No Ordinary Love

Chapter 51

***NOT EDITED***

Roman watched in horror as they worked on Zayra, they told him that she wasn't responding and the risk about taking too many sleeping pills was that she could go into a comma. She took many pills but were slow to digest, she would have died had they not arrived in time.

She couldn't stay in a comma, he thought. She just couldn't.

He paced the waiting area. They had forced him out of the room. He saw the security eyeing him and thought it best not to start shit. He had called his godfather and father and told him that they had found her.

Henry was on his way with Emily and Jeremy. The police had not been made aware that she was in the hospital. Henry had told Roman that he'd take care of that part.

He understood it all now, he kept thinking about the tape and it ate him. He knew that Elliott was still alive and if given the chance he'd take care of him quick. He didn't deserve to be alive. What he saw him do to her....His eyes watered, anger ate at him.

He had sent the video link to Henry, his godfather and one for himself. He saw the T.V and saw the pictures of a smiling Zayra in school and at a performance. Her family's tragedy being broadcast again and again. He shook his head frustrated. He was glad that he had requested two weeks off.

He didn't what to do he was beside himself. All he could do was wait and pray.

*******

Zayra slowly tried opening her eyes. She heard murmurs. The light was hurting her eyes.
Close the fucking window, she groaned silently.

After a few seconds she was able to open them. She felt something in her mouth and removed it. She looked around and recognized where she was at.

"You're awake good. There's a lot of people outside worried about you." A pretty nurse said to her, checking on her vitals.

"How did I get here?" She sat up. Her throat was dry, it hurt to speak.

"Shh rest. You were brought here by ambulance." She looked at her with sad eyes. "I'll let the Doctor know you're awake." She smiled before leaving.

She laid back down. Hundreds of thoughts running through her head. She saw the Doctor walk in with Henry and the nurse.

She frowned.

"Hello Zayra I'm Doctor Samihl. I'm going to ask you a few questions and check on you.

He walked closer placed his hand on his pocket and pulled his flashlight. Zayra panicked she had a flashback of the needle. She pushed him away.

"Zayra!" Henry thundered.

"Don't touch me!" She shrieked.

The Doctor quickly regained his composure. "I won't touch you I promise." He put his hands up. "See, I'll just ask you questions instead."

Her breathing was labored, her eyes wild. She looked at the nurse who nodded encouraging her.

"Do you know your name?"

She nodded.

"Do you know what date it is today?"

She shook her head.

"Do you know why you're here?" She looked at the nurse.

She shook her head.
