Chapter 20 - The Hospital

*Meyuki POV*

When I got a call from Mihi using the walkie-talkie, I panicked. Minx apparently passed out and fell down the stairs! Now, this may seem like it's perfectly fine, but she started bleeding from the head! I immediately told my dad, and he brought me to the hospital.

"Excuse me, we're here to visit someone under the name of Minx Sheba. Can you tell us where her room may be?" My father asked the receptionist. She nodded and looked at her computer.

"Someone under the name Minx Sheba should be in room 104. Have a nice visit, mate!" The receptionist said with a thick British accent. My father and I immediately set off to get to the room.

"Henry! Thank goodness you guys are here, Minx got a grade three concussion, she's inside if you want to check on her," Mrs. Sheba told us. I nodded, and I went into the hospital room. I was already freaking out due to the fact that the last time I was in a hospital... my mum died.
"She hasn't woken up yet, but the doctors say that she will in about five hours," Mrs. Sheba told us. My father looked like he was also freaking out for the same reason as me, and I heard running in the hallway.

"Sorry we're late, there was a lot of traffic on the way. Elaine and Mihi should be here soon, they probably just entered the building," Mr. Afton explained. I saw Tinku pacing back and forth behind him, and I saw Michael trying to get her to calm down.

"Big sister, why are you sad? Is something wrong?" Evan asked her innocently. Tinku looked at him sadly, and she explained what was going on.

"So, Minx may not wake up? That's really upsetting! I'm sorry sis, hopefully she wakes up soon," Evan muttered sadly. Michael was holding Elizabeth, and I walked over to the group.

"The doctors say that Minx should wake up in about five hours, so let's just hope for the best," I encouraged. I gave Tinku a hug, and I offered to hold Elizabeth.

"Sure, you are her favorite after all," Michael chuckled at his reply. I picked Elizabeth out from Michael's arms, and I held her until Mihi and their mum got here.

"Hey guys, sorry about the hold up, there were a whole bunch of people downstairs," Mihi explained.

"Mihi dear, go talk with your mates, the adults need to have a bit of a discussion," Mihi's mum said sweetly. Mihi then walked over to us, and I swear that I saw Michael blush a little. I knew that Minx likes Mihi, but I also know that Mihi likes Michael, and I know for a fact that Michael likes Mihi as well. It's a really complicated love triangle thing.

~*Three Hours Later*~

"Kids! Minx is waking up!" Dad called us into the room. Minx looked extremely tired, but she sat up.

"Hey guys... how long was I out? The last thing I remember is passing out on the top of the... wait... did I fall down the stairs? I-I'm in a hospital, oh geez, I'm in the hospital. But for real, how long was I out?" Minx asked worriedly.

"You've been out for about 3 hours, the doctors said you wouldn't be awake for two more hours, but it looks like his guess was wrong," Mrs. Afton explained.

~*Time Skip*~

"Thanks for taking me home, I really appreciate it. Guess I'm going to miss a few assignments," Minx chuckled at her comment. I nodded, and I walked over to my house. Minx is going to be okay. She is going to be alright.
