Why Me? [part 1]

chapter 20: déjà vous

Adrian's POV (3 months later)

Its been three months since the Ice Ring incident. Mari still hadn't came out of a coma, I've been worried sick. I took care of my self, for her. Because she wouldn't want it like that.

It was about 2 weeks until Christmas, so I got her room looking like Santa threw up all over it. I even put up a real tree for her with presents, and ornaments, and lights. All this with the hope that she wake up, at anytime. I'd still be happy if she woke up and said Adrian, I've never loved you. As long as the torture of her being half dead was over. I gated the uneasiness of not knowing if the love if your life would never open her beautiful eyes, never say I do, never bearing a child. Never growing old together lagging at our great grandkids. Saying I love you, protecting our city.

I was in total anguish with every passing moment.

Dr. Ethan came in for today's blood work and testing. I knew I'd have to leave and couldn't cone back until around six, so her family can visit, or any other friends. Going home for a shower and a change of clothes was my only option.

*home*

The large empty house, in which I no longer lived due to me staying by her constantly, was quite cold. Which was extremely unusual.

Nathalie never forgot to pay or turn on the utilities. Mabey something was wrong, I walked into the kitchen, and found a note.

Dear Son,

Nathalie are out if country on business. Please find a friends to stay at when you aren't at the hospital. I wish you a merry Christmas and New year! Due to weather I will not be able to make it back in time.

Sincerely,

Dad

Great, home alone for at least 4 weeks. Well the water is still on so might as well take a shower.

After my shower, it was almost 8pm. I had a half hour before I can return to my love.

My stomach began to growl signalling me that I need to eat. Obviously I walk to Marinette's bakery. Her parents made the best pastries in all of Paris. Most people had not found them yet because they don't advertise. All word of mouth. Actually, looking at their sales, was really working for them.

"Oh hey honey. How is she doing?" She said with a hint of hopefulness in her eye.

"She's still alive. But that's not living" I said, which made Sabine's face fall.

"Did the doctors figure out what happened? Why she's like this?" Tom, Mari's dad said to me.

"Nope not yet." I said.

"Well here's your lunch and something for her in case she wakes up today" she said while handing me a paper bag.

I gave her twenty and told her to keep the change for tomorrow's lunch. And in case you are wondering, yes I do this every day. I found myself in a delightfully sad rut. If that makes any actual sense. Now I made my way back to the hospital to see my princess.

Looooooong chapter. I want to try to make them longer because I want to give you more until I end this book, which I still do not know when that'll be. But yep, for the 8 millionth time THANKS FOR ALL THE VIEWS!! I LOVE Y'ALL SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH! Keep reading, voting and sharing. Bye bye butterfly,
