HIM

CHAPTER 43

I was about to faint of fear. What the hell has happened here.
"Tyler, go and ask the nurse if Harry has left his room, quickly."
"Okay." He ran and I just stood there thinking where would he go and then I heard a voice in the bathroom. I entered the bathroom which was inside the room and found that Harry sat on the floor beside the toilet seat and he was vomitting.
"Harry, what's wrong." I said while running to sit beside him. He couldn't answer, he was vomitting so hard that I didn't know what to do, he couldn't even sit properly. I decided to go amd call the doctor. I went back to the room to find that Tyler came running and he was breathing heavily.
"She told me that she didn't see him and no one came to visit him after you."
"He is here in the bathroom. please go and tell the nurse to bring Dr. Calder to room 167."
"Okay. 1 minute." He ran quickly. I went back to the bathroom.
"Help me stand up." Harry said with a very low and pained voice that I could barely hear him. I put my both arms under his and tried to carry him or help him stand up. He was so heavy, all I could do was help him sit down.
"I can't" I said to myself but I think he heard me.
"Stop stop." He said
"What?"
"I'll stand up myself."
"You won't be able to stand up."
"Why?" He said. I am such a stupid person, he doesn't know.
"You're just sick, you won't be able to stand up, you're not strong enough." He sat on the floor again. Dr. Calder came running and Tyler was just behind him.
"What happened?" Dr. Calder asked.
"I went downstairs to bring some food and came back to find blood on the bed and floor, he was here vomitting so hard."
"Tyler, help me put him on his bed." Dr. Calder said. Tyler put hisboth arms and Harry's arm and Dr. Calder did the same to the other arm. They put him back on the bed. When the put him, I found that he has fainted. Oh my god.
"Dr. Calder, what's wrong with him."
Dr. Calder called a nurse to help him attach the machines and cannula to his body again. He was so pale and he looked so tired and horrible that I couldn't stand it. I ran out of the room and sat on a seat infront of his room. I was crying so hard that I couldn't see or hear anything around me.
"Don't worry, he's gonna be alright." Tyler said sitting beside me and putting his hand on my back reassuring me.
"I don't know what to do, it's all my fault and I can't even fix it or do anything to help him."
"Don't say that, his father is the one who hit, you have nothing to do with that at all."
"If I just went a couple of minutes later that wasn't going to happen."
"It's okay, don't blame yourself."
We just sat there for I don't know how long. And then, Dr. Calder came out of the room with a horrifying reaction on his face.
"Miss Adams. Can I talk to you for a second."
"Of course, excuse me Tyler."
"Take your time." He said.
I stood up and went with Dr. Calder.
"Sophia, I am gonna tell you something but please you gotta be strong, for Harry, okay?"
"What's wrong? I am worried?"
"Just promise me first."
"I'll try."
"No promise me."
"I promise."
"Okay, when Harry first came here, I didn't have time to put him under Magnetic Resonance, I just dealt with him as you said, that hos father hit him on his head. I wanted to put him under Magnetic Resonance to make sure of something but when your friend, Tyler, told me that there was blood and I came to find him vomitting, I made sure that I was right."
"And that thing is?" I said worriedly
"His father didn't just hit him on the back of his head, he he hit him harder than I thought on the back of his head, moreover he hit him on the far start of the spinal cord on his neck from behind which may lead to him not being able to walk again."
"What? what are you saying? He is gonna be paralysed the rest of his life?"
"We have to put him under Magnetic Resonance to be sure of that, his treatment may be delayed than I has told ya before, according to his situation."
"If it isn't that bad, when will he be able to walk again?"
"In 6 months at least."
"What? He will stay paralysed for more than a 6 months."
"Unfortunately."
"No, that's not real." I started crying
"No, no, you promised me to be strong for him."
"Ok I'll be strong. Thank you for your concern."
"It's my job." He was about to walk but I called him.
"When will you put him under Magnetic Resonance?" I asked.
"As soon as we can."
"Can we do that now?"
"Okay, I'll go tell the nurses to prepare the Magnetic Resonance room."
"Thanks."
I returned back to sit beside Tyler and started crying again, I know I have to be strong but I can't take it anymore, I don't know what should I do.
"He will be okay, I promise."
"He is gonna be paralysed for more than 6 months, if he is lucky, he may be paralysed to the real of his life."
"He is gonna be alright." He said and put his hand of my leg to reassure me.
"Thank you Tyler for being here for me."
"It's okay, I still love you."
