Chapter 74: Leah

Zayn turned to her with a small smile as he nodded his head.

"I’m sure you’ll be okay, the doctors are still getting your girl treated, I’m sure she will be alright," Phoebe said persuading Zayn’s answer to know if the girl was his daughter.

"I’ll try my best to stay boosted, I’ll try to make myself accept the fact that whatever the doctor says then I’m ready to accept it," Zayn said.

Phoebe bit the inner part of her lip, he was talking about the girl like she was his daughter.

"Hmm, I know how the feeling was, it’s the same when I heard about my Aunt but everything is going to be fine," she stated.

"Should we enter the hospital, I want to see Leah’s condition?"

"Hmm?" Phoebe was unfamiliar with the name.

"I meant the girl in the room."

"Okay," they stood up as Zayn drank the water in his bottle and then he threw it in a recycling bin.

Getting to the theatre room, Leah lay on the bed as the nurses took attentive care of her, and medical treatment was given to her.

Seeing the heart rate system was still beating, he had a little relief seeing she was still okay, she was being treated, and his watch on her made him feel a little bit depressed.

Phoebe came forward taking his hand as an impulse was sent of her love.

Showing him everything was going to be okay.

She was going to be alright, even if it meant she had to know Zayn kept some secrets from her.

After all, he was going to tell her one way or the other.

She knew he was going to tell her about everything, he couldn’t just keep it away from her.

She trusted him.

With a smile on her face, they were interrupted by the voice of someone who ran through the halls calling out Zayn’s name, he removed his hand from hers, and then the woman ran towards Zayn hugging him as her eyes were on the girl through the visible part of the door.

Because of her speed Phoebe was unable to see the woman but what she could recognize about the woman was her back, she looked just like the same woman she saw Zayn flirting with that day.

Oh my, could it be possible for the girl to be their child?

She watched them in the moment staying silent and numb, she watched him pat her so dearly as Zayn placed his head on hers.

"Don’t worry she’s going to be alright," Zayn comforted as the woman whimpered in tears.

"She’s, she’s in there, Zayn, please do something about it, how did she get involved in a car accident, I don’t get it?" She cried out in pain as Zayn embraced her pattering her back he whispered into her ear telling her everything was going to be okay and then he kissed her on the forehead.

Maybe their relationship was close.

She couldn’t believe she was going to see him kiss another girl in front of her.

She nervously stayed in front of them watching their actions, but she was unable to control the emotions that were trying to eat her up.

Biting her lip unconsciously, she rubbed her palm on her other palm.

"I’ll go now," she said in a whisper telling Zayn without informing the other woman but before she could go away from the place, Zayn held her hand.

"I want you to stay with me, be by my side," he said in a clear tone as Brooklyn recognized her presence without knowing that there was someone else who was with Zayn.

She slowly drifted away from him taking a look at who was the woman Zayn was talking about.

She couldn’t believe her brother, giving sweet talks despite the situation.

She felt a little heartwarm to see that someone stood with Zayn.

"You must be Phoebe," she recognized her as Phoebe reluctantly answered her.

"Yeah, I’m —"

"Is my fault, you don’t have to go anywhere, you both can stay here too, we can look at Leah together, I’m sure she’s going to make it out alive, I’m sure my daughter is going to fight for her life."

"Hmm," Phoebe nodded her head though she was ignorant of her words, she knew the girl was hers and Zayn’s child but when she looked at her and Zayn, she could spot some similarities that were among the both of them, and likewise, they seemed to be siblings.

"Thank you for being there for my brother, you helped him in his time of need. I’m sure he must be pretending to be strong In front of me but I know just like the way I’m hurt, he’s also hurt with the fact about what happened to my darling daughter. "

So all along she’s been jealous of a sibling, she couldn’t help but feel like slapping herself, she was behaving stupidly and yet ignorant, maybe too obsessive about Zayn.

But she doesn’t want to portray that attitude of hers, she just wants to be there for Zayn, be the sweet one to come comfort him in his better times but here she was suspecting Zayn and his own sister.

She walked towards Brooklyn taking her hand she looked at her with the view of comfort.

"Trust me I know she’s going to be alright, I’m sure she’s just like her uncle, strong, bold, and confident, just like the way he is she is also, she’s going to come out soon, so there’s no need to worry, okay?"

Brooklyn sniffed her running nose with a heart which felt the gaze of her words she couldn’t help but embrace Phoebe.

" I know but I don’t know how I’m going to keep it in, I’m just so worried, what am I going to tell her father? What will he say when he discovers all these about Leah, I’m so scared that I might—"

" Trust me I know how that feeling is when you’re scared to lose someone you love but she’s going to be alright, just wait a few more moments for the doctors to be done with their medical treatment and once they come out from the theater room, is going to be about Leah surviving the accident and how she’s going to have a long period of rest. Okay? "

She said wiping the tears of Brooklyn.

" She’s going to be okay, you just have to have that confidence in Leah and God, they both won’t fail you. Leah still needs her mother and God still knows he has someone who’s waiting for her daughter, just sit and wait for a few moments, try and relax to hear the result and then we’ll know how to take it from the other party. But as for now, I’m sure Leah wouldn’t want to see her mum crying. "

For the rest of the moment, they stayed silent awaiting the reports of the doctor.

When the doctor came in their hearts once again pumped like it was shot a adrenaline.

"Sir, how is her health?" Brooklyn was the first to ask.

"You don’t need to worry, she’s okay, she was able to survive the accident and we’ve been able to take her from her critical condition, don’t worry, she’s going to need a few days to recover, she’s quite a strong girl. "

" Can I see my baby? "

" You can get to see her but you have to know that the time of recovery is important, don’t stress her—"

" I’m fine by it doctor, if is to see her that’s all I want. "

" Okay, " the doctor went away as they left the moment for Leah to stay in the room to rest.

She was taken right from the theater room to the ward that was booked for her.

Zayn knocked on the door on behalf of Brooklyn, opening the door immediately as Leah turned to the side, her face lit with excitement seeing her uncle.

" Uncle Zayn, " she said in excitement, opening the door for Brooklyn, she walked into the room.

" Oh my baby," she said as she walked towards her.

"Mummy, " Leah tried to sit up but then Brooklyn walked toward her immediately to stop her.

" Don’t stand up dear, you have to take a rest, do you know how much you scared mummy? I thought of so many things. "

" No, mummy you don’t have to say anything, I’m okay as you can see. "

Brooklyn couldn’t help but chuckle at her daughter’s smartness.

Zayn still stood outside with Phoebe seeing her anxious feeling he turned to take a look at her.

" Are you worried? " he questioned as Phoebe took a look at him with a smile on her face she shook her face.

" No, is nothing, " Phoebe stated rubbing her palm anxiously.

" I’m not scared, I’m just feeling a bit—"

" Is it about Leah? "

" No, no, I’m just feeling a bit weird today, I had something to do before meeting you and I’m still here, I’m just worried my mum doesn’t notice I’m out. "

" Oh. "

" So, Leah, she’s your niece. "

" Hmm, " he nodded.

" You both seem to be that close, the way she was excited seeing you she seems like a good kid who loves her uncle. "

Zayn chuckled at her action, both Leah and Phoebe were just alike.

" Since you’re here, do you mind meeting with Leah? "

" Hmm? " she questioned stunned by his question.
