章節 7: Aftermath
"WHAT....!"
"Jarvis give all info on this . Now."
"Affirmative."
"You gotta be kidding me....."
"Sir , I've got seven reliable source networks confirming the news."
"No no no no no ...Aaaargh.....check the boarding list and see if dad checked in"
"In a moment ...."
"No...please no..."
"Sir , Howard stark has indeed been checked in to the said flight."
"This can't be happening..." Soon tears formed in my eyes...
"Tony....what happened.....?" Hearing my shout mom also came to the living room to check if I was okay.
That's when she also saw what was going on the news.
"THUD..."
"Wha....mom....mom....mom wake up..."
"Shit....she fainted...jarvis call emergency."
Later in the hospital...
I was standing outside the ICU waiting for the doctors to come out.
"Doctor...how is she..." I asked the doctor who came out.
"Is she your mom....?"
"Yeah."
"Where's your dad...?"
"He had an accident today. Mom fainted seeing the news." I said barely able to hold back the tears.
"Oh.....I'm sorry about that...do you have any other relatives around.... we'll need them to sign some of the papers. "
"Don't worry....I'll sign it ." I heard a voice being me and turned around.
"Uncle david ... Melissa..."
"Don't worry tony. I'll handle things here. Take some rest.." He said to me while going to the doctor.
"Tony....." she called out to me.
"Hey...mel...I'm just fine..Just give me some time alone.." I sid to her with a wry smile...
After some time I'm sitting on chair in the hospital lobby.
"Tony....."
I raised my head and saw uncle again.
"Uncle.....dad..he...."
"Don't worry , we're still not clear about the situation yet. I'm sure he's fine.
I know he's lying. There's just no way....But right now some part of me just want to believe those words.
The next day
Mom finally woke up. She cried alot . But the doctors said she was going to be okay.
The incident was too much of an impact on her.
Not to mention me. I don't know what to think anymore.
Looks like I've been treating this life like a dream or a game.....
This is my reality now.....
This is where I live....where my family is.....
Yet I was acting like a spoiled little princess..
Looks like I was taking things for granted....
Yes...I was...
A month later....
Mom was discharged from the hospital a week later.
The wrecked parts of the exploded plane was found from the ocean...But none of the bodies were to be found.
I find this hopefully....there is still a chance...
Even thought the official declaration was that the bodies were eaten.
We still held a funeral for him...
Uncle David helped a lot.....He must be a busy man . Still doing so much for us.
Melissa too .....She comes home everyday.... Checks up on us....
I haven't slept peacefully since that day...
When I close my eyes all I see is his face.
I didn't even say goodbye to him...What a great son i am....
I really let him down huh...
Right now I'm in a nearby gym.....I come here the nights i can't sleep.
Punching the bags are good to went out frustration and stress...
"THUD THUD thud thud..."
Ignoring the sore fists and fatigued body i continued hitting.....
"Can't sleep....?" I turned around hearing someone behind me...
"Why did you came here..." i asked uncle david who was standing by the door.
"Your mom said you had trouble sleeping and was sneaking around in the nighttime..."
"Tony do you think he would have wanted this....Punching a bag all night wasting your potential..."
"Yeah....like I was better before. All I did was while like a bitc.."
"Language.."
"Sigh....."
"All I have to say is that , now he's gone , you're all your mother has.....you can't make worry about you too..."
"He's not...."
"What....?"
"he's not gone....They haven't found the body yet right....there's still hope...."
"Tony...you gotta let it go...you have to move on....."
"Some do...
but not us... THUD....." I said punching the bag and sent it flying.....
"Sigh....." Sighing David left the boy alone to give him some time to clear his head....
Noticing that he's gone. I sat on the ground.
"Move on...huh..."
After sometime i grabbed my things and went out of the gym....There were already some people in the gym...
Looks like it's morning already.....
Walking towards home I bought a newspaper from a stall next to the walk and started reading it on a bench nearby....
"It's still going in the news even after one month....an attack this big and no
organization have taken responsibility....."
I was in deep thought when a hand pressed on my shoulder.
"Hey... could I borrow the sports section...?"
It was a familiar man with white hair and wrinkles on his face.
