SEPARATED – Episode 42

“Can you even believe that? So our son is getting married to that rude brat?” Fred’s mom said in disbelief
” Calm down emilia, I’m sure the girl isn’t just ready to get stuck with a man she doesn’t love all her life” fred’s dad said
“Indeed” Emilia scoffed
“Fred,why aren’t you saying anything?” Emilia said
“I… I found emerson” Fred said slowly
“Huh? You found one of your twin sisters?” Emilia’s face brightened up
“Yes”
“Where did you find her? Who is she?” Emilia said
“She’s……. she’s my Betrothed,Luna allen” Fred dropped the bombshell

“What happened?!” Marisa shouted as she ran to meet isabella
They are currently at the hospital
“I don’t know,I also watched the news” isabella said
“Oh god! Why does this has to happen to my sweet luna” Nora lamented
Karen sighed and slowly walked to mrs macdonald, whose eyes is already swollen but still Continued crying
“It’s gonna be fine ma’am, I trust Evans, he’s a strong dude, he’ll stay alive for us” Karen rubbed mrs macdonald’s back as he comforted her
Mrs allen rushed into the hospital at that moment
“How’s my daughter? Where’s Luna?” She shouted
“Calm down ma’am…”
“Don’t tell me to calm down when my daughter is inside that room with different machines connected to her body” She yelled at the nurse
“This drama is enough,I need to give her a piece of my mind” Marisa said angrily and stood up
” Where are you going, Marisa?” Nora said
“Marisa don’t…” Isabella said
“I see agree to this,she needs someone to talk some senses into that empty skull of hers” Jenice said but Marisa couldn’t even listen to the remaining part as she already marched to where elina was standing
“Hi there’s ma’am, I guess you’re luna’s mom?” Marisa said
“Yes, I am”
“Alright,but do you know you’re wicked?”
Mrs macdonald stopped crying and raised her face to watch the scene
“Excuse me?” Elina raised an eyebrow
“Yes you’re so wicked,you and your husband aren’t worth to be called parents, how can you betroth your only daughter to a stranger because of a goddamn company? They both wouldn’t have gotten into an accident if you didn’t try to pull them apar, now are you satisfied? They both are in there fighting for their lives and if anything happens to luna,just know you’re to be blamed TVfor her death,both you and your devilish husband” Marisa yelled
By now,dpeople have already formed a circle and already making videos
“You ..”elina raised her hand to slap Marisa but she caught it in the air
“Excuse me ma’am, I’m not luna and you don’t have any right to raise your hand on me, you should try to change your ways instead of trying to hit me” And with that said Marisa Walked out of the place while her friends chased after her
Karen and the macdonald’s just have their mouths hanged open
Elina fight back her tears
An eighteen years old girl just insulted her
She felt hurt by the word but she knew what Marisa said is true,she isn’t worth to be called luna’s mother,even though luna is adopted
Elina rushed out of the hospital before the reporters get there

“What?! Your betroth?”Emilia said in shock
“Yes,mom”
“But how come? How…”
“Are you doing this because you don’t wanna get married to her?”Mr brooks said
“No dad, she has the same mark emerson has on her shoulder,same spot,on her shoulder,she got that mark when we were playing in the rain, she’s the one dad no doubt”Fred said
Mr brooks sighed heavily
“You try to get a string of her hair tomorrow,then we can r perform. A DNA test and know if she’s really one of your lost sisters”Mr brooks said
“That’ll be better”Fred sighed in relief
The tv caught their attention
“Daughter of the popular Allen couple,Luna allen was hit with a truck with her boyfriend,Evans macdonald,son of the third richest couple in New York,the criminals seeing what they had done,took to a run and the police are on the lookout for them,Luna and Evans are in a comatose state…..”
“Luna?!”Emilia said in shock
“Emerson…..”Fred rushed out of the room without waiting for a word from his parents
“Frederick wait!!”
***
“They both are severely injured but thankfully, they’re responding to treatment,the boy slipped into a temporary coma and will wake up soon,but the girl’s case is worse, she’s more injured than the boy and it’ll take long for to wake up or she may eventually…..Never wake up again”The doctor hesitated before saying the last part
“That’s not possible! Luna will never wake up again?!”Nora almost burst into tears
“I am not sure,I said she may slip into a permanent coma and she may not,if you’ll excuse me,I have other patients to attend to”The doctor said and walked out
“You heard that right?! Luna won’t wake up again!!”Nora cried out
Easy Nora! We are also hurt but it isn’t sure that she’s not gonna wake up again,you heard the doctor,he said she may and she may not”Marisa said
“The chance is 50/50″Jenice said
“I also feel bad,it hurts so much knowing that one of our friends is in this condition, especially someone like luna,she doesn’t deserve this”Isabella said
“I hope Evans is gonna wake up very soon,I miss him”Marisa said
Karen just continued consoling mrs macdonald’s,she stopped crying already,but she still has a bitter look on her face
Fred watched everything from where he was hiding
“Emerson”A tear drop fell from his eyes
***
“Doctor!! Doctor andrew!”A nurse shouted as she ran out of a room
“She’s Awake!!”She said as she rushed into the doctor’s office
The nurse came out with Dr Andrew and three other nurses and they all got into the room
“She really is awake!”Dr Andrew smiled as he stared at the woman who kept looking around the room strangely
“Where am I?”She voiced out
**
“Hmmm… So one of marisa’s friends has an accident today, interesting”Chloe smirked
“It would have been better if she had gotten into the accident alone,but she was with my Evans”Jane cried out
“Sorry jane”Ava said
“I guess the person that hits luna knows my plan already,One out,four to go”Chloe said
“Yeah!”Jane and ava chorused
***
Nora kept rolling around on her bed and a tear drop fell from her eyes
She feels so hurt, knowing that luna is in the hospital, unconscious and in a critical condition makes her heart ache so much,and she doesn’t know why
She feels like she’s the one in luna’s place and feeling all the pains
Another tear drop fell from her eyes
“Gawd!”
***
Fred just kept staring into space with tears rolling down his cheeks
“Come on fred, she’s gonna be fine,and besides, we’re not even sure if she’s your sister”Emilia said
“She is mom, I’m sure of that”Fred said
He actually walked out of the hospital earlier and drove back home, it’s gonna be suspicious if he just enter the hospital then start looking for luna
It just doesn’t make sense
“The doctor said she may never wake up again mom, emerson may die!”Fred said in tears
“She’s gonna be fine fred, nothing is gonna happen to her”Emilia hugged fred as she Continue consoling him
**
Marisa sat outside the house with her head up in the sky
“Luna”She said softly
“What are you doing here alone,candy?”Karen said as he appeared behind her
“Doofus”Marisa smiled
“You still haven’t answered my question”Karen said as he sat beside marisa
“I..err.. came to get some fresh air”Marisa said
“Came to get fresh air or thinking about Luna again?”Karen said
“I can’t help it”Marisa said in a sad tone, truthfully
“I understand how you feel Risa,but Evans is my friend and he’s also unconscious,they both will be fine, I’m sure of it”Karen said
“I hope so”Marisa smiled and placed her head on karen’s shoulder
“You know,I actually prefer you calling me ‘loudmouth’ than ‘candy'”. Marisa said
“Then I guess I’ll start calling you loudmouth once again”Karen said
“And I’ll continue calling you Doofus”Marisa smiled
