Chapter Ten
Just believe
Vanessa was sitting by Zac's bed, her head was resting on her hand and she was watching Zac. Her stomach hurt from crying so much and her head hurt from thinking about being without Zac. Mrs. Efron came in the room and sat on the other side of Zac. Her eyes were red; probably from crying.
"Vanessa…" Started Mrs. Efron
"When are you letting him go?" Asked Vanessa, she knew exactly were this conversation was going and it wasn't in a good direction.
Mrs. Efron sighed; she knew Vanessa knew what was going on the second she walked in the room.
"Tomorrow at two." Mrs. Efron said quietly
Vanessa shook her head in disagreement and continued to look at Zac. She didn't bother looking at Mrs. Efron. Mrs. Efron stood up when Vanessa said nothing, and then she left the room. Vanessa held onto Zac's hand a little tighter. She put her head down and cried, making her stomach hurt even more. She looked up when she felt a comforting hand on her back. Patty was standing behind her.
"Vanessa, you have to stop crying or you're going to make yourself sick. If you are sick wont be able to come in here and see Zac wake up." She said with a small, but sad smile.
"They are letting him go tomorrow. Do you think he'll wake up by then?" Asked Vanessa as she caught her breath and tried to stop crying.
"Do you love him?" Asked Patty even though she already knew the answer
"Yes."
"Then you need to keep believing he will wake up and you can't stop loving him even though everyone else says he's going to die." Said Patty
"I'll love him for the rest of my life." Said Vanessa
"Then I think he'll wake up. I always say love conquers all and as long as your love is strong I think it's possible." Said Patty
"Thank you. That makes me feel a little better."
"It's my job." Said Patty with a smile
"Patty, we need you in room 302." Said a nurse who was passing the room
Vanessa stayed for another fifteen minutes and then she said goodbye to Ashley, Monique, Lucas, and Corbin who were outside. She drove home and went to sleep.
Sorry that it's another short chapter, but I'll make up for it in the next.
Much love,
