My Family's Secret

Koma

The doctor and several nurses ran into the ICU.

I quickly asked the doctor. "What's up, doctor?"

"Monitor showed that Ms. Alexa's health was declining and she is now having seizures. We'll excuse you for checking the patient." The doctor went straight into the ICU.

30 Minutes later. The doctor came out of the ICU. We all went straight to him.

"How is my wife doctor?"

"My sister's fine, right?"

"My granddaughter is conscious, right?"

"Quiet, gentlemen. Miss Alexa's seizures have stopped but her health chart is still declining. Try to talk to him every day because even though he is in a coma, the patient can still hear what you are talking about and pray a lot. Hopefully there is a miracle from God because until now we have not been able to find an antidote for the poison" he explained.

"Is the type of poison known?" ask Alvaro.

"No, but we concluded that this is a poison that makes a person sleep long and gradually weaken the organs in the body" replied the doctor.

"Please find an antidote to the poison as soon as possible, doctor. I will pay whatever the cost as long as my granddaughter can survive" said grandfather.

"We will definitely try our best. Now start talking to the patient. Come in one at a time and don't forget to wear sterile clothes that have been prepared." The doctor also left.

"Let grandfather come in first" said grandfather.

We welcome the grandfather first.

***POV AUTHOR***

Inside the ICU. Grandfather approached Alexa who was lying weakly. His heart was very sick when he saw his beloved grandson like this.

"Hello grandfather's most beautiful granddaughter."

There's no answer.

"Well, very well sleep. Grandpa knows lately you have been sleep deprived so use this opportunity to sleep long, right? Don't worry for long, grandpa is worried about Alexa. Does Alexa know? Before coming here, Grandpa had a dream of you going with your father and mother. You put on white clothes and keep walking towards the very bright light. Grandpa called you but you didn't hear it. Keep waking up and ask your situation to Allard turns out you are sleeping long gini. It's okay, grandfather knows you're tired but quickly wake up, grandfather's favorite grandson? Grandpa will grant your wish if you wake up. Yaudah grandpa came out first yes, change with the others. Others are worried about you too. Get up quickly, baby," said the grandfather while kissing Alexa's forehead.

Grandpa came out of the ICU room and took turns with Alvaro.

Alvaro who saw the condition of his sister became very sad. His sister who is always cheerful and beautiful is now just silent.

"Hello, my most beautiful sister. Long sleep again, huh? Begadang mulu really sleepy and so sleep long gini right. Strange when you just a day sleep but has been said to sleep long with the doctor. Tomorrow you will wake up, right? You are always worried about your patients so it is impossible to sleep long. Though just yesterday brother was worried because you lost eh now you have made brother worried again. You're so happy to make my sister worry anyway."

Alvaro could not hold back his tears.

"Wake up dong Al, I'm worried about you. Big brother is not used to seeing you quiet like this. You know ga? Grandpa hit Merry but I got it. Let's wake up and continue to anger grandpa, you're very dear to Merry. Oh, you know what? When we all panicked again Jessica could still think of the culprit and finally we all got a clue because of him. It turns out that he is smart huh hahaha, I think he can only baffle and byebelin doang but not unexpectedly he can give enlightenment to all of us. Brother will make sure that the culprit gets caught. That's why you woke up so quickly? Let me see who dares hurt you like this. Brother yaudah out, huh? Can't be long because you can't see you like gini. Quickly wake up my little sister," said Alvaro while kissing Alexa's forehead as well.

Alvaro exits the ICU room and turns with Jessica.

Jessica felt alien to this atmosphere, where her best friend was just silent. Usually every time they meet Alexa always tells a lot of things. But their meeting is different now. This time Jessica was talking more.

"Alexa, you know when I heard this news my heart seemed to stop for a moment. Why don't you tell me that you like drinking tea with other people lately? Do you remember that Mr Alvaro forbade drinking and eating from strangers? If you really want to have tea with someone, why not take me? Even though I'm busy, I must be willing to do what you want. Get up soon, huh? We all worry about you. We are all not used to this silence. Your doctor said you had a long sleep, but I believe that soon you will wake up. I'll always wait for you here okay?"

Jessica exited the ICU room and took turns with the last person, Allard. Merry, Dion, and Risa are not allowed in by Grandpa and Allard.

Allard hesitantly opened the door of the ICU room and entered slowly. She was afraid to see her girl lying weakly with all the medical devices attached to her body. Allard approached Alexa slowly. He clasped Alexa's hand that wasn't drip-mounted.

"Hello darling. How do you want to sleep gini not say hmm? You must be very angry yes just as I became a long sleep suddenly like gini. I'm sorry, huh? I promise you when you wake up will tell me all about my past and will answer all your questions. Now wake up huh? Open your eyes. I haven't seen you in a day, but I'm so lost. I miss being spoiled with you. I'm..." Allard stopped his words, he could not help but cry. "I'm so weak, right? Look at you like this already makes me cry."

There's no answer.

"Honey, let's get up" he whined.

It is unexpected that Alexa gives a response to Allard's words. Tears coming down from Alexa's side of the eye. Allard who saw that immediately called the doctor. The doctor arrived and checked Alexa.

"Good news. The health of patients has improved a little. You successfully stimulate the patient to survive. Patients who feel aroused certainly give a response to someone who invites him to talk. Keep talking to her, sir," said the doctor.

Everyone was so grateful to hear that, especially Allard, he was happy to get a response from Alexa. Allard will continue to speak to Alexa even though Alexa cannot answer his words now.

***POV ALEXA***

When I opened my eyes, there was only a white room I could see.

"Where is this?" my many.

"What are you doing here, Alexa?" asked someone.

I looked at them with a confused look. "Mother's father? How come you guys are here? Wait what actually happened. I felt sleepy after drinking tea. Oh this must be a dream?"

"No,p Alexa. This is not dreamland. The tea you drink gets you here" replied the father.

"Tea? It's just plain tea," I said.

"So Risa tried to kill me?!" many surprised.

"No, the boy's good. He was only taken advantage of by someone who was after you" replied the father.

"Dad, someone who's after me must have been your enemy in the past, right? This must be related to that, right?" my many.

Dad just shut up.

"Dad, answer me!" my insistence.

"Alexa, calm down, son," said mother to calm me down.

"really. Someone is an enemy of our family" replied the forced father.

My feet feel weak. Why would it have to be that again?

"Swimming, kid. You have Allard now. He'll take care of you" said Dad.

"What does that mean?! Of course he can't take care of me from your enemies. Allard's just a businessman not a mafia member like you!" my snapping.

"Allard hasn't told you about yourself, has he? Then you should get up and ask me all the things you want to know" said the father.

"Free. He won't answer. The last time I asked, we had a fight" I said slowly.

"This time is different. Allard promised to answer all your questions" replied the father.

I scrunched my forehead. "How did you know that?"

"Even though we're gone, we're always watching you and Alvaro from up here. Come here, kid, look at that. Your husband is crying because of you." I looked in the direction you pointed.

There Allard cried while holding my hand. Unconsciously, my tears just shed. Allard suddenly shouted to the doctor. And the doctor checked me.

"look, right? Allard loves you very much, so get up and ask him all, quickly" said the mother.

I'm nodding.

Slowly my body began to disappear.

Before I actually disappeared, Dad said something. "Remove yourself from the past, walk through the present boldly and powerfully. Everyone will protect you, Alexa."

Then my body completely disappeared.

I also opened my eyes slowly. Adjust the incoming light.

This room is quiet. There's no one here. I was in the ICU so there was no one in my room.

Suddenly the doctor came. The doctor checked my situation. "Miracle. You've been really conscious ever since your husband kept talking to you."

I wanted to talk but my voice didn't come out.

"You must be in trouble because of this thing." The doctor removed my breathing apparatus.

I spoke without making a sound. "Where is everyone?"

The doctor who understood my words replied, "They are all praying in the prayer room. I think it's over soon too."

"Waiting they are done. We'll move you to the hospital room" the doctor said.

I'm nodding.

I was transferred to a VIP room.

***POV ALLARD***

After praying, we all went back to the ICU room to take turns talking to Alexa again. But when we arrived, the nurse was taking out an empty bed.

"Excuse me, why is the bed out? My sister's inside, right?" ask Alvaro.

The nurse replied, "I don't know, sir. I was just ordered to carry this and inside there was no one."

Degs...I clasped the nurse's hand. "What does it mean that no one is inside?! Obviously my wife is in the ICU room!"

Dion tried to arrest me. "Silence, sir. We'll ask the receptionist, maybe the lady's been moved to another room."

Before we left, the doctor who handled Alexa came. "You're all done praying apparently. I want to tell you something."

"Where's Alexa?" ask Jessica.

"Miss Alexa we moved to the orchid nursery. The miracle came, he was aware of his coma while you were in the prayer room" he replied.

We all ran straight to the orchid nursery.
