Fantina of the Opera

If Only She Knew

"Hey Mizura! How'd it go with Dr. Xi?"

"Not good John, not good."

"Aww baby, how come?"

"They told me I had internal bleeding and needed surgery in order for it to stop."

"Are you worried about the surgery?"

"No, but if I do the surgery, my chances of being pregnant go down by a hefty amount."

"I see why you are worried then."

"Also, I would never have another period again."

"Theres something else."

"But if I don't take the surgery, I might never be able to walk again."

"Oh, well that wouldn't be fun."

"That, and I also couldn't get pregnant."

"Okay I think I've heard enough."

"Anyways, what the hell should I do?"

"What do you want?"

"I want to do the surgery."

"Then go for it Mizura!"

"Okay, I will."

"Now, quickly go back to Dr. Xi."

"Oh, right! Thanks John."

She gave him a kiss and then ran back towards Dr. Xis office. John thought of himself as the luckiest man in the world. To be able to have 8 beautiful children and a loving and supporting wife, nothing went wrong in his mind. He had just hoped that his wife was okay.

John did not want to experience loss with another woman he cared about. When John was 12, his mother died in a car accident. John was forced to stay with his alcoholic father until he was 18. Johns older sister Kenna, also died in that car accident.

When John was living with his father, life was difficult. He was beaten and tortured until he was rid of skin. He was always being criticized by his father. He had to take care of himself because his father was always drunk. And he had seen too many woman leave his house crying after what his father did to those women.

John never wanted to be like his father. All that man did was abuse. Abuse alcohol. Abused his son. Abused innocent women. He did it so much, John lived with it as if it were a part of the family.

When John was 15, he went to live with his girlfriend, Mizura. Mizura was the best thing that could've happened to him. She was loving, caring, and supportive. And John knew right away, that they would be together forever.

Now John had to relive the life or death chance that he had his whole life. That moment when he realized that his wife's surgery, could easily end up like his moms car crash. He had to try and do something to save her. But the only thing he could do, was pray. Pray to God for love. Pray to God for hope, and for the safety of his wife. John would do whatever it took, to safe his one true love.

John ran throughout the entire hospital after 30 minutes of contemplating what to do. He finally did decide though. He had to go and save his wife.

As soon as he was about to enter the room is wife is in, Dr. Xi stepped out.

"Oh, hello John."

"Please, let me speak with my wife."

"Don't worry, you can. She may slur a little, but she'll be fine."

"Really? Thank you so much."

"My pleasure, I'll be back in a few minutes."

John entered the room and found Mizura. She was laying in the hospital bed, perky as ever.

"Hey John."

"Hey babe. How did the surgery go?"

"Good, I think?"

"Thats good."

"Hey."

"Whats wrong Mizura?"

"You know I love you, right?"

John eyes became filled with tears. His whole life came back to him. He reached down, and hugged Mizura as he sobbed his heart out.

"John, are you okay?"

John didn't answer. He continued to cry and sob into the pillow. If only Mizura knew why.
