Chapter Four
Serenity was kept in the coma for two weeks and in that time her body was healing enough for Dr. Faust to order that she be allowed to wake up. As Dr. Faust told her family, she would have to learn to walk, talk, feed and dress herself again because of the damage done to her body. The doctor also told her father and brother that she would probably be afraid of you being you're men so be ready for it if she flinches or doesn't look either of you in the eyes. She has a very long road ahead of her and she will need all the love and support all of you can give her. Hank, Mary, Joey and Seto were standing around her bed when Serenity opened her eyes. As she looked at her loved ones she saw tears running down their faces. Serenity was looking for something else and Mary understood and asked Seto " go get Bakura." Serenity held out her hand to her daddy and Hank took her hand in his and softly said " welcome back to us baby." Serenity was still having trouble speaking and she just smiled up at him. The door opened and when she looked over there, she saw Bakura and she smiled and held out her hand to him. Bakura walked over and took her hand in his and she squeezed his hand. Bakura looked to Mary as if to say, what does she want? Before Mary could say anything they heard a very faint "thank you" coming from Serenity. Bakura bent over and said "you're welcome" and then he kissed her forehead. They visited with her till she showed signs of getting tired and her mother said "that they would come back tomorrow" and they all gave Serenity a kiss and all of them left except her mother. Mary looked at her daughter and said "you know that you have a long hard road ahead of you don't you?" Serenity shook her head yes. Tomorrow they start you on Physical Therapy and it will be hard but I know that you are strong enough to deal with whatever they give you. Serenity smiled at her mom and whispered "got it from you." Mary laughed and said "us Wheeler women are tough as leather." She kissed her daughter and told her she would be back with dad tonight, and then she left so that he daughter could get some rest.
Today was Serenity's first day in Physical Therapy and at first she didn't want to do it, but then the door opened and Bakura walked in and he knelt down in front of her and said "yes there will be pain, but in the end you will be able to walk again isn't that worth it?" Serenity wiped the tears from her face and looked at the Therapist and said "lets do it." She had Physical Therapy three days a week and everyday Bakura was there to cheer her on. Serenity began to have real feelings for this man and it scared the hell out of her, and she needed to talk to her mother about it. Serenity also had Speech Therapy to help her speak better and at times she would get so exasperated, but then she would remember what Bakura said and she just kept trying till she got it right. One day while Mary was visiting her, Serenity decided to talk to her about her feelings for Bakura. As Mary listened to her daughter she smiled and said "baby you need to take it slow and easy and if after awhile you still have these feelings then together we will speak to him and find out how he feels about you." Serenity smiled back at her mother and said "thanks for being my mommy, I love you." As Mary held her daughter she already kind of knew that there was something between her daughter and the man who found and saved her life and she knew that she needed to speak to him before her daughter got her feelings hurt.
