Chapter 19: Into the forbidden zone
"I have no information for you," the doctor told me the next day.
"I've come back day after day hoping for information or to be able to see them and it's always, 'come back tomorrow.' Am I ever going to know what the hell is going on?" I snapped at him.
"We are close to figuring it out we just need a few more days."
"Can I at least see him?"
"I'm sorry but we can't let you."
"Why not?"
"We just can't."
"Hasn't he wondered why I haven't visited him?"
"He hears you in here everyday. He wants to see you."
"Then why can't I see him?"
"There's nothing I can do."
"That is absolute crap."
"It's just policy, Ms. Harrison." He walked away leaving me alone.
I looked around the lobby. There was no one at the nurses' station. I looked to my left and then to my right. There was no hospital staff around what-so-ever.
I took my chance and ran for it. I ran down the hall and into his room.
He was lying there fast asleep. He looked so peaceful when he was sleeping. It was so weird knowing that he could be terminally ill. I was close to crying.
I sat down on the edge of his bed. I watched him wake up.
"Hey…" He muttered, sleepily. Or it could've been that he was so sick. But he didn't seem to be. "About time you came to visit me."
"They didn't want me to come in. I've been coming here for days trying to see you but they wouldn't let me."
"They've been running tests day in and day out. I don't get it, this was just a side effect of the accident."
"They didn't tell you?"
"Tell me what?"
I felt panicked. He didn't know and I just practically told him. I had no choice but to let him know. "They said that it might be something worse."
"Great…"
"But they're going to figure out what it is and hopefully they'll be able to help you."
"No wonder no one's been in to see me."
"At least I know that it's not just me."
"If they won't let anyone in, how'd you get here?"
"I kind of snuck in."
"Are you going to get in trouble?"
And at that moment, the security came into the room.
"Oh, bloody hell…" I mumbled.
"I take that as a yes," Kwest replied.
"Come with us, Miss Harrison," one security guard said.
I shot Kwest a half-smile before the security guards grabbed me by the arms and walked me out. They led me down the hall and into the doctor's office.
"I told you not to see him," the doctor told me.
"I know but I just had to see him," I explained.
"All that aside, I have good news."
"I swear if you say that you just saved money on your car insurance by switching to Geico, I will scream."
"I just results of the last test back. We finally know what wrong with him."
AN: Uh oh… Okay, so I haven't decided what is wrong with him exactly. If you have any ideas, let me know. I'm staying away from the Cancer idea. I'm busy looking at a website of diseases, so if no one comes up with any idea I'll figure something out soon. Anyways, please R&R!
