Revenge part II
Melissa ran as fast as she could, pushing everyone who dare to step on her way. She stops the minute she sees a nurse.
"Excuse me. I'm looking for Alexander Williams"
"Room 13" the nurse said with a kind smile
Melissa walks a little more relaxed than when she arrived, she breaths in a out walking towards the emergency room. She stops for a second when she sees Kelly with her back against the wall, waiting for someone to come out.
"What the hell are you doing here?" Melissa asks rudely
"I heard what happened to Alex"
"How and When?"
"Is on the news"
"What? How..." Melissa thinks for a minute "of course, it was outside the White House, everyone would know"
"I'm really sorry, Mel" Kelly said with a sad look on her face "I know how much he meant to you"
"He is not dead, asshole!" she walks inside the white room where Alex was. He was asleep, apparently, his head resting on his left side. A few bruises were quite visible and a bandage in his right arm. "Who did this to you, Al?"
"You haven't call me Al for years" he says as he open his eyes
"How are you feeling?" she sits next to him on the bed.
"Sleepy. Pain killers are helping a bit"
"Can you remember what happened?"
"I hit my head pretty hard but I'm sure my brain can process everything right"
"Sorry, I didn't mean..."
"it's ok..." he pushes himself up " I walked out from your office, I took the keys out of my pocket...I look at both side of the road, nothing was coming to I crossed the street...a car showed up out of nowhere, it was pretty fast so I couldn't stop."
"Who brought you in?"
"What?" he looked confused "you mean it wasn't you?"
"No, I heard what happened and I came as soon as I could"
"There was a woman by my side and I thought it was you"
"Hell no...Alex, you need to think for a minute, if I didn't bring you in. then who was it?"
He looks outside the window and close his eyes "I can't...I can't see her" he looks at Melissa again "sorry"
"Its ok .you need to get some rest" she walks towards the door, he takes her hand before she could reach the handle
"You're gonna stay, right?"
"Don't be such a baby, there are no monsters in the hospital" she laughs and close the door.
Melissa looks around the ER room thinking what to do next; she sees a nurse writing in a folder and gets close to her.
"Excuse me? Were you here when the man from this room was brought in?"
"Yes, besides of the paramedics, you say?"
"Yes, besides of them...was there a woman?"
"Oh .yeah. There was this blonde woman who looked really scared...we thought she was his wife but then she ran away"
"Really? Did you hear her name or something to identify her?"
"Identify her?" the nurse laughs at Melissa's question "girl, you were just talking to her! Outside the room...a blonde"
"Kelly..." Melissa whispers
