Chapter 22: Chapter 22

"It's going to be the fine man they'd be alright," Axel said rubbing his back and leaving everyone shocked.

"How--how?" Zhavia asked shocked as to how he got to know.

"I was amongst the crowd that saw them, but when Sean hurried out from the crowd I knew he was coming to tell you guys so I decided to wait for a while before coming." He explained.

"I need to make a phone call," Myra stated excusing herself as she called Jay.

“...Myra, it's 1 am in the morning what is it." Jay groaned in a husky voice.

"Jay..." Myra sobbed alarming him waking up his wife in the process. He put the phone on the loudspeaker.

" What's wrong baby?" He questioned.

"Narcia and Anya are in the hospital, they went out on a walk and we're attacked. They're both in critical conditions.” She added as Courtney broke into tears.

“Baby, try to calm down. We'd be in North Carolina early in the day. Take care and provide us with any update.” Jay said hunting up as he consoled his sobbing wife.

“They would be fine love, let's try to get some sleep.” He added hugging her tight.

Anya opened her eyes and tried to adjust them to the bright lights. She tried moving her body but everywhere hurt as she groaned in pain drawing the attention of her sister who had bowed her head.

" Baby, you're awake.” She added letting a sigh of relief.

“What happened? Where is Narcia?” She asked panicking.

The doctor entered her ward and injected some medicine into her making her drift into bedtime.

“She needs more rest, she doesn't need the stress.” The doctor advice as Courtney went out to join her husband who was talking to a police officer.

“You guys need rest, food and a shower,” Jay said walking towards Myra and the guys.

“We're fine Jay, how are they by the way?" Zaid asked.

“Well, Anya woke up a few minutes ago and had an attack so she had to be sedated. Her progress is being monitored. And Narcia hasn't woken up since she came out of surgery.” Jay added with a sad smile.

“She would pull through this, she's a fighter.” Said assured him as they decided to head to their apartment for a change of clothes.

***********

Anya and Narcia's conditions we're getting much better as the weeks passed by. Jay and Courtney checked in on them a few times due to their work schedule but called them every day to see how they were fairing.

A nurse has wheeled Anya to Narcia's room to where the rest of their friends were laughing and talking.

“Hey, love,” Zaid added pecking the top of her head as she smiled.

A couple of minutes Reign entered the room. Zaid had informed him since the incident happened but he didn't know how to show up at the hospital after everything he'd done.

“Hi--i.” He awkwardly greeted. “Wow, look who decided to show up.” Zhav spat as Myra glared at her.

Narcia asked a question that shocked everyone. “Hey handsome, who are you by the way?” She questioned with a blank look.

“You don't remember him?” Myra asked.

“Is he someone I should remember, cause I don't.” She started as Sean walked in with a doctor.

“Miss Daniels, do you remember all these people?” The man asked.

“Yes, I do, except that young hot guy.” She pointed at Reign just as Axel entered.

“What of him?” The doctor pointed to Axel. “Yeah I do, he's my friend.” She smiled at him.

“I'm afraid she's lost some part of her memory, to be precise memories she shared with this young man. I think she buried those memories before the accident that is why she can't remember them.” The doctor added.

“Would she be able to recover them?” Reign asked.

“Only if you spend time with her.” The doctor excused himself as Reign sat beside her and said.

“Hi, I'm Reign and can we start all over ?” He asked.

“Hi, Reign, nice to meet you. I'm Narcia.” She smiled leaving everyone perplexed.
