Hope and Love, Hope in Love Author's Note
Stories don't always end happily ever after. Sad endings could happen, too, but people don't accept them.In life, destinies should be accepted, even if it is a loss or a win; a failure or a success; a good or a bad. We all strive to be happy, and happy endings are not always what they look like. Life is continuous, and so the story. Sad endings are underrated, but realistic. If it is sad to other people who are seeing it, it could be the happiest ending for the main characters. It may be a hard-to-swallow pill, but anything and everything could happen.As a writer, I hope my readers would understand if my works could be seen as dark, sad, and lonely. I will do my best to give you the most bizarre ending you could think of. (It doesn't mean I won't give you happy endings, though. I am open to any kind of endings, and I hope you are, too.)I hope to see you support my next mini-novels, and stories.Thank you!Yours Truly,SUMMERBLAIRZZZ
Hope and Love, Hope in Love Chapter One
I am a 29-year-old woman. Feeling lost, feeling broken since I was 20.An accident ruined my life, my future, and my hope.Someone I really loved left me because I am useless.I have been useless for how many years… because of my paraplegia.Now, I want to tell you the story that gave me hope… and love.Let's start from when I was 21. A year after the accident.--“Hey, Blair.”I looked behind to see Rex standing with a wide smile.I smiled back. I steered my wheelchair towards him.“What brings you here?” I asked.He just shrugged, then kissed me on my cheek.I looked at him awfully.A kiss of an imp. I said to myself.“Something wrong?” he asked.I called my nurse to take me back to my room's balcony.“You must go now. I'm not feeling well today.” I said when I still felt his presence.“Is there something you want me to do, Miss?” My nurse asked when we were left alone.I turned my gaze to her.She smiled, as pure as the driven snow.A smile of a whore. I smirked at my thought.“The

You must be pitying me by now. I would, too, if I were you. Just look how bad I've been through. But there's hope, right?--Knocks on my door broke off my stare into space. My doctor entered with a man behind him. He smiled at me. “How are you feeling?”I didn't answer him. I closed my eyes, instead.“Until when are you gonna be like this?”I heard him sigh.“You gotta move on, okay?”Move on, your face. As if I didn't know that everyone was still talking behind me, even other patients.“Austin… are you sure you can handle her?”That Austin must be my new nurse. After two months, a nurse chose to take care of me. Does that make sense?“Yes, Dr.”I opened my eyes when I heard the sound of the door opening and shutting.“Hi.”My heart almost jumped out of my chest when I heard his voice. I looked in his direction. “Why are you still here?”“Your doctor told me to look after you. 24/7.”My eyes turned big, mouth agape with incredulity.“What did you just say?”“I said…” He smiled. “You

Things were getting interesting at that time, honestly. Could it be because of him?Let's continue…--Austin was a big help, truly. I started talking to other nurses and doctors. Some weren't afraid anymore, but they were still cautious. Because even I talked to them, I wasn't fully attached.I was eating breakfast when my doctors entered my room. I just knew their names today because I asked Austin. I didn't care before because I never thought that I would be in better condition here.“Wow, apples! An apple a day keeps doctors away.” Dr. Williams jokingly said.“Ms. Blair. We're happy to tell you that you are improving socially and mentally. We talked about this at our meeting yesterday. I think it would be fine now to let you go.” Dr. Brown said.I couldn't completely grasp what he said. “Come again?”“I said… You're better now than before. We think this is the right time. When was the last time you ate out? Or went shopping?”When I realized what they meant, I was so glad. That wa
Hope and Love, Hope in Love Chapter Four
I was glad to be out of the hospital after a year, but was also down in the dumps to start a new life without someone I would love to be with.I thought I would be free when I left the hospital. But, no. I would never be free. There was no way out of this miserable world of mine.See for yourself.--Early in the morning, I called my secretary to make breakfast for me.My secretary had been working for me since I turned 18. My father asked her to help me whenever I need her. My family has a company, and they wanted me to take over when I reach 25. Before that, they planned on giving me training, workshop, and management courses with my secretary because the course I took in college was General Education, and it was obviously far from managerial courses.Unfortunately, everything was ruined because of the accident. I wasn't able to graduate in college or to get training.Good thing, my secretary had things under control. Our company keeps going. She must have under too much pressure.I
Hope and Love, Hope in Love Chapter Five
I used to think that I am lucky… but the things that happened to me before make me realized that the gods must only be pitying me. One of those days had me think to just end my life, so no one would be in trouble because of me anymore…so, no one would feel in charge of pitying me anymore…--“What happened? How's the wound's hemorrhage?”“Stab wound, Class II. It didn't stop even after I put direct pressure. Prepare hemostasis (a process to control bleeding) right away. There's no sign of infection, but keep observing. She lost consciousness after she was hit on her head, we'll perform a skull x-ray, too.”I opened my eyes to see the doctors talking.Hospital…? I was in the hospital again, I supposed.“I don't think that's necessary, Dr. Biermann. We don't know if she really fractured her head.”Bier...mann...“I wouldn't instruct you to examine if I knew, Dr. Chen. We're doing X-rays because we don't know, that's its function. Please don't prove that you're just able to work in this
Hope and Love, Hope in Love Chapter Six
As you can see, my first year of being paralyzed had been awful. I was scared that it would continue for years. But, I was thankful enough to have someone like Austin to look after me.After the incident with Rex, nothing bad happened to me anymore. I had lived peacefully with Austin and sometimes with my secretary.Let's skip to the part just a year ago. Last year, on my twenty-eighth birthday.--“Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday...”I giggled as I saw Austin in a dinosaur mascot and my secretary in a giraffe one.“Happy Birthday to you!”I blew the cake they were holding.“Did you wish?” My secretary asked.“No. I'm contented.” I answered blissfully.It had been seven years since the last time I felt unpleasant. For the past years, these two took good care of me. They never left me, so I didn't have anything to wish for.I was aware that Austin gave up his residency in the hospital to be my full-time private nurse. So, he has to go back t

You must be curious about what happened after our fight that night.Here it is...--It was in the morning. I woke up a little late because I had a hard time taking a good sleep last night. I heard him went out last night, but I didn't want to follow him. I could have bothered him if I did so.I got off my bed by myself and went out to see what I could have for breakfast. As I got in, I smelled the aroma of coffee I always drank every morning.“You woke up late.”I held my breath as I saw him at the counter making coffee.“I thought you wouldn't come back.” I said sheepishly.“I'm just a nurse. And I'm professional. This is my job.” He didn't even look at me.He was cold, but I was happy to see him stayed. There was a part of me that was so relieved to know he didn't leave me.As I watched him prepared my breakfast, I remembered what he told me last night.“Can't I be someone special?”He surely had something to keeping from me, but aside from that, he had always cared for me.“Do you

Hope and Love, Hope in Love Chapter Ten
On that year, it ended...I just got into the hospital with my secretary from our meeting. I saw nurses rushing into Austin's room.I looked at my secretary.She asked a nurse who was just about to come in.“Mr. Biermann's vitals are suddenly unstable.”I felt weaker when I heard the news. The doctors asked us to wait outside. My secretary kept on cheering me up… That everything was going to be alright.Then, doctors went out of the room. My secretary went for them to ask. But, I didn't hear them talk. I steered my wheelchair nearer, but I still couldn't hear them.“What happened?” I called their attention.My secretary turned her gaze at me. Her expression was telling me something. The doctors walked away from us.“What's happening?” I asked again.My secretary didn't answer me, but I heard her sigh.I decided to just come into his room...And there I saw... Lira in the corner of his brother's room, crying. I went near Austin and held his hand. It was cold. I realized everything. Thi

It had been weeks, but Austin hadn't woken up yet.The doctors said there was nothing to worry because it was normal. We were asked to wait for a few more days.I was checked in to the hospital because no one could take care of me at home. Also, I didn't want to hire another private nurse.There was a knock at my door, Lira entered with a notebook in her hand.“How are you feeling?” She asked.“Just okay.” I tried to smile, but it turned into a crooked one.She pat my shoulder. “Everything's gonna be fine, Blair.”I nodded at her.“Here.” She handed me the notebook she was holding. “Take this.”I held it, confused. “What's this?” I asked.She just smiled. “You'll know. I'll go now.”I left alone, intrigued. I opened the notebook. I was shocked when I read the first date.Jan 20, 2012I was so wrong when I let Dad drive the trailer truck. It lost control and killed him. It was like I killed him.Jan 21, 2012I was so down. But I learned that another family had destroyed because of the

I opened my eyes as I felt sunlight coming through my window.“Good morning, sleepy head.”I smiled as soon as I heard his voice.He came near me then helped me to get up.When I sat in my wheelchair, he suddenly stooped his head down, then gave me a light kiss on my lips.We both blushed. And there he was again, ears turning red.We ate together for breakfast and talked about things. When we were finished, he suddenly got a call. It looked urgent, but I heard him say, “But I'll come later after lunch.”I tried to ask what it was.“Who was that?”He just shrugged then answered, “Just business.”“Your beer factory?”He didn't respond anymore when I mentioned their factory. But, I didn't ask follow-up questions. I was afraid he would get mad again.Before lunch, he cooked my favorite dish.“Let's eat together?”He shook his head. “I'm sorry. That call was actually urgent but I chose to stay for more hours with you.”I smiled coyly. I felt guilty. He noticed the change in my expression.
