Niall's pov

I wish Avalon would wake up already. She's in a coma. Nobody knows when she will wake up. It could be hours, days, weeks, even years. I couldn't bear living in a world where her voice has been ceased, hands still, eyes unblinkable. I  held her hand while the doctor talked to uncle Si.

"Mr. Cowell, your daughter Avalon has atrial fibrillation"

"I- it can be cured right?" he sniffled. I've never seen uncle Si cry before

"treated. it can be treated. we use electrical cardioversion to treat a fast or irregular heartbeat. For this procedure, low-energy shocks are given to your heart to trigger a normal rhythm"

"and when can this be done?" 

"as soon as she wakes up, she will have to be on medication after the procedure"

"okay"

I can't believe this. I always thought Avalon was healthy.

"oh and Mr. Cowell?" the doctor turned before she left

"yes?" 

"you are aware that Avalon isn't your biological daughter correct?"
