I'm sitting in a hospital room. More specifically, an eerily silent hospital room with Roxanne. My Roxanne. She looks beautiful. Absolutely stunning, even with all the nasty bruises and cuts. I want to hunt down whoever did this to her and make them suffer so, so much. And at the same time I know I will not leave this chair until she wakes up. I smile at the constant beep, reminding me she is alive. The healer tells us that she might not make it, that we could lose her. I feel tears prick at my eyes and I remember reading somewhere that sometimes people can hear you, even if their knocked out. I close my eyes in a desperate attempt to hold on to my emotions. I slowly begin to speak.
"Roxy … I-I-I love you. I have since I was 16. I can't believe I just said that out loud. But anyway … the point I am trying to make here is that I miss you, I need you. I feel like I can't go on without you and when you are in the room I can barely breathe. And I need you to know this because you can't die. You have to fight. Please, please fight. For me."
"That's a lot of emotion for such a small person."
I turn towards the voice and to my horror, its source is Oncle*Harry.
"Uh-Gah-Er" I gasp like a fish out of water, "How long have you been standing there?"
"Long enough to hear 'I love you'." He calmly replied .
"Uh… So you're not mad or think I've gone off my rocker ?"
"No, I'm perfectly fine with it. But you do need to keep in mind that Roxy might be straight."
"Right." I reply with a slightly sad tone to my voice.
"But she could very well be gay too. You never know."
"Yeah, she could!" I am suddenly very uplifted.
"Ok, so I'm going to take off, but let us know if there's any changes, ok?"
"Alright."
He turned to leave.
"Oh and Oncle Harry? Please don't tell anyone.
He smiled. "Not a soul, Dominique. Not a soul."
*Oncle is uncle in french .
