Chapter 6

Elaine noticed the nurse changing the water medicine on the iron rod and a doctor approached Elaine with a smile

"Elaine do you feel pain anywhere or is your head still sore" she said while marking something on the paper.

Elaine was confused by the situation around "Why am I here" she said as she thought that this was not her family's act of keeping her in the hospital.

The doctor said "Your family saw you lying in the room and they brought you here". Elaine was not satisfied, She asked the doctor again

"I was sick for a while but why do I have to stay in the hospital".

"Because we found out you have depression as well as PTSD in addition to an old illness so your family allowed you to get treatment here, They are worried about you". said the doctor

Elaine was silent when she heard it.

...

...

The sunlight and the sound of friends disturbed Elaine's sleep, she opened her eyes and saw her friends busy wearing makeup and choosing beautiful clothes.

"Elaine wake up, in a moment we need to go to the hall to listen to the Semester opening briefing for new students like us"

Elaine got up and went to take a shower and she wore a long -sleeved young purple shirt and a long white skirt and enriched her hair like a barbie with simple makeup and a long purple bag with a long strap. Her friends was shocked to see Elaine so good at enriching herself.

"Elaine you look very beautiful compared to us,

a lot of guys must like her after this" said Lili.

Elaine took the bag and said "Love is not in my life because I have sworn" she went out first to wait for her friends outside the room. Everyone in that room didn't understand what Elaine meant but they didn't care very much, they went to the hall together.

Elaine and her friend sat in a chair "Elaine why are you wearing a mask are you sick" said Ziana worriedly. "I'm not sick, I just don't like people looking at me so I'm used to wearing a mask to calm me down" Elaine replied in a low tone to relieve her friend's worries.

While the talk was going on, some students were sleepy probably because they were bored when listening and some were playing the phone and when the talk was over, A handsome senior man wearing a brown t -shirt and black pants came to give words of encouragement to the new students and Elaine was surprised when many female students cheered probably because the senior was handsome.

"His name is Darren a handsome, kind and smart senior at the university and he is in 2nd place in the popular men's poll at the University" she said as she opened the plastic lollipop.

Elaine and the others listened intently and nodded understandingly.

"So who gets number 1" Lili asked Alisa. Alisa was surprised to see everyone waiting for an answer from her "That I don't know and do you all think I'm the type who likes to look at handsome men?" she said proudly. All nodded while Alisa got a little upset with the consent of her friend's. Elaine laughed at her friend's behavior one by one.

Elaine and her friend even left the hall and went to the canteen because they were hungry sitting in the hall for too long. Ziana put the bag on the seat next to Elaine

"Elaine you just sit here take care of our place after all what you want to eat you tell me let me buy it" said Ziana. Elaine opened the bag and took the money and gave it to Ziana after ordering food.

Elaine saw the students eating, at that moment she felt all this was a dream even though the dream she was still happy with.

While eating, Lili's routine is to take pictures of them sitting together. "Are you all ready for first class tomorrow" said Lili after finishing taking pictures. All nodded ready but Elaine worried very very much.
