Chapter1 part 2 Together

Elexa Looked at them completely shocked not knowing what to say. Her heart was now beating even faster. She started to feel a little dizzy. “Miss, Miss are you ok?” the other police officer asked. Elexa still feeling dizzy, didn’t know what to say, didn’t know what to do, her heart beating faster and faster, and no longer able to keep her balance, Elexa past out. The slim police officer caught her before she had fallen to the ground.

The next morning Elexa awoke from a bright light shinning in her eyes. It was a doctor examining her. She jumped back. “What’s going on?” She asked with a worried look on her face. “Where am I?” She asked. “Not to worry you’re in good hands. I am Doctor. Mackey. Do you remember anything from the other night?” The woman Doctor asked Looking and studying her closely. “I, I am not, sure. But my head really hurts. Why what happened?” Elexa asked. The doctor looked at her very carefully. “Are you sure you don’t remember anything?” The doctor asked again. Elexa looked at her puzzled. Then remembered. Tears began to fill her eyes. Then before she new it she was crying uncontrollable sobs. The doctor sat on the bed next to her and gave her shoulder a light rub and walked out of the room. After a little while Elexa calmed her self and wiped away the tears that she had cried, and got out of the hospital bed. She walked slowly towards the door and opened it. “Oh Miss. Taylor, Hello, how are you feeling?” The doctor asked. Elexa looked up. “Where is my brother?” she asked in a whisper. Not loud but just loud enough to hear. “Oh your brother Anthony, he is in the room down the hall three doors to your right. He may be sleeping but feel free to visit him. Elexa not saying any thing more walked away towards her brother’s room. When Elexa reached his room she poked her head through the door. The doctor was right he was sleeping. Elexa walked into the room and sat in a chair that was next to the bed. She looked at her Brother carefully, and noticed a big purple colored bruise covering his eye and part of his face. She then realized that she had not yet been told how this tragedy happened. Elexa was pulled out of her thoughts when a man walked into the room. She noticed he was wearing a nametag. It read, Dr. Johnson. The doctor walked over to Elexa. "Hello I am Doctor Johnson. The man said and held out his left hand. Elexa took his hand and shook it. "You must be Elexa, Anthony's sister." The doctor said with a slight smile. "Yes." Elexa said and turned to look at her brother. "Well I am the doctor that took the X-rays of your brother and I am here with the results." The man said with a calm and gentle voice. "I, is he going to be ok?" Elexa asked with tears forming in her eyes, holding her hands tightly in her lap. "Yes, the tests show no damage but he should take it easy for a while just to be safe." The doctor said in a reassuring voice. Just then another man walked in. Elexa new who this was. A man in a blue uniform stood in the doorway. "Excuse me, but may I talk to Elexa Taylor? I need to ask her a few questions. The man said with his hat in his hand. It was one of the police officers that were at her house the night she got the news. Elexa stood up and walked out of the room. The police officer followed right behind her. "I am sorry to bother you but is there someone you and your brother can stay with?" Elexa looked up at the police officer that was standing before her. "I, I'm not sure." She said then turned and looked at the wall. "I see. Do you know if your father had a will or not?" The tall police officer asked in a low voice. ""I don’t know." She said, starting to have tears form in her eyes. "Ok then I will find out for you. You just stay with your brother and everything will be settled for you. Ok?" The man said. Elexa, trying to stop the tears managed a thank you. The man bowed his head and walked away. "Wait sir!" Elexa shouted. "Yes miss." The man stopped and turned around. "No, no one told me what happened to my brother and, and my father." She said while looking at the tiled floor of the hospital. "Oh yes, Uh hmm. Well your father and your brother were on their way from the Lumber Yard when a drunk driver came into the wrong lane; hit your father’s truck on the driver’s side.” The man said while softening his voice. Elexa got up and walked away not saying anything else. Elexa went to her brother’s room. The door creaked a bit while she opened it. The doctor was still in the room. "Ah excuse me but how come my brother isn’t awake yet.” Elexa asked in a worried voice. "Oh he was up very late taking X-rays and tests to make sure every thing was ok." The doctor answered. He should wake up soon enough.” The doctor said while taking her brothers blood pressure. She watched the doctor carefully as he was checking her brother. The man was pretty tall. He had white hair but he didn’t look very old. “Do you know when we can leave the hospital?” Elexa asked. “Well it seems your brother is doing just fine and he should be up soon. So probably very soon. Oh and I do not think anyone has told him about your father. So you might want to break the news carefully. After all he’s been through a lot.” The doctor said. Elexa looked at the doctor hard with hurt and pain in her eyes. She didn’t want to be the one who had to tell her brother that their father died. She didn’t even want to believe it, that a drunk driver would kill someone so kind like her father. Her mother had only died a year ago and now her father. This was too much. She felt like she would never get over her mothers death and now she would have to get over both of her parents deaths. Elexa was pulled out of her thoughts when she noticed that her brother had finally awakened. “E, Elexa?” Her brother asked while rubbing his bruised eye with one hand. Elexa jumped up and gave her brother a hug. “I’m so glad your ok!” She said with tears rolling down her face. Her brother sat there puzzled and then gave his sister a hug back. “Elexa where’s dad?” Anthony looked at Elexa with wide eyes. “He, he is ok isn’t he? Elexa is he ok?” He asked starting to raise his voice. “Elexa answer me where is he, where’s dad?” He asked, now shouting. “He, He, He’s dead.” She said now crying hard into her brother’s shoulder. “What, No he can’t be, he can’t be dead.” He said clenching his fists tightly at his sides. Then with out warning he to was now crying. The two siblings hugged each other and promised one another that they would be all right and that they would get through this. That they would get through this together.
