VINCE WAS HAPPY JUST BEING NEXT TO SIDNEY
Before Sidney could run away from him, Vince grab her pulling her straight into his arms, feeling her body vibrating the way she was trembling.
Reaching down his head taking her lips in his, kissing her slowly until he gets a response then he deepens his kiss. With the sweet sensation that spreads through his entire body causing this raging fire, Vince felt this joy deep within. Whispering, "I miss you so much."
Releasing her when he felt satisfied that she had enjoyed the kiss, just as much as he, he then said to her, "Now we have to talk and after that, if you still want to go, I won't stop you."
Vince only heard her whispers, "It's James who sent them," then her body felt heavy against his,
"Sidney, honey," tightened his hold and then lifted her, walking out the alley and reaching the main street, quarrying as he passed the few people who were hurrying, where he could find a medical facility?
Following the direction that was given, Vince hurry along, 'Now that I find her I cannot lose her. The tears were flowing as the rain continues to pour heavily. Vince had reached the medical centre in no time. She had lost so much weight from last Friday to today that carrying her wasn't that difficult.
Entering the medical centre Vince calls out, "Hello, anyone, I need a doctor my wife got shot."
Hearing the doctor saying to bring her this way, Vince follows quickly, Looking at her as he thinks, 'She was so enigmatic a little while ago and now she lies lifeless in his arms.'
With the both of us drenched to the bones. Vince keep a close look at how the was attending to her, Hearing when he said, "She needs to get blood immediately."
Giving the doctor permission to do a blood transfusion. Hearing the Doctor saying we have to see if it's the same blood type.
Allowing them to take some blood to do the test he then took the towel the nurse was reaching out to him so he could dry himself.
Feeling that the blood testing was taking so long but the doctors were busy prepping her for surgery. Vince hurried and dry her feet and then her hand because they had already screened her to put on the gown for the surgery.
When the doctor get the okay the nurse led him lay on the bed next to where the doctor had arranged for him. When they heard he had the same blood type. Vince close his eyes feeling such relief, also he kept his eyes closed feeling the sting from the needle.
While the transfusion was taking place the doctors did the surgery on her hand removing the bullet. With his eyes still closed all he kept hearing was "This is just the beginning, she won't stop until I die."
Opening his eyes suddenly asked the nurse who was attending to the transfusion, "Excuse me, what did my wife just say?"
"Sorry Sir, it seems you had drifted off for a few minutes you were snoring."
"I may have, but my wife was saying something?"
"Sir, your wife is heavily sedated and I heard nothing and I never left your side, I am sure you were dreaming."
With that he felt the nurse remove the needle then the seven bangs came. Vince knew he still had to get gas, and then go to his car. Recalling he rested the gas container at the side of a wall near where the fight was taking place.
'George was right she can be a beast at the time and she fights well from what I observed the few minutes. But how is it those men had so many cuts on their body and from what I observed she had none when they had the knife.'
When the Doctor said, "She will be okay now and will be asleep for a few more hours, but when she wakes up you can leave."
"Thank you, Doctor," seizing that opportunity to get the gas for his car, then change and return to the medical centre, she was still under the anaesthetic.
Calling both families informing them that he had found her, and will be returning home the Saturday.
Vince was saddened to hear the news of her mom had taken ill and was hospitalized. Sitting quietly by the bed holding her hand. He closes his eyes, thanking God for answering his prayer.
The room was dark when he felt the pulling on his hand, opening his eyes, she was saying something. Getting the nurse, Vince let her know that she has woken up.
Only to hear the nurse whispering, "It seems she is dreaming." Stroking her face just happy when she whispers his name.
"Oh sweetheart, I am so happy," feeling alive once more just being next to her, the song has not stopped in his head, and he knows it has not stopped in her head either.
Because I am definitely sure she didn't see me when she was struggling with those two tugs, it could only mean she is still hearing the song."
Whispering near her ears, "I don't know if you will return home with me, but if you do, you will make me the happiest man in the world."
Resting his head to touch hers, having the chair near the bed head seeing she was almost to the edge of the bed.
Her constant mumbling of words sounds gibberish, unable to comprehend one single word, but content in his heart just to be with her. Praying and thanking the Lord silently, Vince closes his eyes.
Hearing his phone ringing, seeing it was almost ten-o-clock, Vince answers it silently. "Yes honey, your sister is sleeping, don't cry she is fine."
Resting the phone near her mouth then said, "That's your sister talking in her dreams, do you want to say anything to her? Okay, I will rest the phone near her ear, you know she answers in her sleep, right?"
Hearing her laugh, "Good girl," placing the phone near her ear once more, hearing Haley saying how she loves her and misses her.
