After a while of patting Melanie, Kyle stepped out to check on his brother that was in the next ward.
However, on reaching there, he was quite surprised to see the doctor and nurses in the ward with his brother.
"Doctor! What's wrong?" he barged in and dashed towards his brother.
"Please, spare us a few seconds," Doctor Hudson answered and beckoned to the nurses to lead him out.
Kyle ran his hand through his hair outside the ward. Nothing dare happen to his brother when things had gone bad the way it was.
He had missed this brother of his very much, he missed the way he teased him and the way he whined about everything to him.
He had been trying to hold it in ever since his brother had been in such a state, he wanted to act strong for his sister-in-law and twin sister.
Seeing the Doctors and Nurses by his brother, he felt like his own life was also coming to an end. There was no fucking way he was going to be normal if anything had to happen to his brother, he could never take it. Never.
Ever since their dad passed away, Flynn had stood like a father and mother figure to him and Elle. He had always supported and rooted for them all the time. There was no way he could let go of this sweet man. He loved his brother so much and he regretted not telling him sooner.
Ugh, what a life.
"Hey," Kyle jerked out of his thought as soonn as he felt a gentle poke his shoulder.
"Oh, you are here. Hi," Kyle greeted Camila and Reld.
"Is anything wrong? Why are you outside? Is Flynn okay?" Reld asked him.
"I don't know. I was with Melanie and just stepped out to check on him and I met the doctor and nurses here. As you know, I was told to step out," Kyle explained as he
clasped his hands together and looked back at Flynn's ward.
"Where is Melanie?" Camila looked around.
"She is in that ward," Kyle pointed at the ward beside Flynn's ward.
"Why? What is wrong with her?" Camila queried and watched Kyle who inhaled deeply.
"S…she was kidnapped."
"What!? How? We didn't hear anything about it," Reld removed his hand from his pocket.
"We couldn't publish such news. We found her this morning," Kyle answered.
"Who kidnapped her?" Camila bit her lower lips.
"Hazel, she was in cohort with Zach Tordoff," Kyle answered.
"What the fvck! Oh, that's why she was declared wanted!" Reld exclaimed and Kyle nodded his head.
"How is she? I hope no harm is done," Camila said obviously worried.
"Um, I can't say for sure," Kyle slowly looked away.
"Huh?" Camila raised a brow and turned to leave.
"I will go check on her," she added.
**
Camila entered slowly and was quite perplexed to see Melanie crying on her mother's shoulder. Did anything go wrong? She couldn't help but wonder.
"Good afternoon…" Camila bit her lower lips slowly as she greeted.
"Oh, Camila," Melanie pulled away from her mother gently as she wiped her tears off hurriedly.
"I heard what happened. Hello, Mrs. Tatum," Camila bowed slightly at Melinda who stood from the bed.
"Hi," Melinda smiled at her then walked towards Elle and beckoned to Elle to leave the two women to talk.
"I will be back, daughter. I want to check on your husband," Melinda held Elle and they both walked out of the ward.
"Sweetie, Kyle told me what happened. I'm so sorry you had to go through this," Camila said as she settled on the bed beside Melanie.
"Thank you," Melanie swallowed hard.
"Are you okay? I hope no harm is done?" Camila asked, obviously concerned.
"Camila…" Melanie groaned.
"Did something happen?" Camila took her hand in his.
"A lot of things happened. I don't even know how to explain this to Flynn when he wakes up," Melanie mumbled as a drop of tears escaped her eyes.
"Babe…"
"I…I suffered a miscarriage," Melanie whispered as she bowed her head.
"Gracious God! I'm so sorry to hear this, babe," Camila fondled her hand.
"Flynn will be so disappointed in me," Melanie began to cry and Camila hurriedly pulled her in a hug.
"You know better than anyone that Flynn is not like that. In fact, you know how sorry he is going to be. He is going to blame himself when he wakes up to the news. You know better," Camila stroked her hair gently.
"He was very happy when he found out that I was pregnant. It was evident on his face. My husband loved the fact that he was going to be a father. I ruined everything. I couldn't protect our baby," Melanie cried. Camila broke the hug gently and wiped her tears gently.
"This is not your fault, babe and you know. Hazel and Zach will pay dearly for this when Flynn wakes up. He is never going to let it slide, I swear. So, you better stop crying before I get annoyed," Camila wiped her tears and smiled at her.
"Thank you," Melanie forced a smile.
"Um! I can't wait to see you very happy again. I mean it," Camila shook her head and smiled.

"I can't help but wonder why the doctors are taking so long in there," Elle groaned and at that moment, the door of the ward opened and Doctor Hudson stepped out with his nurses trailing behind him.
"Did something happen?" Kyle asked but soon creased his brow in confusion when he saw the smile on the doctor's face.
"Congratulations, Mr. Flynn Harlan is out of the state of comatose," Doctor Hudson announced and watched the mixed expression on everyone's face.
"D…do you mean what you just said or you are just trying to pull our legs?" Kyle mumbled.
"Haha, who jokes with that? Mr. Harlan is out of danger and is very stable now," Doctor Hudson said and Elle fell to the ground as she inhaled deeply.
"Sweet Jesus!" Elle cried out.
"We've given him some injections, so he is sleeping at the moment, he would be awake in the next five to six hours, and it's very possible that he won't wake up till tomorrow morning. No worries, he is just sleeping," Doctor Hudson smiled.
"Gosh, thank you very much, Doctor Hudson!" Kyle exclaimed.
"I must appreciate you all for believing in me and the patient. I'll leave now, please do well to let me know when he wakes up. Thank you," Doctor Hudson bowed slightly and turned to leave.
Kyle unconsciously pulled Reld into a tight hug till the latter pushed him away then he hugged Melinda.
"Mum, this is the best news I've ever heard ever since I've been given birth to," Kyle grinned and pulled Elle who was on her knees up then hugged her.
"Sister-in-law! I need to break this news to her!" Elle exclaimed and pulled away from Kyle then dashed towards Melanie's ward while Kyle followed swiftly.
Melinda watched them enter Melanie's ward, smiled then headed to Flynn's ward while Reld followed.
**
"Melanie!" Elle shouted as soon as she entered the ward.
"I have news for you, news that will make you forget all of your worries!" Elle screamed and Melanie creased her brow.
"There is no news that can make me forget my worries. The only news that can make me forget my worries is that my husband is out of the coma, so…" Melanie stopped halfway, and widened her eyes.
"Yes! Brother is out of Coma!" Kyle screamed.
"Y…you guys are not trying to tease me right now, right?" Melanie stammered.
"Lanie, I swear, Flynn is…"
Melanie interrupted Elle by screaming then began to cry. She forcefully removed the needle that was in her hand and jumped out of the bed.
"Where are you going?" Kyle stopped her.
"To see my husband, of course," Melanie answered breathlessly.
"Come on. Doctor Hudson said he gave him some injections so he won't wake up till the next morning," Kyle said.
"But I can just sit by his side till he wakes up," Melanie mumbled.
"You should get enough rest, you don't want him to be worried when he sees you like this, do you?"
"What is wrong with me?" Melanie furrowed her brow.
"You look horrible. Get enough rest, you will go to him after," Kyle said and Melanie fell to the ground slowly.
"Flynn…" she whispered as she clutched her hands to her chest.
==THE NEXT MORNING.
Everyone, excluding Reld and Camila who had promised to return later in the day, stood in the ward silently, waiting for Flynn to wake up.
Melanie sat on the chair beside his bed and took his hand in hers, murmuring words of prayer silently.
After many minutes had passed, Melanie felt his hand move in hers and she hurriedly looked up at him.
"Flynn?" she whispered and kept looking at his face.
"Flynn!" Melanie screamed as soon as Flynn opened his eyes and she jumped out of the chair.
"Babe, can you hear me?" Melanie panicked as Flynn stared at her blankly, then Kyle pressed the bell and waited for the doctor to arrive.
