She left alone with Sergeant Herrera, the nurses came into the room to check his blood pressure and to clean up the Sergeant, she volunteers to do cleaning, she assisted by the nurses to change his gown and clean his body and the wounds of the Sergeant.
She used to replace the bed sheet and blanket of the Sergeant. She decided to stay with the Sergeant for tonight, she doesn't even know why, but she had a feeling that the Sergeant needed her most right now or maybe she needed most the Sergeant for what happening in the Simpkins right now, there are times she thinks about the people of the Northern People of Simpkins especially the kids that have been closes to her heart.
It was already midnight she still awake, she turn on the lampshade that brings a little light to the whole room, she moves closer to the Sergeant to look after him, although for the whole day that she just starring at the Sergeant face she didn't tired of watching it. She pulled the chair closer to the Sergeants bed and sat down next to it. She holding the hands of the Sergeant and at that moment she never realized that her eyes she'd more tears, wishing that he gets awake, she didn't know how many times she says this things, and for his many times she sat beside the Sergeant and suddenly cried.
She could still see Sergeants face despite the slight light that illuminated the room. She decided to lay down beside the him, she hugs him tightly, he misses him like the sun burns its morning greeting, she misses a little more each day that has passed. His voices whisper in her heads. She only wish that tomorrow morning if she wakes up, there he was standing looking at her, smiling and teasing him again those are the things she always says to herself.
She didn't know for how many hours she had slept beside Sergeant Herrera, it was still dark all around and she just felt as if Sergeant's Herrera's touches her hand. She suddenly jumped on the bed and immediately turned on the light of the whole room. She looked at the Sergeant's hands in an unexpected happening his fingers moved and she also noticed that the eyelids are slightly open as if he wanted to open his eyes and stare.
She pushed the buzzer of the doctors room and for a moment the doctor went to the Sergeants room. He immediately checks it's pulse rate and the blood pressure, he checked the eyelids of the Sergeant and remove the oxygen attached to him.
"How is he?" She asked the doctor.
"Hmm... He's getting better, what you see a while ago is a sign that he can able to respond to what he heard and what he fell. Let's hope for the best."
"He will wake up too soon?"
"Well, Yes, but I can't say let's hope for the best but for now, he is stable, no machine attached to his body and even the oxygen... It's a good sign, just keep holding to your faith and believe."
She turns her looks at the Sergeant, she smiles, she felt the sadness and a heavy heart was diminished her hopes keeps stronger in her heart.
" Hey, bastard! for how long you will sleeping? "
" Get up... I will make a good soup for you, well I promise... I will put some more veggies and meat... Ha ha ha not that salt anymore." She used to laugh and cried when she says to the Sergeant who is still in coma, sleeping deeply.
The Doctor smiles too when he heard what Chyrill said, poor woman that she suffered more heart ache and the pain that cannot hide in her eyes.
She tapped Chyrill on the shoulder to say that everything would be fine as well.
"You must rest, Don't you worry too much... Sergeant never gives up, he has a man of word."
Chyrill just nods and smiles to the Doctor, she knows that he is trying to comfort her. Just like what he said she will believe to the Sergeant that he will be there soon.
" I'll see you around, Don't cry, you have a pretty eyes okay? Do not let the tears flow into your eyes."
Chyrill gets a smile from what the Doctor said.
"Yes, I will try to".
She wipes her tears and smiles again, maybe the Sergeant doesn't like to see her crying too.
Day 29 Her body and Soul
She now peeked out the window of Sergeant Herrera's room and from where he was standing she could see the thick smoke from above. The fighter plane of the Arland Soldiers has released a missile to invade the terrorists and let Abubakar Salem Ale surrender.
A beautiful morning of Southern Arland camp once before has faded away by the dark smoke, the fresh air that breathes every morning is full of gun powder in the cloud. The chaos rattling in the whole camp. She is hoping that the war will end soon. She is praying that Sergeant will wake up too soon, a happening last night was giving her hope and for all his brothers and sisters of the Arland Soldiers.
Just like that she used to do, she left a new make brewed coffee besides Sergeant bed and replacing fresh flowers that she put in the vase. She pulled the curtain down and close the window she doesn't want to see the chaos outside, she doesn't want to hear the series of gunfire.
"Hello, my love, When you are planning to get up on your bed? You sleep too much.. Don't you want to see me at all? I'm waiting you here.."
She sat on the chair and started to talk again with the Sergeant, it's about a week she does this as a routine every morning she is talking to the Sergeant and staring him for the whole day she didn't do anything, she just spends her whole day with the Sergeant, she will never be tire of doing so, until he gets awake.
In the past week she felt that there is so much happening, the chaos between the Arland Soldiers and the terrorists has never been over and the Sergeant still lying in bed. She breath heavily and she touches the face of the Sergeant.
She was getting surprised when Sergeant Herrera moves his head and howled, he slightly opens his eyes and he sees a light that makes him dazzle, he also looks like shadows that he can't be recognized he closes his eyes again and open it, at of this moment he gradually recognized the shadow in the front of him, the light that dazzled to him was faded, he see him clearly all, he can able to recognize the person in his front and it was Chyrill his beloved, he is sure of that, he wanted to say a word, but there's no coming out he sees Chyrill is crying now he holds her hands and smile at her that makes Chyrill cry more. She moves closer to Sergeant Herrera and hugs him tight.
"Dont cry... I'm here now."
"I know, you just make me feel worried all the time."
"I'm sorry, It won't be happened again."
"I need to tell to everyone, that you are awake."
"Ohh.. Yeah..
She wipes her tears and immediately goes out of the room, she will inform first the doctor that Sergeant Herrera is now awake, she walks fast, then ran too, people in the whole camp were getting curious about what was happening. She met the commander and out of the curiosity he asked her what had happened?
"Ms. Chyrill, Why are you running?"
She can't hide her excitement, she has a teary eye and she can't be able to speak a word.
"Hang on, calm down.... The commander said to her.
" Commander, He is awake. " saying those words with a teary eyes.
The commander was stunned by what he heard, Chyrill in a hurry to go to the quarters room of the doctor.
Meanwhile, Sergeant Herrera left alone in his room he is trying to recall of what had happened to him after they escaped from the Sans Serif terrorists.
He doesn't know for how many days he was lying in bed lost consciousness, he feels that he sleeps for so long, but he can sense Chyrill, her present, those kisses that he remembered and he fell. He was asleep, but he could still feel Chyrill. He looks around the room he notices the fresh flower in the vase and a new make brewed coffee beside his bed. He is sure that he smells that coffee, even if he is still asleep, thanks to the woman he loves she makes things so possible.
After a moment Chyrill goes inside the room with his doctor, they are both smiling at him and Chyrill was still crying.
"How are you doing Sergeant?" the doctor greeted him.
"I feel stronger for so many days that I was sleeping."
The doctor just smiled at him and moves closer to check him, He asks some question to Sergeant Herrera for him to able to know if he ever loses his memories or maybe things that he forgot at all. Lucky enough that he can detailed everything that was happening to him from the time he was captivated to the day that they had escaped from the terrorists. The bandage on his leg was also removed. He was surprised because his leg could not feel when checked it by the doctor, but he ignored it and he thinks that of because of too much sleeping and his muscle don't have much exercise.
The whole Southern Arland camp knows that Sergeant is awake and he was survived from the stage of coma, every now and then there is always a visitor coming and the commander itself went to his room alone.
Chyrill decided to go to outside, she left the commander and Sergeant Herrera, she knows that there is so much questions they would asked to the Sergeant.
She went to her room and gets her necklace, she is much happy right now knowing that the man she loves is out of danger and alive, there is so much running in her head right now if she will stay with the Sergeant for the meantime or is she will go back home alone.
It always gets dark when she decided to go back in the Sergeant room. Sergeant Herrera sat on his bed, holding a bouquet of flowers, she smiles when she saw the flowers.
"Is that for me?"
The Sergeant nodded and handed her the bouquet of flower. She moves closer to the Sergeant and gets the flowers from him. She could smell the fresh roses as if they had just caught on a branch. She could smell too the Spring that gives her a beautiful sight of love and life besides Sergeant Herrera.
The Sergeant kiss her hands, her forehead, and a moment later, Sergeant lips press against her lips, for a moment she was hesitating to kiss him back, but, she felt his kiss is burning her body.
