3 Broken wings

"I can't stand up Nat." I said looking at my legs.

"I can't." I began tearing up. This wasn't supposed to happen. I wasn't supposed to be in the hospital, and I was supposed to be able to walk. Natalie looked at me in with her eyes filled with fear,

"Hey Doc," she said laughing historically,

"DOC!" A tall man came walking into the room wearing a white lab coat and black shoes.

"Why can't she walk?" She said laughing.

He looked at us both in the eyes, and took Natalie under his arm and walked her out of the room.

"I'm sorry" I heard him say. What was he sorry about? Why was he sorry? Is there something wrong with me? I started crying and crying hard. I couldn't do this, I just got back from a business trip and was supposed to celebrate my twenty sixth birthday. Not be stuck in a hospital unable to walk.

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. It's ok, i though, I'm going to make it. When I opened my eyes It was dark, and then I saw a bright light. Headlights.
