Silent Cries

SEVEN

~ Third Person POV ~

Delilah rushed in the emergency room and immediately started yelling at the receptionist.

"What do you mean I can't see her" she yelled.

"Ma'am if you don't quiet down and follow the rules, we will have to escort you out of here. So please ma'am, sit down and we will update you asap" the receptionist said politely.

"Dumb bitch" she mumbled as she looked off into the hospital to find Keith.

She walked over to him and wrapped an arm around his shoulder.

"It's going to be okay. She's a very strong girl. Actually she is the strongest girl we know" she said smiling.

"You're right, but my head hurt so I'm about to lay back and take a nap. Wake me up when the doctors come out to give us an update please." He mumbled as he laid back and closed his eyes.

After waiting awhile, Delilah eyes grew heavy as she found it hard to keep her eyes open. She laid her head on Keith's shoulder as she let her sleep consume her.

~ 3 Hours Later ~

Delilah slowly opened her eyes as she felt a light tap on her shoulder and heard the doctor say, "Family of Brielle Jefferies"

We both rushed over to here what the doctor had to say.

"Well Brielle just got out of surgery and she's doing okay, but she's very lucky that this young man brought her in when he did because the outcome could have been way worst."

"So what exactly did she overdose on doc?" Keith said.

"Brielle suffered from an overdose on Percocets. She took a very high dosage of the drug and seeing the amount she ingested, she was most likely trying to harm herself. We used anti-opioid medication to suppress the effects of the overdose. Then we injected her with N- Acetylcysteine to prevent her from future diagnosis of liver failure."

"So will she be okay? When will we be able to see her?" Delilah said

"Yes she will definitely be okay, she's just highly sedated and resting. You will be able to see her tomorrow during visitor hours and she should be awake by then."

"Okay thank you for saving her. We really appreciate it." Delilah hugged him tightly.

" You're very welcome sweetheart, it's my job. You guys get home now, it's kinda late. I hope you guys have a good night." He said as he walked out of the surgery waiting room.

~ Delilah POV ~

Keith and I walked outside to my car and just sat there thinking about all the information we just heard.

"So it's really true huh? She tried to kill herself to get away from people like me?" Keith said as he sounded like he was holding back tears.

"No Keith look at me. I know that you and Brielle had a rough relationship, but I know she really didn't hate you. I don't blame what happened on you, I blame it on her mother. She has put that girl through hell and back for what? Damn drugs. Pitiful right? I just want to take Bre away from all the negativity because she just doesn't deserve that." I spoke while hugging him slightly as he began crying on my shoulder.

Everything is going to be okay. We'll get through this. It's just a storm before the rainbow.
