Kalinda, Diane, and I were waiting in the waiting room for about an hour until we finally got some news. My phone had been ringing for the last half hour, they were all from Peter wondering where I was and why I was not at the luncheon. I ignored them all and finally sent him a text saying to check the news and put two and two together and that I would be home when I was ready and to not wait. I also called the kids to let them know that I would be home later.
The doctor finally came out of the operating room and was walking our way.
"Are you three ladies waiting on Will Gardner?" ask the doctor
"Yes" we all replied in unison
"Okay" he replied with a smile "I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is we were able to remove all 3 bullets and he is alive. The bad news is this will be a very long and treacherous journey for him. He has lost a lot of blood and we have put him into a medical induced coma to help with the healing process. The next 24 hours are critical to his recovery. Once we see that his body is healing we will then begin to wake him up from his coma. You may visit him now but please one at a time and I will extend the visiting hours so you may take your time."
"Thank you doctor" I reply as he leads us to Wills room
Once we reach his room the doctor says his good bye. Kalinda goes in first while Diane and I wait outside in the near bye chairs.
"I can't live without him" I say to Diane
"I know" Diane replies "what will you do when he wakes up?"
"I… I… I don't know for sure right now but I know the first step is to talk everything out with him. I know I have burned many bridges these last few months, but I just can't think of a life without him in it. We have been best friends since our first year in law school. Not only will I lose the man I love but my best friend. I don't think I could live another day without him in my life." I say as a few tears fall down my cheek.
"He loves you."
I stare at Diane, "No… No he doesn't… not with all the stuff I have put him through. Now if you would have said that a few months ago I would believe you but not now… I mean he can't..." I ramble
"Alicia, listen to me… yes you have put him through hell these last couple of months but he still loves you. He can't stand to look at you because if he does he won't be able to shield the love he has for you. It is so hard for him to hate you. We had a discussion a couple days ago about how he is so tired of fighting. He just wants it to all be over so you could be friends again. He doesn't understand why you put him through what you did because he thought that you knew that he loved you."
With that Kalinda exits his room and says she has to go and to let her know if anything happens.
Diane is next to go in. While she is in with Will I have to start mentally preparing myself so that I don't break down when I step into his room. While Diane is in with him I start thinking to myself… does he really love me? Do I love him? Of course I do… If I didn't then I would not be here right now. So what is my next step? Do I confess my love to him and ask if he will have me back into his life? Well only if it was that easy... I still have huge obstacles that I have to face. First off my husband, then the children, and our firms, and even if he will take me back. If what Diane told me was true I sure hope he does. While I am rambling off in my own mind Diane walks out of his room.
"I have to go back to the firm and let the partners know what is going on. I will be back later tonight. But if anything changes call me right away."
"Okay Diane" I reply as I get up to give a quick hug
"I hope you two figure this out" Diane whispers into my ear
"I do too" I reply as I walk into Wills room.
