She was surprised at first at the fact that she was getting a call, when the caller ID had popped up with Laura name a glee look had creeped over Tonia.
At that moment she was filled with uncertainty on if to pick or just let things slide, she was unaware of what to do or if she should just act like she hadn’t seen the call.
Still there was that bit of conviction in her heart implying that she did pick up her call, a smirk crawled up her face, as she walked back to the two people sitting close to where she was looking up at her.
Antonia motioned to them that she was going to take a minute before picking.
“Why are you calling, though you had him to yourself. .”She spoke quickly, waking out on the terrace.
Images played out again at the back of her mind and this time she couldn’t help it , all she did was stand still in silence reminiscing the moment she had walked out.
The smile seemed to fade away as she stared up to the sky, shouldn’t time heal the deepest wounds… she thought to herself why wondering what was happening, while wondering why she felt so much pain.
She squeezed her hand-
“So why are you calling?”
Immediately she heard what the call was about. Her heart sank, she couldn’t understand why but she still felt a much deeper pain.
“You are joking right?”She questioned. As she did, tears trickled down her eyes .
“Are you sure of what you are talking about? “she dropped her cup and threw out the question.
She could sense the silence from the other end, she rolled his eyes.”Hello?”She called out.
The call buzzes and fades away.
“Is everything fine?”Her other partners asked.
She thought of making another call but it wasn’t connecting, she was acting all my heretical now with the need to reach him.
Still with that bit of uncertainty in her eyes she paces the room.
“I think I have to travel home … she muttered
Back at the hospital…
All that had filled the room was hush silence, they listened to the sound of the BCG , he was still lying there motionless and it was looking less likely that there was something that could be done.
She shared a look with the man that was standing opposite Where she was, as it turned out at the moment anything could happen, it left behind that sense of unease that looked to drift slowly In the atmosphere.
“Is she coming?”Riley asks, breaking the silence.
“Yes I think she is.”
It had been twenty minutes since they had arrived back at the hospital and that was because Laura wouldn’t stay at home.
Right after she had gotten the twins to her parents she had headed out again. .
From the corner of her eyes he could see Damien say a silent prayer, she had never seen him look so broken as he did at that moment and it broke her.
“He will get better. I can feel it .”It was Damien speaking trying to calm the situation.
In her heart Laura shut her eyes and said a silent prayer, she wanted out of this Storm, she really did-
******
It was morning and she had to send the two people with her on their way without having to bear the heavy weight of dark possibilities all to herself.
She looked at the door again, her mind weighed between what she had said on the call and the possibility that she might show up.
She needed Antonia too, the fact that she hadn’t called back after the call had made me lose hope.
What more could be done?
The moment was distracting after they had left and the big blank space left at the back of her mind by the event was filled again with thoughts of how she’d live her life if he died.
No matter how much she tried to take it off her she Couldn’t – The sequence of the entire situation was drifting through and what She hated than fact that she could be the cause of all of these was Antonia nonchalant attitude.
She tried as much as possible not to listen to what her mind was saying, she made a certain point she would wait the time out.
Yet when she couldn’t take it anymore, she glanced at her watch.
“I think it is time I do something..”She muttered.
“Do what .”A voice calls from behind.
She turned and could see Antonia, she didn’t know how to react if she ran to her or stayed.
She rolled her eyes, she was tired of just standing, Antonia made the first move as both women cried while they looked to the they loved.
There was just one question at the back of Tonia’s mind and it was to know what exactly had happened, she couldn’t help that need to Know.
Laura definitely knew she had some explaining to do about how everything happened, especially down to the fact she wanted to know what had led to her being away.
It haunted her soul, she had tried calling her t I’ll apologize but it left nothing.
Her heart echoed within her – Soon the doctor stepped in as the door opened.
She calls him…
“She is here.”
“, Oh, pleased to meet you… let’s get down to business then.”He muttered.”My office?”
As they walked away from where she was, she braced her hands on the table with a disrupted feeling over her face, she let out a sigh.
“Please don’t die.”? “She muttered as she ran her fingers through her hair.
She thought I’d anything was necessary it was definitely the last thing on her mind, she had to wait it all out .
She had no choice, her gaze rested on his face again… Christian lay still there in a coma.
