forgotten love -Nicholas Chavez

I will never forget you
You'll always be by my side
From the day that I met you
I knew that I would love you 'til the day I die

Nicholas.

*Six Weeks Later*

I wake up gasping as I felt a sharp pain near my hip. I wince in pain and lay back down. I look around confused at where I was then realized that I was still stuck at the hospital.

I wanted to walk around to see who was here so I swing my legs over my bed and try to stand only to fall to the ground and to be helped up by a woman who wasn't my mother.

"Oh Nick you're awake! Let me help you up." I look the woman in the face and saw it was Robins mother, Maryanne.

"Mary..." I say in relief as I randomly embrace her for a hug.

"Sweetheart..." she tightly squeezes me and I felt her tears fall at my shoulders, "your mother and father are both going to be so happy once they know that their son is walking and talking. Gosh I'm happy that you are."

"How long have I been sleep?" I asked.

"A month and two weeks." She responds.

"Where's Robin...is she awake? Mary I have to see her please." I begged.

"Come along then." She is hesitant but helps me walk out of my door to get to a wheelchair and she pushes me along the halls.

Why is Robin so far from me?

That's when I saw ICU rooms and it hit me...she got hit worst than me.

Mary pulls me up to her room and outside the window I see her all bruised up with only two tubes in her now less than before. One in her stomach probably her feeding tube and the other coming out of her mouth to force oxygen inside of her.

It was horrific seeing her in this position. And Aaliyah told me she was angry. But at what? I can't even remember what happened.

"She's in a deep coma. They've been trying to get her out to make her conscious but she just won't wake up. And it's the scariest thing for a parent t—to see this. Like...I just can't believe it..." Mary breaks down and I squeeze her hand.

"C—Can I go inside?" I asked.

"Yeah but she probably won't be able to hear you."

"I'm fine with that I just can't be behind this glass any longer." I say as I try to stand with Mary's help.

Once I found my balance I walked inside and go to her side. She looked so dead. The color in her skin was gone. Her cheeks weren't flushed. Did Aaliyah lie to me to distract me from coming with her? Or did Robin really wanted to stay.

I kneel down grabbing her lifeless hand and I rest my head against her bed feeling the tears fall from my eyes.

"I—I cant lose you. Your mom needs you, your older sister needs you...I-I need you. Robin please, please don't leave me." I say to her as I force myself to look up at her grey skin.

"Why did this happen to us? Why...we are suppose to get married...we are suppose to have kids...I-I promised you with this promise ring that I would protect you, love you until the day I die, give you a life you will never regret...I'm-I'm sorry baby... I'm sorry I wasn't perfect, I'm sorry we fought constantly and I would always screw things up." then I feel Marys hands on my shoulders.
