A RAY OF LIFE

18.

"Iris...Sarah...she is seizing or something..." Yelled Naomi and all my thoughts of my existence and presence in here just eradicated and my attention, well it completely diverted to the poor Sarah who was struggling for her life.

"Derek.... Sarah..." I yelled at the retreating figure. He turned and ran to us while I ran to the room. She was shivering like she got some epilepsy attack or what. Her eyes were rolled up and mouth open. We held her tightly. I presumed her neurons were disturbed in between the communication, but I never went to medical school so we called the one who did. 911! Okay sorry for being filmy, this is probably not the time for it.

We held her tightly and after like 15 seconds she calmed down and slept back again. Ambulance came again in like 20 minutes. Doctors were checking her, while by now... everybody almost gathered in her room with Mrs.Woods crying again, couldn't blame her anyway as Sarah's seizure attack affected the wound and now there was just blood on her bandage.

"Did you guys talk to her after she came here...about the trauma?" Said one of the doctor who was checking her.

"Yes we did...she was telling us that she saw some.....one...who is.....not here....nowhere....." Derek said difficultly trying his best to not fall in fits of tears. I held his arms but he swiftly jerked it away. I felt betrayed, for no good reason, but it was what it was. Couldn't help it!

"So was that conversation stressful.?" He asked again. Derek cleared his throat reminiscing the happenings and I guess he felt kinda embarrassed to admit that yes it was stressful as nobody was willing to believe her.

"Yeah....yeah kinda was stressful...but later she calmed down....Ire..tell them.." he said hesitantly and then asked me to proceed which I was fearing because obviously they couldn't see me.

"I'm sorry who?" Doctor asked in confusion as much obviously he couldn't find anyone at my place where Derek was waving to proceed at.

"Iris...my girlfriend" he said undoubtly and I smiled a million dollar one...inside out.

"Um...yeah doc...I helped her calm down and she slept in my watch...it seemed ohkay...but would you mind telling what actually happened coz you see her mother over there, she really needs to stop crying." I said as i was getting impatient to know was she fine or not. I guess everybody was.

"Oh yeah well....you suddenly appeared like ghost or what..( and I just chuckled in response weirdly meanwhile everyone were like IS HE MAD OR SOMETHING) my bad...anyways we are trying to make possible cause of her reaction but can't say anything now....will have to take her to the hospital and do a CT scan." He said putting his torch like light back and asking the compounders to take her on the stretcher to hospital.

"Oh and by the way...I think I have seen you before...somewhere..." Said the doctor looking at me confused and I feared the fact that what if he  remembers that I was the Jane Doe of his hospital. I just smiled and shrugged at him.

Derek decided to go with her along with Jeremy again.  I decided to not go although I was probably the second person, after Mrs.Woods, who was impatient about her welfare. After all, I was supposed to be the one instead of her.

"Derek...." I said desperately when he was leaving the house. He turned around with a curled up brow.
"Hm?" He asked.
"Um...nothing..." And I just hugged him. I didn't know what desperate hormones kicked in me and I managed to hang him from going to hospital for his sister's treatment and have my romantic assurance. I just wanted him to not go....how more pathetic could I be. But to my surprise, he held my head close and inhaled for a second and what I felt like kissed my hair too. It was enough for me to let go. I was assured now. Self-obsessed!
