The Guy She Never Noticed

Chapter 17- A path of sorrow........

I walked on the path with Zoe in my arms, tears rolling from my eyes in the heavy snow. I had started to get exhausted. I had walked a mile or so. 

Suddenly, I heard the sound of an ambulance, the sound of hope coming from the path I came.

I looked back and there it was, a ambulance was coming towards us.

It stopped by us and in it was our driver. God bless this man.

I quickly made Zoe lay on the stretcher at the back.

The doctor gave her oxygen through those cylinders.

He told that her condition was critical as the collision had given a blow to her head too.

We quickly reached the hospital.

Zoe was taken to the emergency ward. 

After that she was taken to the operation theater. 

After 3 hours the doctor came out, he had his head hung down.

"Mr. Zach We are extremely sorry. We tried our level best but we are afraid Ms.Zoe has slipped into coma."

I was shocked. My Zoe had gone into coma a month before her wedding.

I went and sat by her. I cried, cried and cried.

I couldn't even call her family and tell.

I was all alone in this country, is this what I wanted? Is this why I came here?

5 days later....

5 days had passed since the accident. 

Zoe was on the ventilator.

I started loosing hope. I had promised myself if anything happened to her I would give my life up.

I  just kept thinking of a way of getting my Zoe back.

Just then I heard a knock on the door, it was Zoe's doc.

I went to him thinking he bought some good news but as you all know good news doesn't like me.

"Mr. Zach, Ms.Zoe's condition is showing no improvement and the ventilator must be costing you a lot, If you want we can shut the ventilator down."

"And let her die??? How can you even ask this question doc?"

" I apologize sir but I'm afraid that this is a very severe case and we do not think we can do anything"

"Listen doctor, TO THE FUCKIN HELL with your thoughts! I want my Zoe back!! AT ANY FUCKING COST!"

"Sir, we do not have specialists here, we have them in NEW YORK, If only you approve can we get them here, but they will cost you a lot and then too the chances are very less of Ms.Zoe to come back."

"That does not mean  I WILL LET HER FUCKING DIE!!!!!"

It was true that I had no money left. 

I had spent all I had plus all I had in the bank on the medications and treatment of Zoe.

Because of the shortage of the money I hadn't even got myself treated. 

Money indeed is a big problem.

But then I got an idea....It was the last option I had ....................
