Leroy stammered and told me

 Hi, Liam How are you? How was the operation? and everything was fast and half of it I did not understand, But I replied

" everything was fine and that the surgery had gone through successfully and I asked him how he was doing? He told me 

I'm okay" this was also a quiet and shy conversation. none of us knew what to say to each other, and Leroy was a good friend of mine, and he knew that I had a crush on him' I was a child, so I told him before my operation, that I wanted to be his girlfriend. but he saw me like his sister, I was very upset at the time because I suffer from low self-confidence, I thought to myself, Of .course, he does not want me as his girlfriend I'm fat With crooked legs, who will want me at all

, So it strengthened my negative point in me, but not for long because we remained good friends and he took care of me, so I did not take it too hard. Liron at the end of the conversation said that he would visit me. He did not know when, but he would try. I told him I understand. If he could come, I would love to see him. If not, then it was okay, too We laughed, and said goodbye and the conversation were over.

By the time the Saturday came, everyone came to see me and then he entered Leroy, And of course my cheeks flushed like a tomato and My fever is rising, the nurse came in to check me, put the thermometer in my mouth and waited until he humming. She took it out of my mouth and saw that I have a fever. My mother replied no! she doesn't and giggled, and my uncle Moshe was there next to her and answered loudly

 "We know the reason she got the heat because of the"boyfriend" and I replied, "We are not in a relationship", We are friends" with a flush in my cheeks Liron did not answer. He lowered his head in shame and everyone laughed loudly. that I wanted the earth will swallow me up, and said to myself, "What an embarrassment." I made a  face that told my uncle, Moshe, he should not talk about it anymore.

After a while, they all went and Leroy, of course, I did not want him to go. but what can I do, it was time to go home and the ride was long but I was happy he just made my day and, I did not care who came to visit me, not my uncles and aunts, I wanted only him. In a week and a half, I was hospitalized My mother knew all the people in the world, whether they were sick or the parents of the patients, the male nurses, and nurses, but I do not like that at first. First I was bedridden, and I could not really get to know people and something changed in me. I did not really talk, and I was I laughed less, I mean something changed. my mom said to me  If I am well?  I replied yes! and I nodded my head. I did not know how to explain what I have, Maybe I have some depression I think, my mother thought so too, but we did not give it any importance, Maybe because it's not so significant. I'm only 14 and it will pass.

After a week and a half of hospitalization I'm released, just thinking of returning home my depression has passed, and I finally come home. At home, my whole family on both sides of the father and mother were waiting for me with balloons and I was surprised that I had entered the door, I was so happy and there were tears in my eyes and they hugged me. Of course, my two grandmothers immediately took over and treated me like the little princess who does everything for me, and the people who know me I do not really feel comfortable, I wanted to do it myself but of course at the moment I can not move anything and nothing to do This time I need help and care of my family.

The friends and girlfriends from school came in the afternoon and almost every day, and they called and met with me and talked about school experiences and laughed at the teachers. I said sadly,

" I miss you and I wish I could be in school now"

, everyone looked at me with a strange crooked face, and said "who misses school will Bring us your plaster so we will not go back to school", Sarah said I smiled and replied "yes!, I understand "but I'm going to miss a lot of stuff, and I have not been in school for a week and  even two weeks 

and it's a little bit a brain-drained"  Vicky, looking at  with raised eyebrows as if a concrete fell  over  my head, or landed on another planet and added Liam

 " get over it besides, we bring you all the material and we will complete it for you and now the holiday season is coming to Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, and let's say you are not going to miss so much, and , your lucky that you did it at the beginning of the year, tease me and winks, we're here, and trust me you did not lose anything. and I replied with my tongue," I know I'm so lucky and added that" I have friends who understand me as well.

One day Leroy came and asked my mother if I could go out a little bit out and she answered clearly she has been at home for two weeks and needs some fresh air, Leroy shook his head and said Okay and walked into my room quickly with a big smile that suggests he is plan something I do not know I get excited and see butterflies of all colors and shouts at my  head  Leroy here? What does he do? He sits down next to me and I looks at him in an okay wired look on my face  I ask  what's up ? and repeat Leroy  answers " everything is fine" but does not hide his smile and then" he began to speak and asks" how I feel?"

and I answer what "everything is okay with you? why are you going round and round, what are? you up to? I know you, with that smile tell me!
