*Samantha’s Point of View*
---
"Where do you think you are---" Dad was about to ask but stopped when he got the sight of the woman before him.
"Samara?" He asked in disbelief, and I guess he just can't believe his eyes.
He just arrived from somewhere I don't care, and I don't want him getting in my way. I will go to the hospital.
"Hi, Dad! It's been a long time." She greeted him, and he wanted to get near her, but she stepped back. And Sam remembered that we're going to the hospital.
"I... What… uh." He can't compose a word, and we're about to head to the door.
"I'm taking Sam with me. We'll go to the hospital." She said sternly, and we walked past him.
"What? No, you're not taking Samantha away from me. Stay here, Sam." He belted and blocked our way.
"But, Dad! Claire got into an accident, and I don't know what happened to her. Please, I want to see her." I begged him, and he is also shocked by the information.
"Please, Dad. Don't be selfish this time with Sam. How long do you want her to suffer? They are in love and accept it. She's happy with Claire and just happy with that, too. We're still going." Sam let out, and he seemed to be in deep thoughts.
"Be home before six. You're still grounded, Samantha." He spoke, and I felt relieved. I will still really go even if he disapproves.
I went to him and hugged him tightly. That made him surprised by my reaction.
"Thanks, Dad," I told him, and we went to the garage, and I let Sam drive my car.

"Where is Claire Lawrence?" I asked at the information desk, and the nurse told us that she's in the emergency room.
She also asked if I am her family, and I told her that I'm her girlfriend. And they want me to open Red's phone and call her family.
I have called them, and her mom and Shane are heading here.
"Sam! How is she?" Eden hurried to me and hugged me.
"I still don't know. No one has come out yet. I don't know what happened." I told her, and she's starting to cry now.
"It's all my fault. I will never forgive myself if something bad happens to her." She muttered while sobbing. I know that it's so hard for her as a mother to know her only child is hurt.
"Sam! Where's Claire?" Shane came running and asked as soon as she got the sight of us.
She hugged me tightly, and I just can't help but cry again.
"She's still there, Shane," I told her, and she went to the door and peeked inside.

Minutes passed, and still, no one came out from the ER.
"I hope she's fine, Auntie. I just... F*ck! Why didn't she go to me last night instead? Damn it!" Shane uttered and cursed as she kept walking back and forth.
We're sitting in the waiting area outside, and I can't help but feel so freaking worried about her.
Eden told us that Red ran out of their house as she got the sight of her father last night. I think that's why she went drinking.
Then a doctor came out and asked where Red's family was. And they conducted a blood matching so that they could proceed to the surgery. They need blood, and they are out of supply for her type. F*ck this hospital!
"I'm sorry to tell you, Ms. Lawrence. None of you matched." The doctor stated, and I think my knees got weaker.
"Does she have any more relatives? We need to do this as soon as possible." He continued, and something came into my mind...
"Her dad." I blurted out, and Eden nodded.
"Yes, her father." She stated, and the doctor nodded.
"Where is he? There's a big possibility that they'd match." He asked, and we got our hopes back.
Red, just hang on in there. You'll be fine. You should be fine.
"The problem is... I don't have his contact number. Oh, my God, David, you're so stupid!" Eden let out, and we're in panic again.
"He said he's staying at a hotel. But I forgot to ask him where it was. I made him leave last night when Claire walked out. I'm such an idiot. I should've asked for his contact number." She blabs and is clearly, frustrated by the situation. Me too.
Well, I can't blame her. They're not on good terms, especially with Red.
"Umm... Who's her father, Ms. Lawrence?" My sister asked her curiously.
"David West. He visited last night and made my daughter run out of my house. He's such a jerk! I shouldn't have let him in. This is really all his fault." She replied, and my sister's face lightened. Does she know him?
"I can call him. He's actually my boss. Wait a second." She let out, and our heads turned to her. And she dialed his number and put it in a loudspeaker. We somewhat felt relief with all this. Please, God, don't let anything bad happen to my girl.
"Hello! Mr. West?" She said to the other line.
"Ms. Rivers, where are you? The meeting is about to start. Eleven o'clock, remember?" The man asked and reminded her.
"Sir, I'm at the hospital, and it's an emergency. I'll give the phone to Ms. Lawrence." She answered and handed her phone to Eden.
"Dave, get your ass in here quickly! Claire needs you." She yelled and told him the address of the hospital.
I hope everything will be okay.

"She's stable now. She might still be in a coma, but she'll recover in no time." The doctor stated that we could finally breathe properly.
Her father matched her blood, and it's great news that she's fine now.
"Red, get well soon," I told her as she's lying on the hospital bed, and I'm holding her hand.
Her head is badly injured because she's not wearing any head protection.
Eden and David are talking outside, and Shane sat on the other side of the bed while in deep thoughts. And Sam went out to cancel all their appointments for the day. It turned out that she's David's secretary and they're here for a business trip. They got lots of meetings and seminar workshops to attend, but Red's dad canceled them all.
"Sam? How are you?" Shane asked me while I'm busy staring at my girlfriend's face.
"Obviously, not fine, Shane. I'm a total mess. But I hope Dad will change his mind." I told her, and tears are about to build up in my eyes.
"Everything will be okay, Sam. Let's just hope for the best." She stated and encouraged me. Yeah, I hope so too.
Finally, I went home because my sister told me that Dad is waiting at home and it's almost six. And I felt okay when Shane said to me that she'd keep me updated with Red's condition. I wish I could stay by her side until she wakes up, but I am afraid my father would do something to her family if I disobey him.
