“Can I… See him?” I asked. At that moment, I was ready to even die if I get a chance to see my Jake and kiss his handsome face for one last time.
“I am sorry, Sarah… Only the family members and I are allowed.” Luke said.
“You saw him?” I asked.
“Yes…”
For the first time in my life, I felt jealous… I envy Luke because he got to see my Jake, but I didn’t get that chance.
“His dad is going to take him to Central Hospital…” Luke then said.
“What? But he is in a coma. Is it okay to move him that far?” Shane asked, confusedly.
“He discussed with doctors. It is possible to move him under heavy supervision of the specialists.” Luke said.
“When is he going to move him?” Shane asked.
Thank God, I have this twin brother in my life. He asks all the questions that come to my mind as he reads me.
“Within a few hours…” Luke said casually.
“Within a few hours!!!” I exclaimed. That means he is being taken away from me within a few hours… Even now, I don’t get to see him, but at least he is there a few meters away from me. But after a few hours, he will be hundreds of miles away from me… “Yes… He has given the orders to arrange everything to shift him.”Luke said.
“Don’t be sad, Sarah… If they can shift him there, that is the best thing. He can get all the specialized treatments without any delay.” Shane tried to convince me.
I know that, but how can I make up my mind when he is that far away from me? I don’t think I will be even able to breathe properly…
“Guys, I have to go now. I have to arrange a few things. I will call you.” Luke said in a hurry, and he left us.
We both started at the way Luke disappeared. Luke seemed so different. Reasonably, he is sad and frustrated because the person he loves more than his life is fighting with his life. But I felt something more from his behavior. I felt like he is in angry with me. I also felt like he hates me.
Well… He has all the right to be angry with me and hates me.
Shane and I stayed at the hospital until they move Jake. But we didn’t get any chance to see him.
After came home, I directly went to my room, totally ignoring my parents, who were staying in the living room all confused.
I was in the same outfit I wore yesterday evening to welcome my babe… But I didn’t have any need to get a shower and change clothing. I dropped down to my bed… I was exhausted both physically and mentally. Anyway, mental exhaustion was worst than the physical one.
Can there be any other girl who suffers more than me? When I come so close to get some happiness in my life, something always comes up. If someone else told me that they had faced this much troubles in their lives, I don’t even believe them. My whole life feels like a drama with neverending problems… God was so generous when he gives unluckiness to my life.
I was lost in my own thoughts when someone knocked at my door.
“Sarah…”Shane’s voice raised.
“Hmm…” I said.
He opened the door and entered.
“You still in the same outfit? Get up now,” he said.
I didn’t say anything. I didn’t change the way I was lying down.
“Sarah… Get up now…” then he said, raising the volume of his voice.
“I don’t want to getup, Shane. Please let me be like this…” I said, turning my face away from him.
“?***t, get up and get ready. We have to leave soon.” he then came to me and pulled me from my hand.
“Leave… Where?” I asked confusedly.
“To where they took your fiance,” Shane said.
“What!”I sat on the bed automatically. We are going there… How… It is too far…
“I asked Luke to arrange a place for us to stay,” he replied indifferently.
“Are we really going there? But that is too far, and what are we gonna do there? Also, how long are we gonna stay?” I asked excitedly. Even the idea that I am going near my babe made me feel a lot better.
“Yes, we are really going there. Indeed it is too far, and we don’t have a helicopter as they do, but I will drive you there in my poor car. We are going to stay in the central hospital, close to Jake as we are allowed to. We are going to stay there until you want to come back…” Shane said.
I should have so many other things to ask if I thought rationally at that moment. I should have asked how are we going to bear all the expenses. I should have asked about the training session Shane has tomorrow. I should ask what are we going to do about our lectures. But at that moment, I was not feeling logical at all. So I didn’t ask any of those questions. I was just excited like a little girl who was promised to be taken to the park by her parents.
I hugged Shane as tightly as I could…
What we are going to do now is stupid… But I am so happy that I have a brother who does this stupid thing with me to make me feel better.
“I love you so damn much, Shane!!!” I whispered.
***********
Shane got permission from our dad to go there. He said Luke, he and I are going to stay in the hospital for some time as we are the closest friends Jake has. Dad didn’t try to dig into anything. He just let us go. Even mom didn’t try to say anything. I think they both have felt something pretty big has happened, and I think they have understood Jake is close to Shane and me more than they know.
After a 6 hours drive, we reached Central hospital. We met Luke there. Luke has arranged a small apartment close to the hospital.
Shane and I sat in the corridor that leads to the ICU where they keep my Jake. That is the maximum we could go to. We stayed there for a few hours, and I wanted to use the washroom. So, leaving Sahne there, I went to the washroom.
When I was coming out of the washroom, a woman came to me.
“Sarah Anderson…” she said, looking right into my eyes.
“Yes…” I said, trying to recall who she is.
“I am Sargent Watson.” She said, showing me her ID.
I looked at her confusedly. What a policewoman has to do with me?
“Please follow me, Miss Anderson…” she said.
“Why? Why Should I follow you…” I asked, both confused and scared.
