Betrayed for Love

★ Ivy ★

» OPERATING ROOM »

The doctors were operating on her. They treated her injuries but she lost a lot of blood and Lily donated blood to Ivy.

When she fell, she broke her right hand and they bandaged her head. Her pulse oximeter started beeping really fast and doctors began rushing in.

They put the Defibrillator on her but she didn't wake up. The pulse oximeter went on a straight line and the doctor looked at his watch.

Time of death, 17:00pm; he said and they started removing the wires attached to her. The doctor came out of the operating room and met Arnaldo, Lily, Naomi, Gavin and Dexter having a worried look on their faces.

How's my sister? Lily asked as she went to the doctor and he shook his head.

Why did you shake your head? What happened to Ivy? Naomi asked as tears welled up in her eyes.

She didn't make it. I tried my best but we lost her. I'm sorry; he said and Lily bursted into tears.

She's not dead! You must have made a mistake; Dexter said and he shook his head.

It's not like that Sir. I tried my best to revive her but she gave up and I'm sorry. Please excuse me; he said and bowed at them before leaving.

No!!! She's not dead!!! Lily cried out and Gavin hugged her.

Meanwhile, 

Ivy's eyes squinted as a bright light hit her eyes. She opened her eyes and saw herself in a white place decorated with red roses, yellow sunflowers and purple flowers. 

She got up and looked around as she started walking towards the bush that had a red rose and plucked one out before staring at it.

Where am i? Ivy asked herself as she stared at the rose before putting it on her hair. 

I could have sworn i saw myself falling from a building so why am i here? And where's my sister? Ivy asked again as she looked around.

Lily!! Arnaldo!! Gavin!!! Where are you guys!!!?? Ivy asked and she heard her echo. She looked around again and thought of running out of there.

She started running and running and when she got tired, she stopped by a tree and saw a figure dressed in all white. She advanced towards the figure and tapped him and he turned to stare at her with a smile on his face.

He had brown eyes, black curly hair and pink lips. He looked really cute and his smile alone was so cute.

Who are you? Ivy asked.

I'm Marshal! Margie's son; he said with his cute voice and Ivy gasped.

Really? You're the one that died years ago? And if you're here that means am dead; Ivy said and he nodded.

Yes am her son and you're not dead yet. You can still go back; he said and i scoffed.

What's the use? I would really love to go back because of Ivy but i just don't want to. I was betrayed by my best friend, my mum is a liar and a murderer and my soon to be boyfriend is angry at me; Ivy muttered with tears forming in her eyes.

That doesn't mean you shouldn't go back. You have people that loves you. Just because you had a fight with Arnaldo that doesn't mean you should leave him. Relationships go through challenges and i think that's what's happening with you and Arnaldo. You can't just run away from your problems, you have to face them. Also Lily and Naomi are there and they love you a lot. They'll be heartbroken if you leave them. Naomi sees you as her one and only true friend and soon you guys will be besties. Your mum also loves you. Do you think she's not feeling remorseful right now? She loves you and your sister so much and though she made a lotta mistakes, she still loves you and she's heartbroken you guys left her; he said and Ivy just stared at him.

How does he know everything? She asked herself.

You're shocked i know right? He asked and she nodded.

That's because I'm watching everyone of you guys and i want tell you one thing about Arnaldo; he said.

What is it? She asked.

Don't leave him Ivy? He loves you a lot. He has gone through a lot and you leaving him will add another pain he's feeling right now; he said.

I know he loves me and i love him too but explain what you mean by saying if i leave him, it will add another pain to him; she said and he sighed.

Follow me; he said and started walking and she followed him. They arrived at a river and Ivy looked at him. 

Why are we here? She asked.

Just look! He said and waved his hands on the water and a picture of Arnaldo showed on it.

It showed Ivy how Arnaldo was being bullied and beaten by some of his class mates. How he would cry himself to sleep because of all the abused he got from his parents. How he celebrated his birthdays alone. How he graduated but his parents never showed up. How he would fall sick but his parents didn't care and all that was because he wasn't really their son. 

Marshal waved his hands and the video stopped.

He suffered a lot. He has been lonely all his life and i won't leave him; Ivy said as she wiped her tears.

It's good you've seen what Arnaldo has been through so it's time you leave before it's too late; he said and she smiled.

Thanks for your help; she said and hugged him and he hugged her back. They broke the hug and he smiled before waving his hands and she went back to the real world.

Ivy shot her eyes open and saw herself in the hospital covered with a white clothing. She was on a stretcher and where they were taking her to was what she didn't know.

Nurse! She called as she removed the clothing and they screamed in fear as they ran away.

Why are they running? I asked myself as i sat up. 

Lily, Arnaldo, Gavin, Dexter and Naomi ran towards me and Lily hugged me immediately she saw me.

Ivy!! You're awake but how? Lily asked and all eyes were on me.

It's because of marshal, Margie's son, he saved me; i said and they gasped.

So you died temporarily? Naomi asked.

Yep! Ivy muttered.

Let's take her to a ward to check if she's alright; the doctor said.

Okay! They muttered and they started taking Ivy to a ward. 

The doctor checked on me and after confirming i was okay, he left the ward.

Since my right hand was broken, he insisted that i wear a cast for one week before taking it off.

I sat up immediately my friends entered the ward and they all hugged me except for Arnaldo and i was a bit sad about that. 

Ivy! Am so happy you're okay. I missed you; Naomi said and i smiled.

Oh really! I didn't know we got that close; i said.

Hey you're my bestie remember so i love and care about you; she said.

Awwn that's so nice. Well having you as a bestie isn't a bad idea so i accept; i said and she smiled and hugged me.

Thanks; she said as she broke the hug.

I'm so happy you're awake Ivy; Gavin said with a smile.

Me too; Dexter said with a smile and i smiled at them.

Thanks guys; i said and looked at Lily to see her glaring at me.

Do you think I've forgiven you for trying to kill yourself and leave me all alone? Lily asked with an angry look.

I'm sorry sis! I wasn't myself that time and I'm really sorry. Please don't be mad; I said and she walked close to me and hugged me.

I love you sis! So don't do that again; she said and i hugged her back.

I love you too and i promise not to do it again; i said and broke the hug.

We smiled at each other and Arnaldo came forward.

Can i speak to her alone? He asked and they all nodded before exiting the room.

What's the matter? I asked and he walked towards me with an angry look. He came towards me and hugged me and I was shocked.

Do you want me to die of heart attack huh? You know i love you so freaking much so why did you plan on leaving me? He asked immediately he broke the hug and sat on the bed besides me.

That's because i thought you left me. I'm sorry; i said and he smiled.

I will never leave you no matter what but pls don't leave me as well; he said and she nodded.

Can a kiss solve our little issue? Ivy asked with a smirk.

Of course; he replied and gave her a peck on the lip.

Hey that kiss was too short; i complained.

But that's what you asked for; he said and she leaned in and kissed him.

She was about breaking it when he held her waist and deepened the kiss. They stayed like that for a while kissing like their life depended on it and they stopped to catch their breaths.

I love you! He said.

I love you too! I replied.

So we're official right? He asked and she nodded.

Awesome!! He said and they both hugged each other before breaking the hug.

Arnaldo got in bed with her and they stayed cuddling together under the thin covers with a smile plastered on both of their faces.
