Ahmed walk though the seemingly endless hallways of the hospital, looking for the room of the miracle girl, Amy Fleming. He was no fool, he knew her family was not overly welcoming towards him, nor should they be, after all it was his horse that landed her here. However, he felt the need to see her, there was just something about the talented young woman that drew him in, not in a romantic way, but of pure awe of her ability.
He finally reached her room, upon entering he recognized the steady beeping of the heart rate monitor and for only a second his mind was back in his father's last days. Ahmed remembered the pain and grief that followed him for months, until Amy had forced him to work through it with Emir. He owed his happiness to her.
Ty looked over his shoulder for only a moment when he walked in before turning back to Amy's still form without a word. Ahmed stopped a few feet away from them as if afraid to get to close to them, feeling as if he was intruding on something private.
"You must hate me" Ahmed said after several empty moments, unable to stay silent any longer.
"No" Said Ty "Believe me I want to, but I can't"
Ahmed walked closer, taking the seat beside Ty "Why" he questioned.
"It's what she does" Ty said "She helps horses, no matter what else is going on, she needs to help them in any way she can, It's who she is" He smiled "When I first came to Heartland, years ago, I scared her horse by revving my truck and she just gallops up behind me and demanded to know what kind of idiot does that"
Ty turned to look at him "I want to blame you for everything, but she knew the risk. If she didn't she wouldn't be the girl I fell in love with" He turned back to Amy "When I met her I didn't trust anyone, I was in a bad place that I never thought I would get out of. She had just lost her mom a few weeks before we met and she was lost, but even at fifteen she was the strongest person I have ever met. And she was so stubborn, even back then, she heals horses and people, I wouldn't be here without her"
Ahmed was silent, never would he have thought that Amy had once overcome the tragic loss of a parent as he had at a much younger age. He wanted to say something, but unable to say anything comforting to the younger man so he simply said what he know was true "You are a lucky man"
Ty nodded, looking at the woman he loved with so much care that Ahmed quietly left the young couple alone.
