          People screaming, some are crying. A taxi, a ten wheeler truck and a bus. Some are dead on the spot. Emergency ambulance rushed to the area. "Bring all to the emergency room, faster" said the man, who was rescuing a student inside a smashed taxi. The student was in a bad state, her legs were twisted. The rescue team soon brought her fast to the operating room.

          "Nurse Mae, Search her belongings, contact the nearest person as possible" the rescuer commanded as the nurse and the doctor was rushing the patient to the operating room. The nurse first took the identification card of the patient. Entered her name at the system:

Name: Dion Schmitz
Age: 18
Blood type: O
Operation time: 6:45 pm
State of the patient:
          Too much blood loss, twisted legs. Bad state, needs operation as soon as possible.

          The nurse dialed the most recent number in her phone. It doesn't answer, she dialed it for about ten times, but still no one is answering. The nurse looked again for the identification card, to see if there's another person to contact to, and found another number. "Hello, is this Dion's parents?". "Yes, how may I help you?". " This is Heartfelt Hospital, I'm sorry but I'm here to inform, that there had been accident, and your daughter was involved, your daughter is in a bad state."

          The call ended. And in a few minutes, the student's parents arrived at the hospital, and rushed to the nurse station. "Where is my daughter?" The woman asked while crying. "Calm down ma'am, may I know whom you're looking for?" The nurse asked. "Dion Schmitz" she replied. "She's still undergoing operation ma'am, I'll lead the way to the operating room, you can wait outside, until the operation is finished" the nurse replied.

RIAN SCHMITZ

          My daughter, my precious daughter, my only daughter, what happened to you. "Rian, it's going to be okay, it's going to be okay" my husband comforts me. I know we felt the same way, but he still comforts me. I still can't believe that my daughter, this happened to my daughter. "Honey, call Clint, he must know about this, he is her best friend" I said to my husband. Then Zach tried to contact Clint, but no one is answering the call. "He's not answering" Zach told me.

          Three hours passed, the doctor went out of the operating room. I rushed to the doctor, to ask what's my daughter's condition. "The operation is successful, we put back the twisted leg into place, there's a damage to her brain, but she's still fighting, your daughter is a fighter, we can't tell when your daughter will wake up, but for now she's safe" I felt assured after the doctor said that to us. "She'll now be transferred to her room for further monitoring" the doctor added.

          My daughter is now in the room. Both legs being bandaged. And lots of tube being connected to her. The left side of her head is shaved, and I can see a long stitch. My poor daughter. I fall down to the floor crying again. I can't accept my daughter being in that state. It hurts me so much.

          Three days passed, there's still no sign of her waking up.The doctor said, she might be in a coma. I have no contact of Clint also, and her family. I don't know what happened, if they were together that time. Or if my daughter is alone. Where is he, and why is it that he doesn't answer his phone.

CLINT GROSSWEINER

          It has been three days, and tonight we're going home. I wonder what Dion is doing right now. I bet she's missing me so much. I haven't opened my phone yet. I bet my phone will be full of messages from her. So cute of her. "Mom, I'll be heading out for a moment, I'll just buy something, don't worry, it'll be near the hotel" I told mom. Then l left hurriedly. I'm about to buy something for her today. There's a jewelry store I spotted near, I plan to give her a necklace. I scanned through the section of the necklaces. A necklace with a diamond wings pendant caught my eyes. It has a matching ring with the same pendant on it. I decided to buy it. I'm not too excited right? I bought the necklace as a gift, and I bought a ring for my proposal to her. I found myself a bit preparing for the future, and just smiled thinking about it.

          I arrived at the hotel we were staying at, my things were all ready. I laid in my bed. Took my phone and now I'm opening it. I'm a bit surprised there's only one message that came from her.

From my ugly girl:
          Annoying guy, I'm now in a taxi. Don't worry I'll be safe. Take care. Don't misunderstand Okay, but just stay away from strange girls there. Don't even try to get their number I'm going to punch you. I'm just concerned you'll be played. No meaning. Okay bye:)

          This girl really. She's really over protective of me. So cute. As I can scan through my phone. I found that there's a lot of missed call from an unknown number and from Dion's Dad. I wonder what had happened. Maybe it's important, her dad won't call me unless it's important. I'll just call to find out.

Phone Call

          "Hello uncle, I'm sorry my phone was turned off for the past days, I wasn't able to answer the call, I'm in Spain, but tonight I'll be coming home with mom and dad." I explained. "Oh, that's why, you weren't able to pick her up that day" her dad said in a low tone. "Didn't Dion told you that I was going to Spain" I asked. "She..... she wasn't able to tell that to us Clint... Uhm don't be surprised Clint, but Dion was in an accident and she hasn't woke up until that day, it's been three days since the accident" uncle said, I figured out from that tone of him talking that he was crying. And a sudden tear fell out of my eyes, I can't control it, it just falls. Then the call ended.

          I'm walking back and forth of the room, I'm not myself anymore, I'm thinking of Dion's condition. And now I'm crying loudly, shouting Dion's name. "What's going on, lil bro?" My brother rushed to the room as he heard me shout. Now he's looking at me, my brother is staring at while I'm crying so badly. "Dion, bro" I said, I can't finish what I'm saying. He rushed to hug me and he called mom and dad in the room. "Mom, Dad, Dion had an accident, she's not waking up" I said, while still crying. "My girl is not waking up bro" I added. And with that my mom, fell into tears as well. Mom knows everything I feel for Dion, I always open up to mom. "Come here darling" As my mom said that, I rushed to be in her arms. "We'll go to the hospital as soon as we arrive, don't worry we'll see her" mom added.

          As the plane started to depart, I can feel my heart, beat so fast. I'm so nervous and my eyes are still swollen, I just covered my eyes with a black shades. I can't stop thinking about my girl. God, please wake her up. I'm begging you, she's still so young. Her eyes is filled with so much dreams that she wanted to fulfill. Please I'm begging you.
