Felixs POV

Everyday for the past month, I've been sat here, watching as my little girl gets worse and worse. It seemed that she was going to die in this coma, especially because of what the doctors said to Marzia and I this morning. He asked us if we wanted to pull the plug on Alva. If we wanted to give up hope on Alva. I absolutely lost it when he said that. I was prepared to sit and wait for an eternity for Alva. I would sit and wait until time turned to dust just to see Alva awake again. I would never, ever kill my daughter. It's like murder, they have no choice. "How dare you say that! You want to know if I want to end my daughters life? You a**hole!" I half-shrieked at the doctor, before going to punch. Marzia had to pull me back to stop me. My anger had always been at breaking point since Alva collapsed. We were asked to leave the hospital and I wasn't allowed to return for a week. I stormed out, filled with anger, frustration, horror and sadness, as well as a mix of many other emotions.

We got back to our small apartment, not far from the hospital. I sat down in the kitchen and began to cry. I could see my own daughter for a week "What am I going to do? I can't see her! They can't take her away from me, they just can't! It's not fair!" I wailed. Marzia came over and cuddled me. "Alva will be fine, I just know it. She's a born fighter and she won't give up because her dad isn't allowed to see her. A week isn't so long anyway, you'll be seeing her again in no time" Marzia said to comfort me. "But she won't be awake, at this rate she'll never be. The doctors have given up hope, they've asked if we've given up hope. She just sleeps now, and she can't wake up" I said in retaliation. That pushed it too far. Marzia started making whimpering noises, and started crying her eyes out too. "I'm sorry, Marzia, please don't cry" I said to her. "Don't you.dare say that about Alva! She will wake up! She's not a vegtable! Just shut up!" Marzia yelled at me before running out of the room. I'd made Marzia mad, I could see my little girl. I had no-one. No-one at all. I had never felt more down and alone. As I sat in my sorrow, I got a call. I picked up my phone to answer it. "Hello?" I asked. "Come to the hospital quick, you'll want to see this".

Alvas POV

I was still sat in the dark, searching for a way to open up my eyes. I had been doing this for a month, but I had finally found a way to do it. It still took a lot of effort, but after several attempts, my eyes were open. The first thing I saw was the light. It was really bright and made me cower. I looked away from it, down at my arms. There were lots of tubes and bags and equipment connected to me. This was what had been keeping me alive.

I needed to talk for someone, so I tried to call out, but nothing really came out. I tried desperately to remember how to do it, but all I got was a hoarse whisper. I guessed it was from the fact I hadn't talked for a month. I was lucky though. A nurse came in to do a check-up, and there is was, sat bolt upright, with my eyes open, trying to talk. "Miss Kjellberg, are you awake? I nodded my head, because talking was useless. "Doctor Joplin! Miss Kjellberg had woken up!" The nurse yelled out the door. A man walked in, wearing a doctors coat. He had slightly greyish hair and wore glasses that didn't quite fit him, they sat at an angle. "Hello Alva, it's nice to see you awake. I need to test you, to make sure you're fine" the man who I presumed was Doctor Joplin. They were pretty standard, but they made all the difference to me. He ran off the evaluate my tests, so I was left alone again. I hated being alone. It was the worst feeling in the world for me.

Marrzias POV

I sat in my room, crying my eyes out when Felix came bursting in "What is it?" I asked him in a surly voice. "It's Alva. She's woken up!" Felix said with such an excited voice. "Really?" I stood up and said to him "Yeah! We're both allowed to go and see her now!" Felix said. We both grabbed our jackets and started running to the hospital.

We arrived at the children's coma ward, and were given access to Alvas room. Pic gently knocked in the door, like I always do, and walked in. There she was. Alva was sat up in her bed, reading a child's book and smiling. "Alva?" Felix asked. She looked up from her book and looked at us in confusion, before something clicked in her and she remembered us. "Mummy! Daddy! You're here!" She said in a hoarse voice. "You're finally up! We can start to be a family again!" Felix exclaimed. We both hugged Alva in a cheesy way, but our love was true and not staged.
