‘317 She Is My Life 317 She Is My Life
Wayne heard the nurse repeat her questions, but he couldn't even move his legs. He froze for a long time before returning to his senses and saying, "Ido! I'm her family!"
The nurse appeared emotionless because she was so used to seeing this scene. She handed him a piece of paper and said, "We need to operate on the right side of her chest because it's penetrated by a steel bar. She's in danger, and doctors are still trying their best to save her. Please sign here."’
Hearing that, Wayne went stiff. He felt like a bomb had exploded in his head, rendering him unable to think clearly.
"Sir, are you all right? " the nurse asked.
Wayne couldn't control his shaking hands as he took the pen and signed the paper. People were talking and walking around him, but he didn't seem to hear anything. He peered through the c***k in the operating room door, trying to see what was going on inside.
After about ten minutes, three people approached him anxiously. They were Andrew, Scott, and Randal.
In a panic, Scott asked, "How is Anna?"
Wayne pursed his lips, and trembled all over. He tried to calm himself down before repeating what the doctor had just said.
Seeing his reaction, Scott's eyes instantly turned red, and he grabbed Wayne's collar and asked, "Is this how you look after her? Why did this happen?"
Randal yanked on Scott's shirt and exclaimed, "Please relax, dear. ‘317 She Is My Life Things may not be as bad as you think. They've already started saving her’
Ignoring Randal, Scott grabbed Wayne's collar more tightly and said, "Wayne! You promised me you would do everything you could to protect her! How could you let this happen to my sister?"
Wayne looked up at Scott at that moment, tears welling up in his eyes. In fact, if Scott hadn't questioned him, he would have remained depressed and silent.
"Yes, she is your sister," he said, "but she is more important to me than my life.”
Everyone froze. Randal then said, "Come on, honey, stop it. They're still in the operating room.”
After about 30 minutes, the lights went out in the operating room. When the doctors saw the people at the door, they bowed and apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, we did our best but she didn't make it."
Scott felt weak in his legs right away and would have flopped on the floor if Randal hadn't grabbed him by the waist.
The stretcher cart was then pushed out. Scott knelt next to it, clutching the white cloth tightly, and began to cry. Andrew's eyes were moist, and Randal was trembling.
Wayne was frozen, unsure what to do. He felt he wasn't even as brave as Scott because he was too afraid to walk over to the stretcher.
God... Why?! No... | must be dreaming. Anna, after wake up from my dream, you will be sitting next to me and smiling at me, right? Right?!
At the thought of that, Wayne pinched his arm hard to see whether he was dreaming or not. To his disappointment, the intense pain he felt showed that he wasn't dreaming at all. ‘317 She Is My Life Damn it! I’m so so sorry, Anna. I'm so sorry that I disappointed you by almost endangering Matthew again. I'm so sorry that | didn't trust you more. | should've told you more often that love you and that I do care about you. But it’s already too late. f**k! What am Igonna do without you?
I can’t live without yor
"Ah, what brings you all here?" A familiar female voice pulled Wayne back to reality.
Hearing that, all of them turned around and saw Mona coming down the hallway with two plastic bags containing lunch boxes.
"What's going on?" she asked, surprised, of the five grieving men.
Andrew whispered, "Stop asking; she's dead.”
