"Carlos? Oh good heavens, CARLOS!"
Carlos…
"Doctor! Get a doctor in here!"
My sweet, precious Carlos…
"Doctor, I think…"
Please…
"I think he´s waking up!"
Don´t leave me…
Carlos´ eyes fluttered open. He blinked, then had to shut them again. After being in the dark for so long, he could barely tolerate the strong glow of the fluorescent lights above him.
He heard excited voices, steady beep-beep-beeps of a machine. Hands were touching him, squeezing his fingers, kisses were placed on his forehead.
Faces…all around him were faces and gradually he started to recognize them.
Mother, father, aunt, brother, sister in law, uncle, friends…family…
They told him he had been in a coma for three years.
Car accident.
It messed him up pretty badly. They weren´t sure if he´d ever wake up.
Carlos felt numb. He felt sick. He wanted to bury his face into the pillow and cry. Scream.
´NO!´ He wanted to say. ´NO! TAKE ME BACK!´
But he had no idea what that could´ve meant.
