Cristiano's POV
"Hello, everyone. I am Doctor Weekly. Kamea is resting now in a private room. Surgery for her arm and leg took a little longer than we thought. Whoever pushed her did it with force. She hit her head hard when she landed at the bottom of the staircase. We did a scan and did not see any cracks in her skull. She does, however, have a concussion. It's possible also that she may develop amnesia. We will check her for that when she wakes up."
I really hate Reed right now. He is going to pay severely for this. What man would do such a thing to a woman?!
The doctor continued, "She also suffered a broken arm and broke her left leg. Kamea has bruised ribs. She does have swelling in her brain, and because of that, she slipped into a coma. We placed her on life support. Her room number is 1471. You may go see her, but keep your visits short. Also, talk to her about special moments or events that happened in her life. Hearing your voices can potentially help her to wake out of the coma."
"Thank you, Doctor Weekly."
Kamea's mom says, "Marissa and Andre, you can go first."
"Thanks, Auntie. Let's go, Dre."
"I want him alive so that I can kill him myself!!"
He didn't want her, so now he tries to kill her?!!
"Over my dead will he get away with this!!"
After about 20 minutes, Kamea's cousin came back to the waiting room. "Auntie, we are probably going to be gone when you come back. So, we will see you tomorrow."
Kamea's mom waved goodbye to her niece and then left the room. All that was left in the waiting room were me, her cousin, Marissa, and her boyfriend.
"Look, Cris, I know my uncle already warned you, but I will add my piece too. My suspicions about Reed were true. He always came off as someone who would cheat, and he proved me right. Kamea, Noelani, and I are very close. They are more like my sisters than cousins. I wanted to break his face when she called me and told me what had happened. So, I am going to straight up tell you DO NOT hurt my cousin. Or else Andre and I will hurt you, got it?"
"Believe me. I got it." Man, her family doesn't play, which is understandable.
"That is one thing no one will have to worry about. She deserves to be treated like a queen, and that is what I vow to do. She means everything to my 5-year-old twins and me. I promise you. I love her very much."
Then she says, "Promises can be broken. But I can tell you really care about her by the way you talk about her and the sincerity in your voice. And I want to be there when you propose to her, your wedding, baby showers, etc."
"It's a deal."
Marissa's POV
"One more thing before we leave. Whatever you have planned for Reed, I want in on it. I can't stand him for what he did to her. I want him sliced and diced so he can be fed to the dogs."
"Here is our number. Call us when that joker is found."
Cris' POV
"Let me note never to cross anyone in her family."
Kamea's family came back to let me know it was okay to visit her now.
"Thank you, Cris. It really means a lot to know my sister will have you in her life. Please take good care of her, and we will see you later." Those words meant a lot coming from her sister.
