A Less Than Pleasent Ride
“Get outta my f**kng face!” he shouted.
Get out of your face? You bumped into me… that’s why I’m wearing my pint!
“Sorry… I didn’t see you!” I try to apologise.
“F**king invisible am I? Just a f**king mug not worth noticing, huh?” he scalds as his push knocks me back into the bar. My mind seems to jump at the same time as my heart misses a beat and my lungs forget to breathe.
I didn’t do anything?
“I di… di.. di… d… “ my stuttering is interrupted by his palm slapping into my cheek.
I didn’t…
“You di, di, di.. did what? F**king mug!” He mocks as he palms my face again. I’m trying to get away, almost clambering over the bar. Everything’s muffled… like being underwater at the swimming pool… I can hear the voices around me, but the faces are blurred… in fact the voices are blurred too… it’s like being on a ride at the fair ground.
I don’t like this ride. I want to get off. Someone please tell the man I want to get off!
My body jerks forward as a numb sickening pain creeps up from my groin and spreads up into the pit of my stomach.
The ride just got faster… the faces are even more blurred.
*SMASH*
Something just smashed? Sounded like it happened outside? My head hurts! The rides slowing… I can see the floor!
*THUD*
The ride’s slowing but it’s getting bumpy now. Someone’s taping in the distance and it’s in time with bumps. I wonder if they want the ride to stop as much as I do. Perhaps they’re enjoying it?
As the ride stops I notice that the worlds all on its side.
Funny, don’t remember the walls being like this… kinda carpeted! Wow, there’s a guy walking on the wall… Cool! Addias trainers, I like Addias! His got blood all over his trainers, I bet he's not happy! My mouth is all metallically tasting. There’s something sticky in my eyes. Feeling real tired. Maybe if I curl up a bit tighter I’ll go to sleep quicker?
There’s a bright blur shining in my eyes and everything is loud.
Close the curtains and turn down the racket… I don’t want to get up yet!
“You alright there mate? Can you hear me?”
Please just let me sleep…
“Right on three we’ll get him onto the stretcher. One… Two… Three!”
Wow… The worlds moving again must be on another ride… I prefer this ride, much slower than the other one. Hey, there’s Kevin “Kev, you’ve got to try this mate its great!”
“OK, shut the doors! Try to stop the bleeding!”
There’s loud siren going off in the background.
Could someone shut that noise up… I’m trying to sleep. I’m so tired!
