Well after that phone call , I sat on my bed and stared at the ceiling .
How am I going to talk to him if he is not answering ?!
Well he is sometimes hard to understand .I can't think about him all the time or else I am gonna be crazy in the end .
No thanks to the last option .
I need to think about something else .
Something that makes me feel a little bit more ...
Yes I found it .
I will clean my room, I don't know if this is a room anymore .
It is so messy , and lifeless .
I need to do something about it .
I got off my bed and yawned .
Oh God I am so tired , I didn't sleep well. I feel down .
These thoughts are going to ruin my whole life .
I realized by the moment I was thinking that my phone is blowing up with messages .
What in the actual heaven is happing ?
My heart is beating so fast , which is so bad .
I swear if something bad happened I gonna throw my ..
I need to calm down .
Damn ...
When I checked my phone it was my friend Ethane , soon he was calling .
"Hello Ethane , are you okay ?" I asked .
"Ummm I don't know how to say this but Henry's mom is in the hospital "
"Holy mother how and why?" I am so worried now .
"She got into a very bad car accident while she was driving with.." Then the call went silent .
"With who? Jesus just keep going"
"With Henry "
No...no...no this can't be happening , not now not today not ever .
Why ?
I feel that my heart sunk deep down in my stomach .
I can't even manage to say a single word .
"Hey are you still there ? Please say anything "
I almost forgot about Ethan .
Almost .
"Yeah I am here , but ..."
"Look tell your dad about it and come to the hospital "
"I know my dad cares about Ethan but I don't think he will let me go , he might go alone with mom but he won't take me "
"Just tell him and I will be there at the hospital OK ?Bye "
"K bye "
I can't believe how my life is getting better .
I don't want him to go away and leave me alone .
Hot tears were falling down .
I have to see him .
I ran outside my room and went down stairs not caring about my cousins and my aunt .
"Dad Henry got into a very bad accident while his mother was driving "
"Oh my God! " mama shocked out .
It is the first time I saw her worried to death since that day ....
"Who is Henry?" My aunt asked .
I am starting to get angry why they are asking too much , just stop .
My  brain is filled with bad ideas ,thoughts .
I don't want to lose the people I love .
Life is unfair .
I zoned out and the proof is that baba was shaking me and telling me to go to the hospital .
We both ran to the car and I told him where is the hospital .
"Don't worry honey he is gonna be okay " Dad said .
I think he  is trying to make me feel better , but all I feel is being like a piece of shit .
Dad was driving fast , not too much .
I was shaking  and playing with my  hair .
This is my habit when I am so nervous .
I am praying to God that they are both good .
Please God ...Please God I don't want to lose him or his mother .
She is the coolest mom ever .
She is the only person that Henry agrees with .
His friend , his mother .
He loves her so much .
Dad was parking the car , and he was making sure that everything fine .
Until his phone was ringing when we both got outside the car and dad   locking it .
That was mama , she was telling dad that she will come to the hospital with  my aunt since dad took the car .
"OK darling see you then " baba said before hanging up.
Walking through the hospital's door I ran to the reception .
"Please we need to see the people who got into a very bad accident , the boy's name is Henry and his mother..." I spitted out fast .
I talked so fast to the point the girl who is  standing in front of me was looking at me as if I have tow heads .
"Yes they are here and they are in room 19 " the receptionist said .
"Daughter have hope they will be okay just don't worry " Dad said .
"Hmm" I said while walking .
Walking fast we reached the room .
And a doctor  came out holding the chart thingy .
"Um please how are they ?" I asked her .
"They are good ,thank God. This is a mirical . Although they are injured but it will heal ,don't worry " She said while smiling .
"Thank God" baba murmured .
I was about to cry from happiness .
"Can we go inside ?" I asked .
She was thinking about it .
"Please he is my brother , I need to see him " .
"Yes but just 15 minutes not more not less , because there is a man and boy inside too"
"OK"
I looked at dad who was giving me a smile.
I knocked at the door and entered .
I saw Ethan who was staring at nothing probably thinking everything .
And there is a man who looks like Henry's dad .
They have the same exact features , but Henry is more handsome than his dad .
Dad walked too talking to the man and asking about how it all happened .
I shook Ethan and he looked at me with wide eyes .
"You came "
"Yes"
Then he stood up and hugged me .
Ethan is like a brother to me , he is always been there for me in the hard times .
I know baba will give me a lecture at home about touching  boys and ...y'all know all these stuff .
But I didn't care at that moment .
I just needed a hug .
"Mum works at the hospital when she saw Henry she immediately called me but she didn't know that the woman was his mother until the ..." He spitted  out .
"Yeah I got your point ".
I looked at Henry .
I looked at his mum .
How they are lying in bed , not able to move  or talk .
Sleeping is the best option , to avoid the pain .
I hold his hand and whispered " please wake up I need you " .
And all of a sudden the beeping machine started to make a very unpleasant sound .
No .
No.
No .
Please God no.
