Love Me As I Am novel Chapter 47

Laura POV

Luke paced down the room while Sandra was trying to calm him down. So far, he had been more frustrated than any of us. The doctors were yet to give us some feedback and we had been in the hospital since yesterday night till the next morning.

"What's taking him so long," Luke yelled, the nurses around glared at him.

Apparently, we were in their family doctor's hospital.

"Luke you need to calm down," Sandra said trying to talk some sense into the raging Luke.

"I'm gonna kill that guy," Luke said with his fist clinched.

"Hey, look at me," Sandra said as she nudged him.

"I understand that you are worried. We are all worried, the best thing for us to do is to stay calm and we'll get through this," she stated and Luke sighed.

"How can I stay calm when my sister is badly hurt and in a freaking ward, huh? Tell me!" he demanded. It made Sandra flinch and shake bow her head with fear.

"I'm so sorry," he muttered after realizing what he did. "It's okay. I understand, we are all so tensed up," she stated and he sighed.

He pulled her closer to him, into a hug, wrapped his hands on her back and buried his face into her hair and muttered "I am really scared."

She wrapped her hands around him too and breathed out, "We all are."

Even in the worst moments, those two can't seize to amaze me. It's so romantic, how both of them feel safe around each other not minding that they being watched.

The doctor walked slowly to us and we all sprang up on our feets, looking terrified.

"How is she? Can we see her now?" Anne asked.

"I'm sorry, you can't see her now but she's awake," he stated and we all sighed in relief.

"Mr Howard I would like to speak to you in my office" he said.

"What about us, we deserve to hear what you are going to say," Luke almost yelled.

"Luke, I need to speak to your father in private about some other issues. I'll tell you all if any other thing comes up."

"Okay but can we see her now?" I asked and he sighed, "Not really, like I said I'll inform you when the time comes but for now just relax," he said and I nodded. He smiled at me and he walked away with Mr Howard.

"You know that I don't like this, mom is coming today and Kat is still in the hospital. Why are two bad things happening the same day," Anne sighed as she shrank into her seat.

"How is your mom's arrival bad?" I asked feeling confused.

"It's bad in every way" she stated and she turned to me, "She's so you know, I can even find a word for her. I prefer my dad than her," she blurted.

"She's coming today and there's gonna be chaos. I just want to be free from her for a life time," she said.

"At least you have a mother," I said and she sighed.
