Arnold sat in silence. What else could he do? If the doctors could do nothing to save her then he will just have to accept it. It was painful for Arnold to think about Helga dying, he had this feeling that just ached in the thought of her going away forever. He wanted to cry more but couldn't, there were no tears left.
The doctor stood up, asked him if he was ok again, and left the waiting room. The waiting room door opened and many rushing feet came in. Arnold looked up. It was all his classmates. He wiped his eyes and tried to calm down. Gerald moved upfront and sat in the soft, blue, chair next to Arnold. He placed his left hand on Arnold's shoulder. "You going to be ok man?" Gerald asked. Arnold dipped his head looking at his knees. He nodded.
After a moment of silece everone sat down and began chattering. Arnold wouldn't tell them she may be in an ireversable coma. He didn't want to bring their moods down, he didn't want them suffering too. No one knew. Everyone was concerned but no one truely knew. Felt his sadness.
Arnold knew there was a chance of survival so he tried to cheer himself up. The waiting rooms' clock hands moved in circles repeatadly. It was now 6:00 p.m. People started pulling out snacks, pop, money, they were getting hungry. No one left. Gerald, Phoebe, and Arnold needed the emotional support so they did not want to leave. Time went on further and before they all knew it, it was already 9 o'clock. The teens brought duffel bags, filled with sleep ware. Some went into the bathroom and changed into their pajamas and pulled out pillows and blankets. Everyone was staying home from school.
They all knew it was going to be a long wait.
