Chapter 31: The Decision Is Made
"Jay, I have not known you for the longest time but I know you are good for my sister. You are already family to me. I can't make this decision alone. I won't force you to partake in our life but I need your support right now. I need to try to bring Belle back. I need to try." Joe pleaded with Jay.
"I don't know about this. What if she dies. I can't bring myself to live without her. She's the best thing that ever happened to me. I don't know".
"I need you to be strong for her. We need to try. I rather she dies knowing we tried to save her than not doing anything. I'm not ready to loose her but I'm willing to try to save her".
They both went back and forth and finally after a long discussion they decided to go ahead with the test drug.
Dr. Alice and Dr. Percy came back to the room. Dr. Percy was shocked of the decision made but he understood that they wanted to try to save Belle.
Dr. Alice led Joe out of the room to get the paperwork done.
Joe was left in the room alone with Belle.
"Belle, Babe... wake up. I miss you. I need to hear your voice. You have been asleep for too long. I hope you forgive us. We are trying to save you. I hope you understand. Please stay strong and survive this. Don't give up on us. You need to be there for Dan and Joe. You are their family. They won't do without you. Besides them, there's me. I'm ready to take care of you for the rest of my life. I was lost. I didn't believe in love until I met you. You made me understand and feel love again. Once again, faith tested me. They want to take you away from me but don't let them. I need you. I love you", cried Jay while holding Belle's hand.
...............................
The next day, everyone gathered in Belle's room again. 72 hours had passed and it didn't seem like Belle was going to wake up. The paperwork was done and everyone was saying their well wishes to Belle before the surgery time.
It finally hit 10 am. It was time for Belle's brain stimulant surgery. Two nurses came into the room and prepped to move Belle for the operation.
Suddenly, Joe had an outburst. He started crying and holding on to Belle. Jay was trying to restrain Joe. He, himself was holding back on his tears.
Meanwhile Shiela and Dr. Percy were arguing. Shiela couldn't understand how could Dr. Percy not stop Joe from making such a decision.
Sitting down on the sofa was Danny and Claire. They were both upset but instead of kicking up a fuss, they were both stunned at the reactions in front of them.
All of a sudden, there was this sweet angelic voice.
"It's too loud. Can you guys go fight elsewhere. I'm trying to take a nap".
