did next, shocked me till this very day.She whacked me so hard across my face that left me seeing little stars. “Mom!” I yelled, holding my face with my left palm.“You don’t come in here and disrespect anyone like that, we’re all older than you and I didn’t teach you how to be disrespectful!” She yelled and I already had tears welling up in my eyes and anger filling my chest. I knew I had to leave.My flight to France wasn’t until two weeks and I planned to go to my best friend's place to stay till it was time for me to leave. I was tired of the toxic situation at home and extremely tired of having my mother over my neck at my decision that would affect my future, not hers.……………….“Jeez, are you okay?” I heard a voice as I slowly opened my eyes. My vision was blurry again and I looked around, noticing that I was still in the hospital, I groaned inwardly.“Get me out of

“You are here but this isn’t you. You’re half here and half of you is gone,” she said and it absolutely broke my heart.“When will I see Rick?”……………..“You’ll see him soon,” she responded and I nodded. I was waiting patiently, anticipating his arrival. I wondered how he looked now. I wondered if he still hated me or how we would react when we see each other. Well, my sister did say that we were on the verge of a divorce so I didn’t expect a nice, warm welcome either.“When will he be here? I mean, I’m so anxious to meet him,” I tucked my hair behind my ears and moved my hands slowly to my chest, my heart rate had increased and so has my breathing.“I’m right here baby,” I heard a voice coming from the door, I shifted my gaze from my sister to the door, and oh my days. “Rick?” I muttered to myself, moving my hands to my lips, I noticed they were chapped and dried. I tried adjusting myself to make sure I looked presentable to him but I already knew that no matter what I tried, I still

“I will not say a word about this until I have proof,” I said, folding my hands over my chest. She glared at me for a while before speaking.“I will show you proof.”………..“Here, look at that,” she said handing me her phone after she had been scrolling through for a couple of minutes. I wondered what it was she wanted to show me.I gasped when I saw the picture before me. It was a picture of my swollen and beaten-up face. I swiped and I saw more pictures and videos of different parts of my body where I had been bruised. Soon, my memory drifted back to when I was in the bathroom earlier that day. I did see some marks that I never noticed on my body. Little did I know that it was my husband who gave me those marks.I was stubborn, I still refused to believe because I loved him and needed him in my life. Or so I thought. “Trust me, Jane, you don’t want anything to do with that man,” my sister tried to convince but I obviously turned deaf ears. “I believe our marriage can still work,” I s
