A Visit at the Hospital

On the other hand, she was also aware that she wouldn't have been able to stop herself from helping, even after contemplating it, no matter what the consequences would've been.

If she had the same chance again, she would do the same thing again. She could not just stand there and see someone die right in front of her eyes.

The medical personnel hurried back to the side of other paramedics who were getting ready to move the two unconscious men on the stretchers and reported to them that she knew nothing about the patients.

Not long after the two men were safely placed on the stretchers, they were carried into their own respective ambulances.

One of the paramedics hurriedly came to her side and informed her that she would have to go to the hospital with them since this was an accident case and they would have to report it to the police. She would be needed there to give the police her statement since she was a bystander in the situation.

She immediately agreed and sat in the front passenger seat of one of the ambulances. She hurriedly fastened her seatbelt after getting settled.

Immediately, the ambulances began to move.

As they were leaving, from inside the ambulance, she saw a few fire trucks heading towards the still burning car. Although the fire has settled down a bit, it is still burning at a constant rate. And the fact that there was a lamp post nearby that had also caught on fire was like fuel added to the flames.

Usually, the fire department should be here with or immediately after the paramedics arrive, but it seemed like they were stuck somewhere on the way here.

The ambulances sped down the road, their sirens sounding even louder in the tranquil night. Other than the sound of the sirens, there was roaring silence in the chaotic night.

With the fast speed of the ambulance running through the almost empty roads, they soon stopped at the front entrance of the emergency department where the ambulances drop off the patients.

The back doors of both the ambulances rushed open and two medical personnel pushed each of the gurneys, on which the patients were lying, into the hospital.

She hurriedly unbuckled the seatbelt and got off the ambulance, following them in.

The two men were hurried into two separate emergency rooms. All the equipment and medical staff were already prepared there while the patients were being brought to the hospital.

Not knowing what to do, she stopped outside in the lobby. A nurse hurried over to her and told her to sit and wait there until the police arrived.

She compliantly sat on the bench behind her, waiting.

She looked worried as she glanced at the close doors of the ER, but there was nothing she could do other than sit, pray, and wait patiently.

Although there were not many visible superficial wounds to the two men, she could not be sure of any internal injury.

She was all alone. She even had no idea about their family members either, whom she could inform and call over. At least not until the police came.

After about ten minutes, a few policemen arrived at the hospital. One of the policemen stepped toward her and introduced himself to her. He asked her for her name. "May I know your name, miss?"

"Amayah Young," she replied.

He talked to her for a while, taking her statement and contact information, and she was finally allowed to leave.

She wanted to wait there for the doctor to come out and assure her about the two people's situation since they both had no relatives around, but suddenly she felt a faint vibration coming from the back pocket of her jeans.

She took it out; it was her phone. There was a call coming in. She picked it up and answered, "Hello." The expression on her face instantly morphed into one of panic. After hearing what the person on the other side said, she hurriedly ran out of the hospital, not looking back.
