Today wasn’t really the best day ever. I have successfully avoided one particular hospital for about five freakin’ years because my dad died from cancer there. Well I guess one can’t really run from that nightmare forever.
My mom has a friend that just went “under the knife” and was hospitalized there and her daughter and I are friends since early childhood so I wanted to be there for her. Because they live in another city and the main hospital is in the capital, of course, she stayed with us. Yesterday was bearable because I was waiting for her in parking lot when the visiting hours were over and we went to my place where I made a quick lunch. After that I went to the gym and got back with 2 friends and they prepared a pretty tasty dinner. Back to story… today I actually got in… and I really, and I do mean really, hate that hospital. To make my experience even worse, I was supposed to go to the 3rd floor and I kinda ended up on the second (the elevator was out of use and suddenly I forgot what numbers were). I got in the wing (on the 2nd floor) and I felt a strange chill going down my spine, it was very creepy, but I couldn’t put my finger on it… I mean yeah a hospital, something I hate but still it felt weird. I looked around and saw the reason why… the room where I saw my dad dead. I will never forget that day. It still haunts me at night. I couldn’t stop shivering. Suddenly everything just came back as a flash and I just ran out of there. I went up the floor but it was too late. The thing I feared the most came to bite me on the ass. So basically I went home as crap. I just couldn’t stand being with someone, and yet, couldn’t stand being alone. I was glad that and hour from the return home I had to go to the gym with the 2 friends I mentioned earlier. Everything was just fine. We joked around like everyday and nothing was different but I was strange. I almost never get really angry… have high threshold for tolerating jokes but today I just wanted the company. I wanted for someone to take my mind off everything that was happening earlier today but I couldn’t stand being the butt of the joke… not today. At one point I just stopped talking and put everyone on ignore, which was pretty rude because after the workout we went for pizza and my boyfriend came along. Plus it wasn’t like anyone knew what was happening to me.
Hopefully no one will take today against me and I do need to work on my social skills a little bit more from now on.
