I thought hard and tried to remember what happened last week.

Jeffrey looked at Mrs. Rivero.

I tilted my head and thought even harder, trying to ignore the hammering pain. Then, everything came - what happened? I shivered.

"That was last week?" I asked.

"Yeah."

Then I asked, "Where am I?"

"We are in the city's best hospital." Mrs. Rivero said and grinned.

"Does my family know about this?" I exclaimed.

Mrs. Rivero frowned and said, "No," My parents probably think I am perfectly fine, right now.

I shook my head, Why would I be thinking about them, when they made me do this?

"Can I be excused, I am very tired and I want to rest." I asked.

"Sure honey," Mrs. Rivero said right away and she walked to the door.

"Sleep tight. Ring the bell if you need me." she said and walked out the door.

I stared at the ceiling and blinked for a few moments.

Why wouldn't the pain go away?

I asked. I massaged my temple, but it was hard every second I touched it. I lay there on the bed, just staring at the ceiling before my eyelids dropped.

The next time I woke up feeling like my head was banged on the wall a thousand of times. I could feel the world spinning and my heart beat fast for no reason.

Beep, beep . . . beep, beep . . . beep, beep . . . beep, beep

I focused my eyes to open, but the brightness of the world was too bright, so I closed my eyes again. I opened them again, trying to let my eyes adjust. It was a bright, morning. I squinted at the window, which I could hardly see because my head hurt every time I moved.

Beep, beep . . . beep, beep . . . beep, beep

I angled my eye so I could look around the room. The room had a lot more machines than last time.

My head spun again. I felt like I wanted to pull out all of the wires to stop the beeping. It was annoying and it was making my head spin more.

Then I heard footsteps coming and soft whispering outside in the hallway.

I angled my eyes to look at the door and it was 100% closed. I didn't know how I could hear all of the whisperings, but

I just could. It just came to me like it was natural. "- was weird. Honey, she was acting up 3 days ago. She started growing her long nails." a high-pitched voice said and I knew it was Mrs. Rivero's voice.

"Did you locked the door and kept this room safe? You know other people can't see this, especially the nurses." another voice said, I knew it was Jeffrey's.

"Yes, everything is under control, let's check on her." said Mrs. Rivero. The door clicked open and it reviewed Mrs. Rivero and Jeffrey.

Jeffrey looked like he had never slept for ages. He got big bags under his eyes and his eyes looked dull and it looked like he wanted to sleep. Mrs. Rivero on the other hand looked like Miss Sunshine.

"Ahh, Jade Louise, how's everything?" Mrs. Rivero said and sat beside me to grab a cup of water for me. She pushed it to my lips and I drank thirstily. I pulled away when I was done and she put it down. She made the bed into a sitting pose.

I looked down at my fingernails and knew that they were talking about me. Did I act up and my nails grew longer???? I thought and swallowed.

"Jade Louise, what's wrong? Why are you looking at your nail like full of disgust? Your nails are beautiful." Mrs. Rivero asked and gently took my hand and patted it.

"Was I the one that you guys were talking about?" I asked. Mrs. Rivero stared at me for a moment.

"What do you mean, honey?" Mrs. Rivero asked and put a smile on her face. I could tell it is a fake smile.

"You were talking about me in the hallway, didn't you?" I asked.

Mrs. Rivero turned pale and said, "You heard everything?"

I nodded and asked, "I was the one acting up??? And I was the one growing long nails?"

" . . . Yes." Mrs. Rivero said, "Because right now you are a full werewolf. You have gone through the steps; acting up, growing longer nails, growing you canines and having silver eyes."

"Silver eyes?" I asked.

Mrs. Rivero nodded and she quickly rambled through her purse and grabbed a mirror. She showed me her mirror and I stared at my reflection. She wasn't lying, I do have silver eyes, but they quickly went away.

"And because of the result, you concussion is healed. It wasn't major, good thing we could save you just in time before anything serious happens." Mrs. Rivero said.

"Dad also said that you could be leaving soon. You could spend one more day in the hospital or you could leave in an hour, ones they did all of the extra check - up." Jason said and looked like he was about to yawn.

"Wait, before you do anything, here. Here, eat these medicines. I know your head still hurts right now. Just eat it and it would be fine." Mrs. Rivero said. I shoved the pill in my mouth; I would do anything to get rid of the pain. I threw a bucket of water in my mouth and I instantly felt better.

I deeply breathe in and my mind clearly. I never felt so good in a long time. "One question, how long was I in the hospital?"

"For about 1 month and a half." Mrs. Rivero said.

I was about to make a reaction, but instead, I asked, "Can I leave today?" I wanted to get away from all of the ping and beep.

"Sure, I would tell them to do your leaving check - up." Mrs. Rivero said.

"I'll do." Jeffrey said and walked out of the room.

Mrs. Rivero giggled, "You don't know how much he wants you wake and snuggle next to up."

I blushed like the reddest tomatoes on Earth. I wanted to protest that we don't sleep together when she interrupted me.
