Dwayne Clement's POV
"There may be clouds on the horizon but I'm going to be with you through thick and thin."
No one dared to move. No one disembarks. No one embarks. I held my breath, heavy panting's on my heart. If only I could stop time and save her.
Moments after, it was as if there was an angel that passed by, no one dared to utter. Nothing. Silence. Blank faces. Blank expressions. I exhaled.
Doctor Eon's face softened and said, "Further updates will be followed up until her Doctor comes in."
"Thank you," I said, forcing my smile.
I saw how the nurses transferred her stretcher along with the different apparatus on the Intensive Care Unit. I pressed my lips together, averting my eyes on Maximo, still following Zcyhie's unconscious body. But before we went towards the room, we wore a lab gown, a mask, and changed our shoes into a white closed shoe. This was the protocol.
"Excuse me." The doctor went out, but a nurse stayed at the monitoring room.
Wake up, Zcyhie.Please open your eyes.
I felt a hand patting my back. "Care to share what's on your mind?" Austin asked, worried expression plastered on his face.
I clenched my jaw and gaze at her beautiful features. She was now cleaned, there was no blood everywhere, her face showing her freckles and her lips were slowly recovering from pale to red.
"Pull yourself together!" I mumbled. I wiped my sweat dropped from my temple and scanned her once again.
"I know you can go through all that!" Maximo cheered up, his voice raised a bit, lifting his right hand in the air. Carmen shut him up making Maximo scrunched his face.
"In Clement, we trust!" Austin and Maximo both yelled. I mentally facepalmed. I glanced at Carmen again. She pointed the rules and regulations using a stick, as if she wanted to shove Austin and Maximo out of the room.
"But in Lychee, I trust." I touched her face, tucking strands of hair in her ear.
"Open your eyes to see a man with a heavenly look, looking in front of you." I added, laughing.
"We'll go drinking, Zcyhie. Now, wake up!" Maximo shouted. I massage my temples as I saw Carmen in my peripheral, walked towards our direction. Maximo jolted upright, grabbing the t-shirt of Austin.
"We're heading out," Austin in a tensed voice, said.
"I'll grab some foods and clothes." Maximo shook his head and rushed towards the exit.
Carmen folded her arms, looking at Austin. "I'll stay outside," he said.
I just nodded in response. I glanced towards Carmen and smiled, "I'm so sorry for the freaks."
