--Kiara--
A squint of light darted my eyes as I opened them. I adjusted my sight to the brightness and a white ceiling welcomed my consciousness. There is also a faint smell of disinfectant and medicine that brushed my nostrils. I furrowed my eyebrows in recognition. 'I'm at a hospital...'
I shut my eyes at a sudden dizziness I felt along with the throbbing of my head. 'What happened to me?'
I tried to remember what lead me here and I almost jumped out of my bed when I realize what happened.
'Phone call... Ambulance... Mom... Dad!'
My hand automatically landed on my mouth as tears came streaming down my face. My body begins to tremble. 'M-my Dad...'
I was about to pull the needle from the back of palm when the door of my hospital room opened.
"K-Kiara!" Liam run towards my direction and stop me from pulling the dextrose out of my hand.
"L-Liam...M-My D-dad... W-where's my D-Dad?" I tried my best not to break down but my voice cracked on its own. I felt Liam engulf me in a tight hug and shushed me.
"Calm down Kiara... C-calm down. He's on a better condition now... He just got out of the operation and resting now." I shook my head at his response. I can't calm down. Not until I see my father safe. I heard him sigh before slightly pulling me away.
"I want you to stay calm before we go to him. Can you do that?" I know Liam could be stubborn and he might not let me see my Dad if I don't agree with him so I wiped my tear-streaked face with the back of my hand and slowly nodded.
"Good... Can you walk?" He run his fingers through his disheveled hair, he's face distorted with concern. I just nodded. All I want is to see my Dad, anything else doesn't matter.
He assisted me to stand up and help me wear my slippers. I felt dizzy upon standing up at first but I managed to take a few steps before Liam let me go and settled in just pushing the IV Stand next to me. Before going out if the room, Liam also told me that I've been unconscious for about 12 hours, the same duration as my Dad's operation. I felt my chest constricted in pain as I remember Dad.
My eyes roam around as I opened the door to the hospital corridor. Usual hospital view of patients and doctors filled it but my eyes are searching for someone much more significant. I glanced at Liam, and he's already looking at me.
"W-where is he?" Finally, words came out from my dried mouth coherently.
Liam did not respond. He just put his hand on my shoulder and give it a little push. I don't exactly know what that means but I just look ahead and slowly walked until we reached the end of the corridor. My eyes are nailed on the sign on top of the door. 'Intensive Care Unit'
I felt my knees wobbled. 'Is this where my Father is?' That's what I wanted to ask but my mouth just kept on trembling. My mind drifted back to reality when I felt someone hugged me from behind.
"K-Kiara... Your D-Dad..." That voice. My body froze as my Mom speak in between her sobs. I spun around to face her and something sharp stab my heart as I saw pain in her beautiful brown eyes. I hugged her tight and her sobs turned to a painful cry. We stayed like that for I don't know how long. We just stood there, crying our hearts out until Liam assisted us to sit.
