☆☆Mia POV☆☆
The moment I saw the caller’s name “Granny” pop up on the screen, I lost every bit of composure that was left in me. My body shivered uncontrollably and I panicked.
“Did she find out about the horseshoe? What the hell am I going to say to her? What if she asks me to give it back? How will I tell her that I lost it?” I thought about all this while staring at the phone before saying: “I wish you were here Kevin” I sighed and picked up the call within the last ring thinking whatever happens.
“Hello” I greeted her but my voice came out hoarse.
“Mia, sweetie. How are you doing?” her concerned voice triggered guilt within my conscience. My dried eyes started to tear up again. I sobbed loudly, my emotions were all over. I don’t really know the reason why I was crying hysterically lik

Ch.19 COMA ☆☆Mia POV☆☆ As soon as we heard the nurse’s words, we all came out, running of the waiting room and headed to the ICU where Kevin was kept. The doctor was already there; he was holding some files and charts while talking to one of the nurses assigned to the care. “Make sure to check his vitals hourly and report back to me” the doctor ordered the nurse as she nodded her head and then he turned his head to us. “Mr Jackson, Kevin’s vital readings are not good. His blood pressure and heart rate keep going up and down vigorously. We are trying our best to stabilize the situation. For the moment he is okay, I will allow you all to go in and see him but please be quick and don’t talk much” Kevin’s mother smiled saying: “I will go in first” the doctor nodded his head and opened the ICU door for her. 5 minutes later, she came out and she looked white pale like she had seen a gh
☆☆Kevin POV☆☆ I kept on losing and gaining consciousness inside my head numerous times, before; I started to feel awake for longer periods of time. I couldn’t move my body or see anything. I could only hear voices around me. First, the voices were lost and vague and then I tried to focus harder and started to recognise a door opening, nurses talking, and different footsteps around me. That was frustrating really, I needed to wake up. I was good and conscious now. I didn’t black out for quite some time. I tried to concentrate to wake myself up or even move any part of my body, but I couldn’t. I felt like I weighed 100 pounds, my body refused to obey and sank into the darkness more. I surrendered to the situation and calmed down again. I started to think about everything, it was all I can do for now. How long have I been in this mind state? What happened to Mia after I was hit? Did she find
☆☆Mia POV☆☆“What the hell is your problem?” I screamed at him. He turned to face me and I can say that he was shocked that I came to confront him. But, I just couldn’t take it especially when I didn't do anything to offend him, I didn’t even know him.“Excuse me, are you talking to me?” he replied coldly while pointing a finger to himself, like I was some kind of freak. His attitude agitated me more, I raised my voice replying: “Do you see any idiot here other than yourself?”His eyes widened and he opened his mouth to talk, but I cut him off saying: “Don’t bother to say anything. I just came after you to tell you that Kevin’s parents know nothing about the horseshoe and that you shouldn’t mention it to them
☆☆Kevin POV☆☆I opened my eyes and saw Mia opening the door and stepping in. She was surprised beyond belief, like she saw a ghost, as if I was brought back from the dead. She dropped the cup from her hand and came running into my arms saying: “Kevin, you are awake”She crushed me into a bear hug. I lost my senses for a moment and wrapped my hands around her tiny waist. Then, I heard her chuckle. I looked at her puzzled and confused. She looked up to me and I saw tears sparkling down her cheeks.“Why was she crying?” I asked myself, and then she freed herself from my arms. She was blushing red. Why did she hug me? We never had this kind of friendship.“I have to call your parents now,” she said and took out her phone and made a call a few feets away from me
☆☆Kevin POV☆☆When Mia opened the door to leave, I saw two uniform policemen standing at the door; they came in followed by a third man in a suit. One of them approached me saying: “Kevin Jackson, we are here to investigate the car the accident that you were involved in”Mia’s face turned horrified when the man in the suit came in and she just looked down and moved outside the room. “Is she scared?” I thought to myself as my eyes followed her leaving the room.The man in the suit came forward, sat in front of me on the chair, while the two policemen closed the door and stood guard from the inside. I looked at them puzzled and didn’t utter a word until the man in suit cleared his throat and said: “I am detective Markson, I will be conducting the investigation and I will ask you a few questions and
☆☆Mia POV☆☆I stood there staring at his face for more than 15 minutes. Till, my legs got numb so, I sighed and sat down on the chair next to his bed again.I felt like I was memorizing his face as if I wouldn’t see him again. I shook the idea out of my head and enjoyed the view.Minutes later, he stirred in his sleep. Then suddenly, he opened his eyes widely, pulling me out of my thoughts. I cleared my throat saying: “good morning” he turned his head to me and replied back: “good morning”He stared at me for a few seconds, then turned his head around and asked: “where are mom and dad?”I took a breath in and stood up to get him his medicine saying: “they went home to change. They will be back
☆☆Mia POV☆☆“Where is the horseshoe Mia?”My brain froze and I felt a lump in my throat. I stared at her with my eyes wide open and not blinking.I took a breath in as my voice came all shaky: “wh … whaaat horssseshoooe?” I stammered.She looked at me intently and for the first time I saw my granny getting angry at me: “Don’t you dare lie to me young lady?”My eyes welled up as I straightened my back, I put the cup on the table and I looked down at my hands saying: “I will tell you everything now granny”She came closer to me and ran her fingers through my hair saying with her warm soft voice: “I will help you dear, just tell me w
☆☆Mia POV☆☆A week now,Granny has kept me prisoner in her house training with no connection with the outside world. I have been training physically and mentally at the same time. She wanted me to be ready to fight any time, saying that you never know when the enemy might strike.She woke me up at 6 every day and trained me for martial arts, archery, swords, shooting, and running. Saying that I had to run every day to raise my stamina and stay fit.And since I never trained for anything in my life before, I felt like living through hell now. My body ached all the time, every muscle in my body was sore and there were scratches and bruises all over me that I know nothing about.While, in the evening, she insisted that I meditate to gain control over
