Philip
Doctor, how are my wife and Andrew doing.

Doctor
They are still undergoing an operation, I'll take my leave now. I need to go see another patient, excuse me.  (left)

(Miranda and Isabella came in meeting Philip in a troubled state)

Isabella
(rushes to meet Philip) Philip have you heard anything from the doctor, regarding Yvonne and Philip

Philip
They are still undergoing an operation.

Isabella
Philip, am scared. I don't want anything to happen to them.

Philip
Nothing will happen to them, they won't give up without a fight.

Miranda
Yes, I'm sure of that.

(The surgeon came out from the operation room)

Philip
How is my wife, hope she's fine.

Surgeon
There's good and bad news, which should I say first

Philip
I'll go with the good news first.

Surgeon
The good news is your wife is pregnant.

Philip
(Surprise) pregnant how, when?. let me guess the bad news is, she lost the baby.

Surgeon
No, the good news is that the bullet didn't affect the womb. So the baby is safe, that's a very big miracle.

Philip
(Happy) wow, I'm so happy. How old is the baby in her womb?

Surgeon
Two month

Philip
Why didn't I find out, she was pregnant.

Surgeon
I don't think she knows, she was pregnant.

Philip
But her first pregnancy was known quickly.

Surgeon
Some pregnancy is like that, it takes times before you know you're pregnant. Because all those signs of pregnancy won't come at all.

Philip
OK, so what's the bad news.

Surgeon
She fell into a coma, we don't know when she will wake up. It can take months or even years before she wakes up, or she won't wake up at all, it all depends on her will. From what I saw, I don't think she wants to wake up at all.

Philip
What? She doesn't want to wake up.

Surgeon
Yes, she needs something to make her wake up.

Philip
Can I go see her?

Surgeon
Yes.
(Philip left)

Isabella
Doctor, can I come in to see the  patient, Andrew Edwardo

Doctor
Yes, you can. Am just checking up on him, I'll soon take my leave

Isabella
(Sit beside Andrew, who is still lying on the bed) How is he doing, any complications

Doctor
No, the bullet didn't hit a delicate spot. He got shot in the arm. he will be fine when it heals, he'll use a sling till it heals.
