Gone

Author's Pov

As Amelia sat in the waiting room of the hospital, she felt numb. The seconds ticked by like hours, and she couldn't help but wonder what was taking so long. She couldn't stop replaying the events of the past few days in her head. She is blaming herself for everything that happened, from the kidnapping to the warehouse incident. The Russi family was still hurt but they were safe.

Her best friend was fighting for his life and at the same time so was her brother, Ivan. The chances of survival for both of them were very low and it was terrifying. Amelia wasn't able to think properly.

All her sweet memories with her brother start replaying in her mind. As she sat there waiting for any news, Amelia couldn't help but think about how much Ivan and Liam meant to her. They had been inseparable since they were kids, and she couldn't imagine a world without them in it. They were always there for her, through thick and thin, and now she felt helpless.
