Chapter 39
Liam's POV
I was so busy the whole day, but thankfully I was able to finish around 3 pm. I had time to go to the groceries and prepare for tonight's dinner with Bella. Collette helped me decorate the lake and laid the cloth by the grass under the big tree.
I will ask her to marry me tonight. I told my parents and Aunt Agnes, and they were very thrilled about my plan. Bella said she has something to tell me. Well, whatever it is, I will still marry her. I have waited for this moment forever, and now that it's here, I'm never letting her go.
It's 4:30. I'm sure Bella is done with school and is getting ready to come home. I decided to give her a call to ask how her day was and Sophie's. I dialed her number, and it feels so good to hear her voice. We chatted happily until I hear the panic in her voice.
" Oh, Shit!" I heard her say.
" Bella, what is it?! What's going on?! I asked her, trying not to sound scared.
" The brakes won't work, Liam! We are running too fast! Oh, God! Oh, God!" She told me. Now, I can't keep still. My heart is filled with fear, and I panicked.
" Bella! Baby, please tell me what's going on! Try to slow down, babe. Try to look for a safe way to make the car slow down!" I instructed her despite the growing fear in my heart. My hands grow cold, and I am shouting now. My parents, Collette and Todd, came running outside to see what's going on.
" I can't, Liam! Oh, my God! Liam! I love you! I'm sorry!"That was the last thing I heard from her before a loud crashing sound echoed through my phone and their screams. I didn't know I was screaming until my parents calmed me down and asked what happened.
" Liam, what is going on?!" My mom is crying now, and Collette too. I looked at them with a fear-stricken face and tears flowing from my eyes.
" Mom, Bella, and Sophie. They got into an accident! The brakes won't work, and the car was running too fast. We got to go to them! We got to find them! Oh, God! I can't lose them both! I can't!" I cried in my mother's arms like a baby. I am so scared to know what might have happened to them.
I heard my dad on the phone calling for the police and ambulance. Collette is on the phone with Aunt Agnes. I was sprawled to the ground balling my eyes out. Todd and dad helped me up and guided me to the car.
Aunt Agnes came running in tears towards us, and we all went to the crash site. When we arrived, there are so many police cars, and people gathered. The police informed us that they were brought to the hospital a few minutes ago. He said they are both in bad shape and looked critical.
I kneeled to the ground and cried again. I heard Aunt Agnes' scream and cries. Dad hauled me up, and we all went to the hospital. I felt so numb and trembling uncontrollably. When we arrived at the hospital, we went straight to the receptionist and asked about the two new patients.
She told us to go to the ER, and I ran as fast as my feet would allow. I wanted to go in, but they won't allow me. I screamed for Bella and Sophie, hoping they would hear me. Todd and dad talked to the Doctor while mom and Collette dragged me away from the door and placed me on a chair.
I bowed my head and prayed so hard to please keep them safe. Please, God! let them be okay! Aunt Agnes is still crying beside me, and I held her hand. Then the doctor came out to talk to us. I stood up and waited for him.
" The two patients are not looking good. The little girl had too many cuts from the glass, and we need to operate on her ASAP. The problem is, we need a blood donor for her. Her blood type is rare, and we don't have an emergency pack here." The doctor informed us. I cursed and asked him.
" What is her blood type? I'll call all my friends and other hospitals." I asked him, terrified.
" AB negative," The doctor said. I was dumbfounded. What are the odds? I am AB negative.
" I am AB negative! Take my blood! Take as much as you can!" I told him.
" Excellent! Let me pass you to my nurse. She will do the tests if you're an eligible donor. It will take only a few minutes. We have to hurry. As for the mother, she is in the operating room right now. She took quite a blow in the head and sustained fractures and cuts all over her body. The surgeons are doing their best to save her, but I would have to say, to ready yourselves." He added in a sad and sorry voice.
" No! That's not true! She will pull through this!" Collette screamed and cried. Aunt Agnes was crying so hard as well and was holding on to my crying mother.
" Doctor, please save them. Please!" I begged him, almost kneeling. I didn't even realize the nurse took a sample of blood. I am feeling numb because of the pain I am feeling in my heart.
" We will try our best, Doctor Jones. That's all I can promise." A few minutes later, the nurse came back with the result and gave it to the Doctor.
" Thank God! You have healthy blood cells, doctor. It's a good thing you matched your daughter's blood." He announced, and I was confused at what he said. I heard gasps around me, but I did not mind it.
" She's not my daughter, doctor. She's my girlfriend's daughter, the one in the operating room right now." I corrected him, although I would gladly adopt Sophie as my own child.
" Oh, well, that's not what the results say, doctor Jones. Aside from checking your blood for diseases or abnormalities, we also checked your DNA, and it says you're 99.9% the father of the child." He told me, and I felt lightheaded. I grabbed the wall and suddenly want to puke.
" Doctor, we have to hurry! We need blood for the little girl. We are losing time by the minute." The nurse announced.
" Liam, go, son, save your daughter! We will explain everything when you come back. Please hurry! Sophie needs you, son!" My mom said, and I looked at all of them. They all seem to know, but nobody told me. How did it happen? I nodded numbly and went with the doctor and the nurse.
Now that I know that Sophie is really my daughter, the fear I felt doubled. I have the two most important people in my life inside that operating room, fighting for their lives. How can I survive this? How can I function without them?
