We Can Make It

Chapter Nineteen

Matt's POV

"Babe!" Alyssa calls to me.

"What?!" I call back.

I am currently in our bedroom and she is in the kitchen doing something I know nothing of.

"Can you grab some tomatoes please at the store?" She asks me, still yelling of course.

I get off my bed lazily and pull my shirt on over my head until my chest is fully clothed.

I make my way downstairs and slip on a random pair of Vans, which happen I be my black ones.

"Bye baby," I say as I miss her forehead.

"Bye," she says and continues doing whatever it is she is doing.

I grab my car keys and hop in my SUV. I start the car up and back up out of the driveway, leaving.

When I am about ten blocks from the house, something hard hits my car, the driver's side, and I black out.

Alyssa's POV

I was fixing some nachos, that's why I sent Matt to get some tomatoes, with Quincy in his high chair when my phone on the counter rings. Matts name appears on the screen.

"Hello?" I ask.

"Hello, is this Alyssa Espinosa I am speaking to?" A female voice comes from the other line.

"Yes," I answer cautiously.

"This is Elizabeth Smith from Community Hospital. I found your contact name and it said that you are his wife. Your husband has been in a terrible accident," she says. My heart drops and I put my hand over my mouth.

"Oh my, is he okay?" I ask her.

"He is in bad condition. Could you come?"

"Yes," I answer and hang up.

I get Quincy ready and slip on my slip on Vans. I go out to my car and buckle Quincy into his car seat. After I am done with that, I get into the driver's seat and buckle in.

I begin driving to Community Hospital and when I get there I grab Quincy and hold him as I walk inside.

"Matthew Espinosa," I tell the lady behind the desk, hurriedly.

"Sorry ma'am but he is currently in surgery, you can wait over there." She points over to the waiting area.

I calmly nod and sit down in a chair in the corner.

Two hours later, a small middle aged woman in scrubs comes up to me.

"Alyssa?" She asks. I nod my head. "I'm Elizabeth." She offers her hand and I shake it.

"How is he?" I dare to ask.

"Well, he just got out of surgery so you are able to see so yourself. He is awake because the medicine wore off ten minutes ago." She pauses. "He won't go back to sleep."

I nod my rad and bring the now sleeping Quincy into the room Elizabeth leads me to.

I take in a deep breath and walk inside. There Matt sits with a boot on his left leg and bandages on some parts of his body. His face has cuts and bruises.

"Matt I am so glad you are okay" I say to him as I take a seat in the chair right next to his bed.

He looks at me weird and I think of the worst that could happen. Dies he he amnesia? It's possible since Elizabeth said he was in bad shape.

"Who are you?" He asks me. There it is, the worst possible thing. Amnesia.

"W-What?" I croak out.
