Mute: A Short Story
Mute “Deeeeeeeep” The heart minder screamed letting me know that cancer was winning “DOCTOR” I screamed at the top of my lungs. I took one last gazes into my sister's eyes as the nurse pushed me out the room and all I witness was defeat and surrender. “ Myasia I'm sorry, I love you” she battled to pronounce. “ Taj don't talk like that, I'm not letting you go… I can't” I replied bursting into tears and pushing through the nurse into my sister's arms . “Myasia listen, y-you can never t-talk…”. She whispered, then her eyes seal. At that very moment I lost my best friend, my sister, and the only thing I had left on this Earth was gone.”Miss you have to go” the nurse demanded, but it was too late, she was gone, she left me. I beamed them …show more content…
I briskly ate my breakfast, then left for school. As I stroll to 7th period my classmates stared“she was just in 2nd period looking at the wall like a weirdo”, “ Her breath probody stink that's why she not saying anything” two girls conversed about me. I just turned my head and started to English 3. “ Umm Miss. Mosley to my office” the principal called for me, I curiously followed her to her office and sat in front of her junkie yet organized desk.” Me and some of your other teachers have been worried about you” she voiced sounding concern. I avoided making eye contact with her, just reminiscing on my sister's final request.”Myasia listen you don't have to talk to me but talk to someone” she suggested. I gave her one last one smile and walked out her …show more content…

    I'm six years old, and I'm secretly watching the girls in my class loudly chatting in the corner of the classroom. It's 2008, and I'm quietly sitting on my desk, wondering to myself: "Am I not important enough for a simple goodbye?". I nervously shift on the chair, impatiently waiting for the minutes to tick by. My red sweater is itching against my throat. The teacher came in and we begin class as usual. Ms. Claudia is talking about our final reflections…

    The steam from his drink coated his glasses, and behind the mug I could see a toothless smile and a dark shiny grey beard. He gestured for my dad and I to come in. I stepped my way up into the overcrowded room full of mustard yellow couches. Not only did the place looked run down, and about to fall apart but, the place smelled like the worst mixture of rotten foods you could imagine. My dad and I’s facial expressions to each other said it all about this place. Once we had found our way, we filled out some application forms. During the process, I stood beside my dad, searching to find another girl taking the class. I looked forever only to find that there were no other girls…

    The problem begins with public perception. Buresh & Gordon point out a fundamental disconnect. The public trusts and respects nurses as caregivers but does not understand the professional standard or practice of nursing (Buresh & Gordon, 2006). Buresh & Gordon movingly quote Joan Lynaugh, nurse historian, “Most people know they can’t get into a hospital without a doctor. What they don’t know is…

    “Native American Indians actually migrated to the American continent from Asia.” “Before Maori waded to New Zealand, they had lived on mountains in Taiwan.” Students often times heard these theories in their history classes and had a hard time to believe those, but, in fact, the history of human migration is just as long as the history of mankind, and the most common reason behind migrating is for seeking a more suitable environment. Human beings, as living creature themselves, are fully aware of what living environment is able to influence their lives in a very early period. Without a doubt, 10,000 years ago, migrating from one continent to another might need the effort of few generations of human beings. As modern transportations had been…

    Before I could even comprehend, my aunt was convulsing, with eyes rolled back and foam forming at the mouth. Hurriedly, my mom pulled her out of her wheelchair and rolled her on her left side. When the paramedics arrived, it felt like the universe was in slow motion. Voices seemed a million miles away, like soft echoes ricocheting off ragged cave walls. I was infinitely in shock; I could not process my surroundings. Mom rode in the ambulance, while I rode in Grandma Vita’s car. This moment would be the last time I saw Aunt Dori until tomorrow. The hospital was abnormally clean. Some rooms emitted no sound, however, others squealed well into the night. I never in truth noticed patients. Windows and cemented columns at every turn. The air conditioner was blasting from all angles. The doctors came by and solemnly murmured they desired to speak with my mother in private. Their eyes said to leave. Furious, I stomped off to the visitor waiting area. I may have appeared enraged on the outside, but it was all a charade. On the inside I was panic-stricken and somber. What was wrong with Aunt Dori? Why could I not attain answers? Mom returned with a pained expression on her face as the doctors calmly strode away. I recall her breaking the news to me sighing, “Do not worry, sweetheart. Everything is going to be fine.” She relayed the information from the doctors frankly, holding nothing back.…

    My anxiety flutted around in my chest and gripped each breath like a vice. The daunting and steep steps danced in my mind making the simple task of walking up stairs more difficult than the impossible task to run a mile in a minute. Next, a boy pushed the door open behind him almost as an afterthought, but in my chaotic mind it was the best thing all morning to happen. On the dreadful first day of school, chivalry was not dead, or at least that’s how I was able to comprehend his actions. I glanced around unsurely before starting to slowly walk towards the freshman commons; each eye that meets mine screamed enthusiasm.…

    My heart raced from the ridiculous amount of coffee I had consumed that morning. I tentatively stepped into the dark, empty classroom and took a seat in the second row. As an English major, I resented the fact that I was required to take US History 201. I disliked history, and I heard rumors that my professor, Dr. Grimm, was a tough grader. The only contingent that caused me to feel slightly happy was the fact that I would be in the same class as Hannah Colasurdo, my longtime best friend. I had known Hannah since I was ten years old, and she had been there for me though my best and worst moments. Little did I know that this history class would cause me to fall to one of the lowest points of my entire life.…

    It was a sleepy summer’s day and all I could think about was getting home and relaxing. The sun was gleaming down on us and glistened in our eyes as it reflected through all the droplets of water hanging off the shade cloth. The end of lunch bell finally rang and we all trudged to the lockers to get our books for fifth period. Food Technology. I only chose that subject because it was a bludge. And I guess everyone else there had the same idea as me, because they didn’t seem all that bright. We all sat down and Miss Kemp had that familiar look of sadness in her eyes when she saw it was us that she had to teach. The sky turned two shades darker as clouds began to blanket the sky. I sat up the back in my usual seat next to a quiet girl, like me. The group of trouble makers sat to the left of us and the girls who actually wanted to learn how much flour was needed to bake a cake sat up the front. To the left sat the stoners, staring straight out the window, not touching their books for the whole lesion.…

    In a black Nissan car a girl and her mom sat, supposedly talking, “Mom, I’m going to make a fool of myself, can’t I just go to my old school?” I pleaded my mom. “Don’t say that you’re going to make lots of new friends. Just try in out” my mom replied to my pleading. I had come to west middle after going to a private school for six years and I was very nervous.…

    I stood in front of the mirror, gazing at my reflection through tears. They are always like this I thought. Violent. What did I ever do to them? I rarely talked to them. Yet, they always picked on me. Well, ‘picked on’ is an understatement. They mocked me, taunted me, hurt me. Even now my left eye was swelling up. I washed the gross cafeteria food out of my hair and splashed my face with water. Did my teachers care? No. Did the principal care? No.…
