The street was dark, there were a few people staring at the accident scene. You could hear the ambulance and firefighter's sirens closing by. The car was burning out of control, Arnold and Gerald were able to get Helga and Miriam out of the car on time, before the flames consumed them.
Arnold couldn't stop shedding tears as he held Helga in his arms.
"Helga, you mean the world to me, stay strong I'l never leave you....I'm here." Whisper Arnold to Helga as he was pressing down on her head wound.
"How is she Arnold?" Asked Gerald concern.
"I don't know Gerald, I was able to stop the bleeding but she's unconscious and very pale."
"Is she breathing?" Asked Gerald alarmed.
"Barely" Replied Arnold heartbroken.
"I'll go and check on Helga's mom, but she's not bleeding, I think she'll be fine." Said Gerald as he left to check on Miriam.The ambulance arrived and the paramedics rushed to Arnold. "Is she breathing?" Asked one paramedic "Yes barely, I was able to stop the Hemorrhage, but she lost a lot of blood." Replied Arnold.
"Will take it from here." Replied the paramedic as they placed her on a stretcher and placed an oxygen mask on her to help her breath. "Is she going to be all right?" Asked Arnold with fear in his eyes. The paramedic saw Arnold scare for her and cover in blood "Look you did good, you saved her life, will take her to North Hospital if you want to check up on her later, what's you name?" asked the paramedic."Arnold"
"Will let the hospital staff know what you did for her." The paramedics placed Helga inside the ambulance and they left. Another ambulance took her mother as well. The firefighters were putting out the fire on the vehicle.
Arnold was left standing with his bloody sweater in his hands and staring into the ambulance as they drove off. He was in shock, the image of Helga bleeding inside the burning car was too much for him. I saw her hurt in my dream and I couldn't save her from getting hurt. Thought Arnold has he drop to his knees on the floor "Helga please be okay." Arnold looked at his shirt and saw the locket cover in blood. Just like the dream "Helga said, soon my love but first you have to be strong. What does that mean?." Said Arnold staring in to space.
"Arnold snap out of it... I called Phoebe and she will contact Helga's father, my Dad can give us a ride to the hospital. I'll tell him to bring a clean shirt for ya."
"Thanks Gerald."
A firefighter walked over to Arnold.
"Are you related to the young lady that was taken to the hospital."
"Aaaahhh.." Arnold didn't know what to say.
"Yes Sir, he's her boyfriend." Replied Gerald.
Arnold's eyes widened.
"Okay than, this belongs to her, we found it inside the car, it's the only thing that wasn't burn." The firefighters handed Arnold, Helgas's ballet gym bag. It was partially burn but the stuff inside the bag were safe from damage.A couple of hours later. Arnold, Gerald, Phoebe and Bob were at the waiting room. Waiting on the Doctors to say something about Helga and Miriam.
Arnold gave Phoebe Helga's gym bag for safe keeping. Bob was seating alone and apart from the rest of them with his hands on his head looking down.
The Doctor walked over to the waiting room.
"Mr. Pataki?" Asked the Doctor
"Yes that's me." Bob stood up with tired eyes.
"Your wife just woke up, she's stable and talking. She suffers minor head injuries and she'll have to spend the night for observation, she can go home tomorrow morning."
"What about my daughter?" Asked Bob very concern.
The Doctor change his face expression, Arnold noticed it and feared the worst.
"Your daughter came to us in shock, she lost lots of blood and suffer a temporal artery injury and needed transfusion."
Arnold felt his entire body frozen, his mind was ready to hear the unthinkable, his heart raced in fear."We were able to keep her stable, but the next forty-eight hours are critical." As the Doctor was explaining he looked at Gerald and Arnold.
"Who's the young lady's boyfriend?" Asked the Doctor.
Gerald pushed Arnold towards the Doctor. "He is Doctor." Arnold's eyes were widened with embarrassment, when Gerald said that in front of the Doctor and especially in front of Helga's father.
"Young man, the paramedics told me what you did and by stopping the hemorrhage and keeping her warmed you saved her life, not to mention you and your friend, we're able to pulled the young lady and her mother from the burning vehicle, that was a very heroic and selfless act. Mr. Pataki you should feel proud for these two young man, especially your daughter's boyfriend for saving her life. What's your name young man?" Asked the Doctor.
"Aww...Arnold" he answered shyly.
The Doctor shook his hand and Gerald's.
"Can we see Helga Doctor?" Asked Phoebe.
"Yes, her nurse will take you all to see her in a minute." Said the Doctor as he walked away.
