With You Again

~*Chapter 21*~

I looked up again with a worried expression on my face.

"But before that, I must ask. How did this happen?" He said as he adjusted his glasses.

I told him about the kidnapping and how it all started. I told him that she fell off the stairs and tumbled down. I told him that when I found her, she was bleeding.

"Hm.. I see." The doctor said as he put a worried expression on his face. "Well I have good news and bad news."

"The good news is that she's going to be fine."

"The bad news however," He paused.

"Well, she has intra-abdominal bleeding, which is a type of internal bleeding. It is located in the abdominal area or the place where the digestive organs reside in."

I remained quiet as I listened.

"When we examined her, her head was bleeding, probably from the fall. We're not sure if she would get amnesia,"

I gulped at what he was going to say next, my heart was beating faster that usual.

"The bad thing is...."

I gasped at the sudden news.

Adam's POV

It's been hours ever since Izzy was brought inside the E.R. All of us waited for her to come out already, but to no avail. All of us were getting hungry, so we went by the Hospital's cafeteria.

"Do you think she'll be out soon?" Bri asked as she played with her food using her fork.

"I hope so." Theia said as we continued eating.

All of us looked sad on the outside, but inside, we kept being positive of things. Izzy's not going to die, I know she won't. It isn't her time yet.

Suddenly, Ryan came inside the room with a deadpanned expression written all over his face. His eyes were red from crying and his eyelashes were wet. To be honest, I was the only one to notice that he still loves Izzy. All because of one quote.

'Women crying over men is normal, but if a man cries over a woman, she means more to him than anyone ever will.'

It was obvious too. How come the others didn't notice? Maybe it's because besides Izzy, I experienced heartbreak. I know more about love because of Angela and my relationship with her.

Ryan walked towards our table and sat on the vacant seat beside me.

"Any news about Izzy?" Bri asked him.

He remained silent for awhile, like he doesn't want to talk about it. All of us just shrugged and finished our food.

When we were all finished, we went back to the E.R.

Going there, it was quiet. Like, really silent. As we arrived in the E.R, Michael was there. His head in his hands, as he sat on a chair. He looked like he was crying.

"Ryan," He said under his breath. "You were the first one to know about this right?"

All of us remained silent.

Ryan's POV

I think I know what Michael's mad about.

"I'll repeat myself: You were the first one to know about this, right?" He said once more.

"Yes-"

"THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU MOTHERFUCKER!" He said as he swung his fist towards my face.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME SHE WAS IN DANGER?!" His voice was filled with anger and hate. "I COULD'VE HELPED!"

He was right. If I called him earlier, he would've been a great help. The question is.. why didn't I tell him about this? He's one of Izzy's bestfriends. Another person who cares for Izzy. Maybe I didn't... because I knew he loves her too. Maybe I didn't... because I thought he could interfere with Izzy and I.

'I'm so selfish..'

"I'm sorry." I said as I kept my expression.

Michael remained silent and took his hand off the collar of my shirt. He narrowed his eyes at me.

"What's going to happen to her?" He said as he hung his head. He glanced at Izzy, then at me. Everyone else here, stared at us.

"She's..." I paused for awhile. I had a hard time telling them. "She's..."

".....she's in a coma"
