Meanwhile, while Glen was watching over Alexa, Lexie arrived with food. She noticed that Jack was not in the room. "Where's the one with you?"
"There's just something important to do."
"Is that so? Have you eaten yet?"
"I'm still full. I'll eat later. "
Lexie just went to the table to put the food she bought on it and arranged it when Glen asked her to. "What's Alexa's job?"
She stopped and sat next to Alexa's bed as well, but on the other side, so she and Glen were now facing each other. "Nothing," was her short reply. "Nothing?"
"Alexa is just at home and rarely goes out."
Glen frowned. "That's why she's so hard to find. It took us a few years before she was found, and with your help." Lexie wondered. "Me?"
"When I found out that Alexa is your friend and is who Jack is looking for, I called him right away, but I can't quite imagine that this will happen because he really wants to see Alexa right away."
She looked at her sleeping friend. "My anger with Jack has subsided because of what happened, but until Alexa wakes up, I won't talk to him first. But there was a reason for everything that happened. He didn't know that that day he would have the collision with Alexa that he had been looking for a long time. In all situations, not everyone is to blame for what happened to Alexa. They didn't want to, but it happened. So calm weather is coming when you don't know it, so I won't be angry with Jack. " Glen smiled a little. "Then what is she doing inside the house?"
"Writing."
"Of what?"
"From the story in the book, would you think she finished the HRM course, but she doesn't use it because she likes writing? She has written a lot, but unfortunately, it has not been accepted by the publishing house. She still does not give up. She's actually writing something now, but it looks like she won't be able to finish it because of what happened." "If that's what she really wants and she's happy there, why not?"
Lexie laughed softly. "If you only knew that Alexa is so stubborn every time I preach to her about her writing that she doesn't earn even a penny and is always awake." She looked at Alexa's face, so she looked away immediately and became sad again. "Some days I also had no one to talk to and would talk until she stopped because she was so happy to sleep and didn't even open her eyes for a second." She looked again at Alexa's face.
Glen looked at Alexa and Lexie when suddenly someone opened the door and Jack entered. "I'm sorry, I've been late, Glen." He glanced at Lexie at first and nodded in greeting. "It's okay, Lexie came right away." They swapped Glen's seat; he was now next to Alexa. Meanwhile, while Alexa was sleeping, she awoke in her dream and was walking down a long road with many white flowers. She was surprised because she seemed to be somewhere else. What she didn’t know was that she was asleep and was just awake in her dream. As I walk, I hold the flowers on the side of the road. "What kind of place is this? Why are there so many flowers?" I asked while frowning. A few moments later, a very bright light appeared on the other side of the road, so I was very curious. I went that way, but I was stopped when I saw two people standing as if waiting for me to approach. The two people standing facing Alexa at that moment were her parents, who had since passed away. "Mama, Papa!" said Alexa, with tears streaming down her face. I slowly approached them and quickly hugged my parents. "I miss you terribly. It's been a while since we last met! " Her tears kept running down her cheeks without stopping. The couple looked at each other and stroked Alexa's head. "How are you, Alexa?"
I took the hug away from them before smiling in response. "It's okay, Ma. I finished school with my aunt's help."
"Well, then your dad and I have enough that you're okay and happy."
"I'm happy, but not completely because you weren't by my side when I walked onto my school's stage and no parent was beside me."
My dad's face was sad. "Alexa, I know you were strong at that time, but we didn't hold the time, and we didn't know then that we would pass away early. We see you from here to where you are on Earth."
My forehead furrowed. "Earth?" I wondered, unsure of the word. My mom held my two hands. "Don't you remember what happened to you on Earth?"
I shook my head and looked back and forth at my dad and mom. "Your body is already in a hospital and you are sleeping with things attached to it." There are also people waiting for you there."
"I don't understand."
"You had an accident, Alexa, and you've been in the hospital for almost a month and haven't even shown any sign that you're going to wake up, but I'm telling you, it's time for you to decide if you're going to stay here or come back into your body again."
I think about what my mom said, but if I choose to stay where my parents are, Lexie and my aunt will be left behind, so I'm confused now. My mother noticed it. "For now, it looks like you're confused, Alexa. Don't be in a hurry because you still have a few days to decide. For now, let's have your dad's bonding first. "
I just nodded and happily walked towards the end of the field. The day passed when Jack and Lexie almost went back and forth to the hospital, and it was noticeable that Jack lost a little weight because he usually watched over Alexa from night to morning, so he also didn't have time to sleep for a long time. Glen visited the hospital again and saw Jack close his eyes while sitting, so he tapped him on the shoulder. "Jack, are you okay?" He was slightly surprised. "Of course, I'm a little sleepy."
Glen sat down on the sofa. "Are there still no signs? She's only been here for a few days and almost a month. Did the doctor say anything if she didn't wake up before Alexa was comatose for a month? "
He shook his head. "Nothing yet, maybe two days before a month and then the doctor will tell what to do."
Glen, on the other hand, noticed that the t-shirts he was wearing were loose, which they weren't before. "Your body has also lost a lot. Are you still sleeping? " Because Glen doesn't go to the hospital every day—sometimes it takes five days before he shows up again—he noticed that Jack had lost weight. "Yeah, but for a minute, I can't sleep straight for very long either."
Glen picked up the bag full of food. "Is that so? But I brought some food. Eat first, and later you'll replace Alexa in bed because you didn't take care of yourself. " He was also hungry, so he ate at the same time. Meanwhile, while Lexie was going home to cook food that she could take to the hospital, she noticed Alexa's room was glowing based on its slightly open door. Lexie was scared and hesitant to go inside, but Alexa's room was so bright that she thought that maybe a power cable was on fire. She slowly entered as her hands covered her eyes in the extra light of the surroundings. She noticed that the light was slowly fading, so she removed her hand from her eyes, but to her surprise, the light came from the page of the book, which amazed her. In the book, she shifted her eyes to the other side of Alexa's bed because she heard a crack and quickly looked at a shoe that could be seen at the foot of the bed. In great fear, she took the hanger from the side and slowly went to the other side of the bed, but suddenly someone stood up, whom she almost shouted out loud. Thank goodness she stopped, otherwise, they were so loud, and she thought that they had a problem in their house if their neighbors heard her shouting.
She pointed the hanger she was carrying at the person who suddenly appeared in Alexa's room. "Who are you? How did you get in here inside our house? " She asked boldly, even though the person in front of her was not scared because she might be attacked later. The strange person looked into her eyes, and she could see her gentle face. Slowly, it raised one hand and pointed to the open book. Her forehead furrowed. "Are you from the book?" It nodded at her.
"How did the book do that?" Lexie was still confused. "I also don't know why I'm here. I was sucked in by a portal, and I came out of the book by myself." She was very surprised at what was happening because now in front of her was a woman in a school uniform. "What is your name?" she asked. "Daniella."
"Are you sure you're from the book? You didn't come from outside the house and just come in here?"
"It's true that I'm from the book, and I'm not lying to you."
She just held her forehead and tried to think about how it happened, and in her mind, she said, "Ever since I saw the book, I have had a strange feeling that it was not ordinary and this is exactly what happened."
"Are you one with strange powers or a princess?"
"I have no power, and I am not a princess." "But based on what you're wearing, you went to a school, and I think you're just from here in our world. Do you know the name of your school or where you live? "
Daniella shook her head. "I only know my name, and I no longer know where I live."
"How did that happen?" with so many questions to herself. She smelled something burning, so she hurried out while saying something to Daniella. "You're staying there! I'll just do something! " She finally got out and turned off the lit gas stove, then went back inside the room and saw that it was already sitting on the bed. "I don't know what I'm going to do to you. You can only talk to Alexa about what happened to you; she's still in the hospital. I can't leave you here either, so I'll just take you to the hospital until Alexa wakes up." Daniella just stared at her. "You stay here again, and I'll only prepare what I can bring." Before she left, she first looked at the book and closed it because she planned to take it to the hospital as well. Lexie left the house with Daniella and went to the hospital, and when they were there, Lexie saw Jack coming out of the room. They went inside, and it looks like Jack was the only one who went now, because she didn’t see Glen inside. As they approached Alexa's bed, Daniella just stared at Alexa and asked. "Who is she?"
Lexie looked at Alexa. "My friend."
"What happened to her?"
She sighed. "She had an accident and was hit by a car."
"It's just like she's sleeping, isn't it?"
She smiled slightly at what Daniella said. "I wish she was just sleeping, but she's not. Come sit here first. " She sat with Daniella on the other side of Alexa's bed. A nurse entered the room. "Excuse me, Ms. The doctor is calling you; he needs to talk to you. "
"All right, thanks." The nurse left, and she turned her gaze back to Daniella. "Don't leave here, Daniella. I just need to go somewhere. Watch her okay first." Daniella nodded in response.
Lexie came out, and Daniella was just looking at Alexa.
