You Complete Me

What?!

Chapter 9: What?!

I picked up the phone next to my bed as it rang loudly.

"Hello?"

"Violet! Violet! It's mom." Evan's voice sobbed.

"What?! What happened?!"

"She was in an accident. Was she home last night?"

"No. I called her. She said she was gonna stay at a hotel because she was working late."

"She wasn't coming from the direction of her office though..."

What?

"I-I don't know. Which hospital?"

"Saint Claire's. Come. Hurry."

"I will." I hung up and hopped out of bed.

Mommy. You have to be okay.

I let out a few silent tears.

"Kyle! Kyle, wake up. Drive me to the hospital. It's my mom. I would drive myself but..." I looked down at my hands that were shaking like crazy. "I-I-"

"Vi, calm down. I'll drive you." He looked up at me with his beautiful, brown eyes.

He hopped out of bed, slipped on some slippers and grabbed my hand. We dashed out the door.

She had to be okay.

I didn't know what to do. The tears were coming like tsunami tides.

"Vi, it's okay."

"It's not okay. It's not fucking okay."

And he didn't say anything else.

"Can I see her?" I asked.

"In about a half an hour." The nurse replied sweetly.

"Is she okay?"

"She's in critical condition. She has head injuries and internal bleeding. But she should make a full recovery, if everything goes as planned."

I sighed in relief. "Thank you so much." I whispered.

"Anytime, sweetie."

I grasped Kyle's hand tightly.

She was okay.

Maybe.
