Antonio's POV:
After what had happened, I quickly had called an ambulance, and had taken her to the hospital. I was worried all the time, because this guilt will stay forever in my heart, I let my roommate faint and I left her alone, doesn't depend if she's my enemy, but she is a human. The ambulance ride was all about me trying to wake her up, but she didn't even move a bit. We had reached the hospital, and they had taken Ashley in the emergency lane, I was told to stay outside, I did..but what if something bad happens...I will be the one blamed....

It had been only an hour but it felt like an eternity. As I was waiting outside the room, my legs bouncing, my fingers fidgeting with each other. The nurse came...I thought she was going to tell me about Ashley's condition, but all she told me was to fill up a form. I took that form from the nurse, and thanked her.
I was filling the form peacefully but then I saw a corner left, in the side
Relationship with the patient: __________
What should I even write here..?
Maybe if I am acting as her boyfriend, I should write boyfriend..? As boyfriend can also mean boy friend..right?!
I wrote a small Friend there and then submitted the form at the counter.
It had been an hour now, and finally Dr. Reynolds had come outside, his face serious no sign of emotions...how can he do that?
"Mr. Bonnin, I'll like to see you in my room."
His voice came out deeper than I thought.
"Oh sure.."
My heartbeat just dropped...why is he saying it like that...oh god please!!!
I followed him into his room, it was a confined space, but it was neat, the walls so white that it irritated me..
"Is everything alright, po?"
He looked up at me, "Your friend has shown extreme signs of distress, are you guys even taking care of her or talking to her?"
Stress...and her? No! She looks perfectly fine how can she be in stress this isn't possible.
"But Doctor, she didn't tell me or she didn't show any signs.."
Dr. Reynolds looked at me his eyes screamed disappointment,
"You should have known, what kind of friend are you, but now it has happened. I want to discuss about her health"
I tried to focus on his words.
"Mr. Bonnin, she looks fragile, I'll take her blood test tomorrow, and I need you to bring her to the hospital twice a month, I need to check her weight tomorrow too."
Well that's true she does looks fragile tho.
"Okay, po I'll try my best to bring her to you! Can I see her now?"
"Yes, you can but make sure not to stress her, maybe she is awake now"
It'll be great if she's awake!
"Thank you po, once again"
And with that I left his room, and straight went to see Ashley, Dr. Reynolds told me, that her room has shifted so now I can see her. I went to the room he told me to, and opened the door.
And when I did I saw Ashley...poor Ashley...
She was looking up at the celling, looking small in the hospital gown, I didn't like her looking ill:(
"Umm hi, are you feeling better "
I tried to sound casual but obviously I scared her with this sudden deep voice of mine.
She looked at me and then back again at the celling, "Better, thanks for bringing me here. I know I own you"
I walked over to the stool near her bed and sat on it, "it's okay, it was my duty to save my roommate, or I would be on the news"
She let ouyr a weak laugh, she laughed!
"All you care about is being on the news, huh?"
"My pleasure, my lady"
Oppsss, I called her my lady, it's okay it's a joke!!
___________________♡__________________
It had been hours since we talked, she was now sleeping well, I was going to sleep on the couch but before I went to the couch, she accidentally gave my thumb a squeeze....was it intentional? I know she likes me;)
I suddenly realized that I looked like a creepy man, and pushed those thoughts away. But literally for the first time I saw Ashley try to control her tears when I talked about failure. I was randomly talking about how I failed a big test, but her eyes were slowly red at the mention of failure...does she think that she's a failure...? Maybe because of that she has stress, because somewhat I know this is not her dream college.
While laying down I was looking at her, she looked almost peaceful while sleeping, not the person who would have hit me.
But that still doesn't stop me from thinking how she rejected me
"There are a lot more better than you, Antonio"
I can take care of her but that hate stays.
