But,
Why can a single conjuction give you so much hope? Maybe because we are too deep in our sorrows that we dwell hope on mere words. Elliots stomach churned, his mind still blown away from what had just happened.
Was it a good sign or bad, He didn't know. But everything seemed to turn against him in this world. How could he remain hopeful anymore?
The doctors did everything they could. It was now all luck. It had always been luck.
The clocks didn't seem to mind the agony of the humans as it freely continued to click. Every second passed with terror and perturbation, filled in the heart of those who waited.
Those who had always waited. Elliot waited.
All eyes were fixed on Noelle as her fingers moved for the upteenth time.
And then her eyes opened. Not slowly but abruptly. The life seemed to return and the autumn vanished.
Noelle Smiths was awake.
A moment passed , nothing was spoken.
"Mom. . . D-dad. . .?"
"They are not here love. I'm sor-"
"Where are they? Why are they not here?" Noelle spoke, her thoughts were a mess and she really didn't know what to think.
"Dear. . . They..they passed away. Don't you remember?"
The doctors tried hard not to talk about it but she wanted an answer. Everyone deserves an answer to the their question.
"They passed away," She looked at them with wet eyes and repeated, "-They passed way! They are fucking gone!" Noelle shouted as realisation dawned at her.
"E-Elliot. . .?" The uncertainty in her voice was almost killing. She wasn't even sure, if he had waited for her.
"He is here. Don't worry- No! don't stand up! Ruth, call Elliot. Right now!"
Noelle tried to break free from their hold as every inch of her body was begging to be with Elliot. She couldn't take that anymore. It felt like she was in pain in her sleep , A pain which nobody knew but her heart.
Finally, after what felt like an inernity, she ran from their hold removing all the drips. She ran and ran till she found a boy with sapphire eyes.
The frozen hearts melted. The tears escaped. The torned souls mended. Noelle was with Elliot, again.
