SNOOPY II
I walked down the hallway counting the number of every room I walked past, I saw some of these sick people. I really felt bad for them.
"1!,2!,3!" I hopped as I walked, trying to distract myself from the fact I was going to see Marty, and I didn't know what to say to her at first.
"4!,5!,6!" Almost out of breathe, I stopped hopping and walked in slow motion making me to chuckle at my stupidity, maybe I was stupid for not apologizing to Marty in the first place.
"7!,8!,9!,10!.." I stopped and turned right as I saw Marty door standing in front of me, what will I say to her? I asked myself really nervously, I needed to rehearse.
I rushed to the restroom, and stood in front of the mirror.
" What if she doesn't want to see me?, What if she's still pissed at me?, Why didn't I say sorry? Why didn't she tell me she was sick?.
I kept asking myself, I regretted it and I felt pain in my heart, my throat tight from all the pains in my heart,I wanted to let the tears in my eyes flow out but no I was here for Marty,I shouldn't be selfish for this once, I should have said sorry, maybe everything would have been fine.
"Hey Marty! Where have you been?" I sounded so dumb, for God sake I can see she's sick.
"Hey Marty, why didn't you tell me you were sick?" Talking to myself, Now I felt so stupid, after trying to rehearse for some time I gave up.
I turned the running water off after splashing some on my face.
I guess I was ready now, well I wasn't so sure, but I didn't want to wait in the waiting room until "miss call you when the other visitor leaves" plus I couldn't stay here forever.
I pushed the door open and went back. My curiosity changed to nervousness.
I took a deep breath and relaxed a bit, I pushed the door of room 11 opened not fully, she had company and from the voices laughing,I could tell it was a male voice and was that her lover? I wanted to see him, I giggled.
"Stop teasing me" that was Marty's stressed voice. I could tell she was really sick, I felt so bad.
Marty was like a sister to me, she was always there to hold me and tell me everything was going to be fine, she loved me and for once never judged me, she never said or did something to hurt me.
I was always happy with her, and even when I told her about myself she smiled and hugged me and I felt so safe, she was just the best.
Maybe I was selfish, I knew how much she liked Armando and I still had feelings for him,oh gosh Armando was too hard to resist, I cursed under my breath.
As I allowed my thoughts to consume me,I didn't hear what the male voice said.
" But she can't find out" I heard Marty say as I turned to see if anyone was coming,but the hallway was quiet as the word silent, distracted from hearing what the voice of this male had said again.
Who was she talking about and what were they hiding from this "she", goddamnit! I wished me and Marty never had a fight.
I was frustrated, I wanted to know who it was and I didn't even know why I was listening to their conversation but I wanted to be there without being noticed.
"But she's my best friend" that was Marty's voice, what?! Best friend? I thought I was her only best friend? What were they talking about?
"I know pretty one but it's okay" a familiar voice said, I froze, my eyes wide open,my heart pounding, was that... It couldn't be.. was that Armando inside there, what is he doing here?.
My heart worried, I wanted to be sure, I wanted to see his face, I needed to understand.
Has he been dating me and seeing Marty too?, Were they playing games with me?, Was everything all a game to them?, Did everything we share all a lie?.
My heart tearing out, I was suffocating, my heart unable to accept what I couldn't figure out.
I wanted to confront them, as I pushed the door and was about to step in, I felt a hold on me, I turned to see who it was.
"I thought I said you should wait in the waiting room, didn't I?" She asked, dragging me out of the room and shutting the door quietly, I am sure they didn't notice.
"I... I... Have to go in please" I begged her but she was furious.
" No! Miss, do you want me to lose my job" she asked, eyeing me.
" Not at all" not looking at her, my eyes fixed on the door of room 11 to see if he would step out,I was pissed.
" Now do you want to sit and wait or the exit door is on the left? How about a walk?" she said so rudely.
I felt so embarrassed but was way too curious to know if it really was Armando, I stayed there for a while, waiting for that smiling rude person to say something like you can now go in but she never did.
I gave up after many hours of waiting and walked out straight to my dorm.
