"911, What's your emergency?" The voice of an old lady spoke.
"Hello, My grandfather got shot with a bullet in his heart. Please send the ambulance as fast as you can!!" I yelled
"It is on its way. Can you not move him , just make sure that he is conscious." She answered.
"Okay,thanks."
"Wait, I need to get some information about the caller."
"Sure, go ahead."
"Name?"
"Essence Rose"
"Age?"
"20"
"Relationship with patient?"
"He is my grandfather and I am his only grandchild."
"By now the ambulance should arrive"
"Oh I see , i see it. Thank you very much."And she was right, I saw the red and white ambulance car with the paramedics rushing in the house to save my grandfather.2 minutes after that, they loaded him to the car and flew to the hospital . We reached to the hospital and got him to a room and when they started putting him a lot of machines. I couldn't see him like that , so I went outside to have walk in the hospital. The hospital had a lot of advantages , it had a library , technology center and their own field and track. I heard the nurse calling me , so i stopped walking so she can catch up with me. " would you like for the hospital to get you a bed in your grandfathers room?" She said
"Um, no it's ok"
"Ok, we'll we put him on machines and we are getting him ready for surgery"
"Can I see him before he goes in?"
"Yes sure follow me "The nurse took me in front of the surgery room were grandpa came on a stretcher .
"I will wait for you." I said, while staring at his dreamy blue eyes.
"If I die , please don't let go of the family house, you and your mother have lot of memories in it. Keep it alive."
"Stop, you will be fine . I love you so much. Bye grandpa!"
"Bye bye pumpkin. You will always be my little princess."And he went in with tears going down his face. While I waited the 6 hours of surgery to end , I went outside in the reception to calm myself up. I saw a blonde haired guy and he looked sweaty and really dizzy. I ran to help him out and the nurse took us to the room right next to grandpas , where the blonde guy will stay. He started mumbling something like "where am I?where is Harry, Zayn, Louis and Liam?" As he was questioning me.
"I don't know what you are talking about." I whispered while spreading a blanket on him.
"Oh , my name is Niall . Niall Horan." He finally said.
"Nice to meet you Niall . I am your neighbor in the room next to you."
"Are you ill?"
"No,no my grandfather was shot and he is now in surgery."
" oh , I'm sorry. Are you crying?"
"It's ok" I said as I was shivering while I stared at my scar in my neck. I've always tried to hide it with scarfs and high neck shirts, but this time I was wearing my moms old blue scarf.
"I'm really sorry. Is that a scar?" He said while pulling my scarf away to take a good look and examined it.
"Yeah, I have to answer the phone" I answered while I pressed answer."Hello." I said
"Hi , how is grandpa?"
"How do you know?"
"I'm your husband , I know everything."
"You did it? Didn't you?"
"Yup and I admit , but if anyone find out, your next."
"How dare you ?"
"Look I don't care, but I think it's time for you to come home to your husband and cook him some food."
"No I am not coming , I will stay at the hospital . "
" you are going to regret this."
" I don't care anymore , I am done."and I hung up on him. I went back to Niall while shivering of fear. The doctor was wrapping his left legs , below the knees while Niall was in pain , but then he fell asleep. The next thing I know , I was sleepy too.Niall's POV :
I woke up with Essence leaning her head on my stomach. Her head was down , but I can feel that my gown was wet around the stomach area and full of makeup colors.
"Good morning Essence." I said calmly.a few seconds after , she woke up. I could see all her makeup smudged especially around the eyes and that's when I knew that she was crying.
"Oh, Good morning um....."
"Niall , you forgot?"
"Look I'm sorry , I just met you 6hours ago and half the time we were asleep."
"6 hours, didn't your grandfather get out of surgery already?" I reminded her.
"O my god, yes I got to go" and she quickly flew in front of the operating room. I grabbed my crutches and walked In a hurry behind her. We waited for about another hour until her grandfather comes out. She kept on staring at me to the point I knew something was wrong.
"R u ok ?" I asked her.
"Yeah I am fine. I am sorry i made you run all the way to here I thought we were late for him"
"It's ok. Can I use your phone, I need to talk to my friend to come and get me a pair of clothes incase"
"Oh, sure there you go and the password are the first 9 digits of my phone number , which is 201257769"
"Thanks"
"No problem , it's ok" she said while looking at the door of the surgery room. I knew something was going on. I tried to search her text messages to know her name and why is she sad like that and why did Her grandpa got shot and who shot him. The phone rang and I waited for zayn to pick up and then beep , beep, beep.
