I wish it could be so that God would grant my plea

Where I could die instead of you

The place, I don't find you

I believe doesn't exist

Even God takes away from us

The one who's more dear to us than life

You are leaving me alone

Your memories will make me dance every day

May in the next life you are born as me and I am as you...

Numb

Numb

Numb......

That's the only thing Amy could feel at the moment. Slumped against the waiting room chair of the hospital with an emotionless face. She couldn't move or speak anything, the flashbacks of what happened hours ago running before her eyes, Daniel's bleeding body, his loving smile and last words. How he called her his best friend and a wonderful wife despite the damage she had done to him.

Her eyes blotched red, her lip busted and her head still swollen from the impacts she received earlier but despite the crippling pain, she didn't let anyone treat her wounds. Nothing could be compared to the pain of earth-shattering calamity that fell on her. She began to feel that she was the snake in his life, her love was poisonous to such an extent that it sucked the life out of him.

Silas seated next to her mirroring the same expressions the only difference was his tears were still streaming and falling on his shirt that was drizzled with blood drops of his best friend and brother.

Nadia sniffed sitting opposite to them making no effort to console any one of them. She knew it wouldn't help because it wasn't what they all needed at the moment.

The only thing that mattered to them was the well being of Daniel who was in operation theatre for the last four hours struggling between life and death. Fighting off the angels of death as doctors performed their duty trying to save his life but not many chances were there except a miracle.

Vahide also rushed to the hospital as soon as she learnt about the incident, crying and sobbing but Amy, with whatever senses she had left in her, asked her to be with Ozan. Knowing their little boy will get scared not seeing either of his parents face the first thing in the morning.

Despite everything she has to remind herself that she had a son who was dependent on her but she couldn't make herself go back home. Not in this state and how will she tell him about his father when he would ask about him. Seeing how close he was to Daniel, it wouldn't be long for him to start getting grumpy and emotional. How would she say to him that because of her his father was on the brink of death?

Emir entered the waiting room, gazing at the three gloomy and depressed faces. His own wasn't far from these expressions but he at least needed to act strong in this tough moment. He exhaled, brushing the dust off his uniform. After Daniel was shot he managed to tackle Gonsalez and arrest him, sending him to the prison in heavy security. As for that deceptive Kevin, he was shot dead during the encounter.

"How long has the operation been going?" He asked solemnly.

"Four hours and still nothing!" Silas answered in a crooked tone, wiping his tears. A pang of pain hit him that he might lose his brother soon, not being able to deal with his emotions he rushed past Emir outside the room. Nadia shook her head but still followed after him leaving the two of them alone in the gloomy atmosphere.

Emir looked at Amy who looked almost dead in her rigid posture, only the blinking of her eyes was a sign that she was alive. He swallowed the lump in his throat recalling the time he lost Ayla, the misery, the pain and the anguish he was all too familiar with.

He knew exactly how it felt losing the person you loved the most in just a mere time. Their existence fades away in front of your eyes but still, you can't do anything about it, that's how helpless you are in front of death.

He took a seat beside her, placing a hand on her shoulder in a soothing manner. All the anger and fuss they had vanished in the air respecting the sensitivity of time.

"He will survive Amy, Daniel is a tough man!" He said softly in a confident manner.

It was at that time she felt the numbing sensation faltering in her body as she felt a soothing hand on her shoulder. The tears that once seized started to flow again as she broke down crying in agony for the first time since they came to the hospital.

"Amy, don't cry like that. You need to be strong for Daniel, for Ozan right?" Emir pleaded, holding her in his arms. The anguished sobs leaving her body rattled him.

"How can I Emir, when he is lying there cold on the verge of death. And you know I am the reason behind his state, I am the reason, the person who he loved the most!" She cried out, a few nurses stopped by to look inside because of the noise but each of them stepped back with a pitiful look.

"Don't blame yourself, Amy, it was written in destiny. We couldn't fight it!" 

Her body trembled as continued to weep for minutes, Emir holding her close, soothing her back.

"Why did you help me!" Amy croaked between her crying.

Emir let out a small sad smile gazing at her.

"There were a lot of reasons Amy, a lot of things. I will explain it later but for now, Amy, even though the confrontation and issues we had with each other, you are still my sister and I am still your brother. "

Amy's shattered heart plummeted a bit listening to that, it was true. He had always been a brother figure in her life.

"I wasn't acting rationally at that time, you know…..Ayla's death crushed me as it did you!" A tear fell from his eye but he was quick to wipe it. Ayla was still a sensitive matter to his heart, how can you forget your first and only love so easily.

"I am sorry, I am sorry Emir. I have been unjust to many relations around me, the tragedies really got me!" She mumbled with a teary gaze.

"I am sorry too, let's just leave bitter things behind. We don't need them now besides Ayla will haunt us if we continue to fight around. You know the peacekeeper she was!" Emir muttered with a sad smile.

She didn't reply instead hugged him back, both in agony of not being able to have their loved ones beside them. Their hearts were crushed under the weight of losing their beloved, the only difference was one had already stitched his wounds while hers were raw and too fragile to be sewed.

Suddenly, Silas came running towards them,

"The doctor wants to see us, the operation has been done!" He informed panting hard and without wasting a second Amy dashed outside Emir and Silas following.

"How is he?" Amy breathed reaching outside the operation theatre trying to get a peek inside but the doors were closed.

Silas stood by Nadia on the left, Emir a little behind Amy.

The Doctor removed his mask and gave them a sad smile, one he had to give to build some fleeting hope.

"The situation is not good Mrs Saritas, the gunshots were deadly. One pierced his shoulder fracturing his clavicle but the one which pierced his chest was serious. It nearly escaped his heart, damaging a fragment of his lungs. It's a miracle he is still not dead!" He announced.

They didn't know whether to take a sigh of relief that he was alive or get worried about the new situation.

"W-what is his condition now?" Amy stuttered, clenching her fists. The remaining three held their breath in anxiousness.

"I can't say anything now, his heart stopped pumping for a minute. We had to work hard to stabilize his heart,"

"Will he survive?" Silas asked, dread evident in his voice.  Nadia placed a comforting hand behind his back.

"We have performed a few tests on him but….." The doctor glanced between them all, ready to deliver dreadful news.

"Mr Saritas is in a coma as of now!" Amy's swollen lips parted as a gasp escaped from them. Her head involuntarily shook, not believing it.

"As of now, what does that mean?" Nadia piped in equally worried.

"Only time will tell whether his body will survive this trauma or succumb to it!" The doctor said, 

Amy stumbled back on a nearby chair, burying her hands into her hair. No amount of words could describe how much everything was hurting to hear.

"You guys pray, we are trying to do our best!" The doctor said with a small smile before leaving the scene.
