Ema
My friend and I spoke about a lot of things we when through when we got separated, something which couldn't be expressed through the phone. Some where sad, funny,scary, romantic and other mixed feelings.
Time went by and by and I couldn't help but start worrying about mom and dad. So I picked up my half dead phone and called mom ......but it didn't went through.
I tried again but it didn't still go through
"Is everything okay" kasha asked after noticing my uncomfortable face " I can't get to mom"
" ok..so........why don't you try your dad's number".
" he never moves with his phone". My dad has a thing with moving with his phone "don't be worried... your mom and dad will be back in no time... moreover it's just 11:00am"
" that's the problem... my mom never stay out that late because dad eats breakfast at 7:00. Moreover he doesn't like takeout"
"You're just being worried for absolutely nothing.. I mean, I spoke to aunt yesterday and she sounded pretty good"
Just in this moment of worries mom finally called back. I quickly pick up the call
"Mom! .......Thank goodness you called..where are you" but no answer from her. I pulled back the phone from my ear to cross check if I answered the call and yes I did
"Mom?....can you hear me? .. mom... where are you"
"We are in the hospital.... Your dad is in coma"she said in a voice like a whisper and i could tell she has been crying.
Without saying a word I dropped the call and started putting on my shoes with my eyes full of tears waiting to just start running down
" what happened" kasha asked with a very confused face on "my dad is at the hospital" i said letting the first drop of tears loosed "what?... am coming with you" kasha grab her phone and quickly followed behind me.I was standing in front of a tall building written at the top as "Manage health center" the address my mom send.without hesitating, I moved into the building with kasha right behind me, after some time of running, we quickly got into the elevator and punched the bottom for floor 3. Minutes later we got out and i ran directly towards room nine which I could already see my mom talking to the doctor out the room
feeling scared but I worked towards my mom. And for the first time, my mom hocks me and breaks into tears. I have never seen her in this situation before
" your dad won't be around for a while" she whispers in my ears. I pulled back releasing myself from the hock " what's wrong with dad... he was pretty fine yesterday"
" your dad has Coronary Heart Disease .... And the doctor said it needs to be treated immediately"
" then... what are they waiting for" I asked
"It's lots of money"
"How much are we talking about"
I could loudly hear my mom inhaling before removing the words "2.5million... and I don't work .... Where can I possibly get that much money"
yeah.. mostly mom was the one always in the hospital, so her health didn't allow her work.
I stood as bold as I could. refusing to let another tear roll down " I'll look for a way... I have a Job and am sure I can raise money for dad's treatment"
"I'll support." Kasha said moving forward and placing her hand on my shoulders "uncle... has been like a dad to me... I have some money saved up ... I can give a helping hand while Ema and I look for more money"
Here kasha goes again taking my problems as hers. She's always there for me in days of troubles and happiness.
I turned and hock her so tight that she could barely breathe and like a whisper I said " thank you"..... " come on it's nothing ... we will work together..0k"
"Can I see dad" i said in pleading tune " you can go in..the doctor already gave the go ahead"said mom
