“Shhh. I know honey. Don’t cry. He will be alright. He had faced more brutal things than this. He will be alright.” Her father soothed her with his gentle words.
They stayed like this for some time until the doctor came back from the ICU.
“Who is the relative of the patient?” The doctor asked.
Both father and daughter stood up and Anna moved toward the doctor and said “I am his wife.”
“Hello, Mrs. Miller. I am Dr. Samuel. He has gone into cardiac arrest.” The doctor told them.
She knew that as the medics had told her on their way here but still it does shake her.
“Now I am going to be honest with you. The chances of survival in case of Cardiac arrest is very low.
Around 10 or less than it. It’s good that the patient was rushed here quickly. Had it been 2 minutes late, he would have died.” He said
Anna was visibly shaking and her lips were trembling. The tears were again rolling down her cheeks.
When she couldn’t say anything, Richard asked “Is he going to be alright?”
“As I had said earlier, it’s very difficult to save him as he had overdosed too. We have found a lot of cocaine in his body. We have pumped it out but still, it’s affecting him. That’s the reason he went into cardiac arrest.” The doctor explained him
Richard nodded dumbly. Then the doctor said, “and we have also taken out the bullets from his back.”
He sighed and said “We will try our best. Excuse me.”
“Dad, tell him not to die, please. I won’t be able to face myself ever.” Anna pleaded with him
But this time, Richard didn’t have any answers. He couldn’t believe that there is a 90% chance that
Jack could die.
He remembered the first time when he met both siblings. They both were sad as they had lost their mother.
“I only have Charlotte. I don’t have anyone except her.”
That’s what Jack had told him when he said ‘you are not alone.’
He didn’t want to lose him and he knew that Anna doesn’t want that either.
He was scared for his children but he couldn’t do anything right now except waiting for something.
Waiting for a miracle.
Hours passed and the surgery was still going on. The doctors didn’t come outside yet.
Anna was staring at the wall ahead of her while tears were still streaming down her eyes.
Charlotte was sitting beside her in the same conditions. The doctor told her to get some rest as she was injured.
But she didn’t want to leave her brother. She couldn’t leave him in this matter.
He had never left when she was in a difficult situation. He was always with her no matter how many times she had done blunders.
Then how could she leave him? And also she didn’t want to hear that he didn’t survive.
She doesn’t have anyone in her life. Her brother is her everything and the only family she had.
She could still remember his words when he met her after pushing her off the stairs.
FLASHBACK
Jack went inside the room and saw his 9 years old sister lying on the bed with a bandage on her head.
She looked at him with tears in her eyes and mumbled “Jack”
Jack took some steps toward her and sat beside her bed. His eyes were red due to continuously crying.
“Jack I am sorry. I don’t hate you. I love you. You are the best brother anyone could ever have. Please don’t leave me.” She whispered in tears.
Jack shook his head and hugged her gently and said “I would never leave you, Charlotte. You are my daughter. Remember Mumma said that we have to be there for each other. I won’t leave you ever and love you too.”
FLASHBACK ENDS
Some tears again started to roll down her cheeks and she wiped it quickly.
Her brother is going to be alright. He had promised her and he won’t break his promise ever.
The doctor came out of the room with a grim expression. He nodded to the other doctor then moved toward them.
Anna stood up and hurriedly asked, “Is he alright doctor?”
Dr. Samuel sighed and said “the surgery was successful and we have taken out the bullets. But he is not responding to our medicines.”
Then he furthered continued “He is in a coma.”

Long chapter ahead.

Third Person POV
Anna yawned softly and leaned her back against the rocking chair, sitting comfortably.
She looked at the blue eyes of her daughter, staring at her with innocence and cuteness.
Her heart swelled with happiness when her little one gave her a toothless smile while drinking her milk from the bottle.
Her little girl, Alice will turn 9 months tomorrow. She is a naughty child.
[Thank you for the suggestion babe AnkitaGhosh205]
She had her mother’s eyes and her facial features, probably from her father.
It was 3 in the morning. Anna’s eyes were getting heavy and the need to slip into slumber was getting increased.
She heard footsteps outside Alice’s room and the door opened with a creak.
Jack popped his head inside the room to check whether his angel was sleeping or not.
He was in an important meeting and that was the reason behind his tardiness.
He smiled when he saw his wife and opened the door and went inside.
He walked toward her and kissed her cheek and got rewarded with her tired smile.
“You are still awake.”
He bent down to his angel’s level and kissed her forehead making her giggle.
“I was waiting for you and it was Alice’s feeding anyway.” She replied to him with a yawn.
Alice removed her little mouth from the nipple of the bottle and made a gurgling sound.
Anna laughed softly and picked her up from her lap and gave her to Jack and said “She is finished.”
Jack nodded and patted her back gently until she burped. Anna stood up and said, “I’ll bring your dinner in the room.”
Jack again nodded and took Alice out of the room. He passed by his other kids’ room and went inside.
Mia was sleeping without her blanket as she had pushed it down on the floor and Matthew was in deep slumber and was sleeping soundly.
He shook his head and with one hand, picked up the blanket and spread it on Mia.
He then kissed his children goodnight and walked out of the room and closed it quietly.
He then moved toward his room and opened the door. He put Alice on the bed who was babbling something.
Anna came inside with a tray in her hand and placed it on the bed and said “you go and change.”
He went inside and came out after changing his clothes. He ate his food in silence after asking if she had it too.
“How was their first day in school?” Jack asked once he finished his food.
Anna giggled and said, “Mia fought with someone on the first day and Matthew made a new friend.”
Jack chuckled and said, “looks like they had a good day.”
“Yeah. Now we should sleep. I am very tired and you are too.” Anna said and placed sleeping Alice between them.
They laid down on their place and Jack moved his head toward Anna and pecked her lips.
She gave him a smile and mumbled a ‘good night’ and put her hand gently on Alice’s body.
FLASHBACK
“What?” Anna whispered
“We have tried our best but we couldn’t do anything to save him from going into Coma.” Dr. Samuel told them.
Anger bubbled in Anna and she glared at the doctor and said “What kind of a doctor are you who couldn’t even save a person?”
