Secret Love

chapter 33

Coincidentally, Dad was brought to the same hospital as Serena and it wasn't that far from home. I spotted Lisa and Jackie at the reception, the moment we stepped in the hospital and I half run to them.

" How is he?!" I asked the second I got to them.

" We don't know yet... we just got here and they took him to the emergency room," Jackie said.

I ran past them heading to the emergency room and they  all followed. I made an attempt to get in but a short nurse was fast to stand in my way.

" Am sorry but you are not allowed in there."

" But , that's my Dad in there.... he needs me, " I said tears still streaming down my face.

" She's right Sky,  let's just wait out here and let them do their job, " Jay said pulling me to him as i rested my head on his chest sniffling. " Your Dad will be fine. "

" You can't wait out here either, " the short annoying nurse said and I really wanted to strangle her so bad!

Why won't they let me in? Am his daughter after all and where the hell is Ethan?!

Jay took my hand and started walking but I din't move. " Am not going anywhere ."

The nurse stood there watching me  and i could tell I was really starting to get  on her nerves.

" Okay, am going to say this one last time , You are not supposed to be here. I mean there's a waiting area for a reason, and I have a lot of work. Don't make me call security to throw you out, " She said glaring at me.

"What? You can't do that! she just want to be with her Dad. We are not doing anything wrong here!" Lisa said furiously glaring  back down at her.

" Okay..enough of this drama. Lets just go," Jay said placing his hand on my waist and this time I obliged.

An hour had already passed but nothing! No one was telling us anything and my feet were starting to hurt from all the pacing around.  Jay and the others were trying their best to make me relax but there was no way that was happening.

How was I supposed to relax when my Dad was fighting for his life and the doctors don't want to tell us anything!

What was taking them so damn long?

I kept calling Ethan but it went straight to voicemail and that made me even more nervous . My heart was beating really fast and my hands were literally shaking waiting for news, I felt like I was walking on  hot coal. I can't loose my Dad... haven't I been through enough already?!

"How did this happen?" Jay asked Lisa who was sitted ,tapping her legs nervously.

" I was at the counter working as usual when he stormed out of the office. He was talking on the phone and was in a hurry and I swear i heard him call Ethans name on the phone. As soon as he was out, and a few feet away from the restaurant,  we heard a loud thud and people screaming. When we went to check, Mr Banks was on the ground uncouncious and the car that hit him was far gone, " Lisa said.

"No one saw who hit him, maybe the car plates or anything? " I asked.

" No one saw anything, " Jackie said chewing  on her nails. This was a habit of hers especially when she was nervous or scared.

" Family of Calvin Banks," A doctor said and we rushed over to him.

" We are his family, " Jay said taking my hand ." How is he? "

" One of his legs was hit badly and we had to operate, but no need to worry the operation was successful," The doctor said and I let out a  huge sigh of relief. "There was no internal bleeding but we still have to observe him for at least 24 hours...He's still unconscious, and yeah, you can go see him but one at a time. "
