I am glad to see you all like the story! Don't worry Martine, I also like happy Luby! Abby was sitting in the OR waiting room. Luka had been in surgery for the past 3 hours. When she arrived he was already in the OR so she hadn’t seen him yet. The trauma surgeon had been very short with her and all she knew was that he had an internal bleeding, due to a laceration in his spleen, and several fractures. Abby felt alone, so she decided to ring a friends who she knew would give her strength to get through this. “Susan, hi it’s Abby. Do you have a minute?” Abby said while trying to withhold her tears. “Off course what’s the matter? You sound terrible” Susan was worried. “Luka has been in an accident and I don’t know what to do” “I am coming to Boston” Susan said determined “That’s not necessary, really. I just need to talk to someone” “How is his condition?” Susan asked. “I don’t know, I haven’t seen him. He had a ruptured spleen and multiple fractures, that’s all they told me” Abby was crying. “Well, you have to be strong Abby. He will pull through, I know he will” “Thanks” “Abby I am sorry but I have to go. Keep me posted oke?” “I will, thanks” Abby hung up the phone. It was going to be a long night. Abby got another cup of coffee, she was to wired to sleep. The minutes that pasted felt like hours, Abby was watching the clock and walked every 5 minutes down to the main office hoping to get some news. When she finally decided to get some rest, her phone rang. “Mommy is that you?” It was Joe, who wanted to wish his patents a good night. “Hi buddy, how are you? Are you having a good time?” Abby was glad to hear her son’ voice. “Yes we went to the playground!” “I am glad to hear that sweetie” Abby didn’t tell Joe what happened, she wanted to wait and see how Luka would pull through the first 24 hours. “Sleep well and I will see you in the morning” “Bye mom” “We love you” Abby said as she hung up the phone. Abby' mind wandered to all the good memories that she and Luka shared.

“Mrs. Kovac?” A nurse entered the room and saw that Abby was sleeping.
She walked towards Abby and touched her arm.
“Mrs. Kovac, your husband is in recovery. You can go and see him now. His surgeon wants to speak to you ”
“Thank you, how is he?” Abby was awake and the adrenaline was rushing through her body.
“Just go. They will tell you everything”
Abby ran to the recovery wing. She needed to be with Luka.
“Are you his wife?” A surgeon approached Abby who was looking through the window into Luka’s room. A lot of people were still hooking him up on the monitors that were standing next to him.
“Yes” Abby was crying.
Dr. Johnson explaining what Luka’ condition was. They removed his spleen and fixated some of the fractures.
“We have good hopes for him” Dr. Johnson said as he was leaving.
Abby entered the room. “Luka, can you hear me?” Abby sat next to the bed Luka was laying in. He was still intubated and looked so helpless. Abby held his hand and gave him a kiss.
“I love you so much. You will fight through this. Joe and I need you to be oke” She put her head next to his body and closed her eyes. Now that she was near him she could get some rest.
Sunlight gave the room some color as Abby opened her eyes. She felt an arm around her shoulder and looked up to see who was standing next to her. She couldn’t believe her eyes.
“I told you not to come” Abby started crying and gave Susan a hug.
“Yes you did, but I know you better than you think” Susan held Abby tight.
“I am so glad you are here”

So many beautiful updates... I like this story, it's great to see Susan again and see she and Abby are still friends. I'm happy Susan decided to visit Abby in this difficult moment, even if I know Luka will be ok soon (right? You can't hurt him again). Hope you'll be back soon.

Thanks girls for all the lovely comments!!!
I will write an update this Saturday! Oke here we go! Luka stayed stable the whole week. Abby tried to divide her time as good as possible between visiting Luka and being there for Joe, she had taken time off from work. The doctors had continued the induced coma, because of the extend of Luka’ injuries. But today they finally decided to stop the sleep medication, so that Luka could wake up. Abby called Luka’ family to tell them the great news. They had been so sad over everything that happened. She loved his family, they called every week to talk to the three of them. Even when things were bad, the last time she visited them, they were always so nice to her. They were happy Luka and Abby worked things out and were a happy family again. “Hi Josip, it’s Abby” “Hi, my dear how is Luka? Any news?” Josip was nervous every time Abby called. He was afraid that she would call and say that Luka wasn’t going to make it. “I have some good news! They are going to wake him up!” Abby said ecstatic. “My prayers have been answered, thank God!” Josip started to talk Croatian. Abby couldn’t understand all he was saying but she knew he was extremely happy. After talking about ten minutes to Josip, Abby returned to Luka to say goodbye. She was on her way to Joe and Susan. Joe hadn’t been in the hospital to visit Luka, Abby wanted to wait until Luka would be awake. She was very glad Susan was there to help her, because last week had been very overwhelming. “Hi” Abby walked thru the door and was surprised Joe wasn’t running to her like he always did. “Hey Abby! I heard the good news, congratulations!” Susan gave her a hug. “Thanks. Where is Joe? Is he still sleeping?” “No, he and Cosmo are playing in the yard en Chuck is doing grocery shopping” “They came? I didn’t know that!” Abby looked surprised. “I thought it would be fun us spending the weekend together” Susan said. “I think it is a great idea”

Luka became more conscious every day, but Abby was hoping today would be the day he would open his eyes. Susan, Chuck, Cosmo and Joe went to the zoo, while Abby spend the whole day next to Luka’ bed.
She held his hand and rested her head on the bed next to his arm.
“I hope you open your eyes, we miss you so much. Joe is spending all day in the zoo, but he told Susan that he didn’t want to go and see the lions because of your routine. You and Joe scaring off the lions together ” Abby always talked to Luka when she was with him. She knew he couldn’t hear her, but she missed him so much. They had been in the zoo a lot, because Joe loved the animals. The image of Luka and Joe and their great relationship made Abby cry.
“He will wake up soon Abby” Susan put an arm around her, just as she did the first day after Luka’ accident.
“Are you back from the zoo so soon?” Abby was surprised.
“No the boys are still there, I just wanted to make sure you are oke. You looked so tired this morning” Susan said as Luka made a spontaneous movement.
“Luka, can you open your eyes?” Abby stood up and stroked his face. He had moved before but it seemed as if this movement was more powerful.
“You are in the hospital, they had to intubate you. Please just let me know you are in there? ” Abby was getting desperate of all the waiting.
Luka’ arm moved towards the tube, he clearly was uncomfortable.
“This is a good sign” Susan said while watching Luka move. Abby didn’t hear her, she was in her own world. Abby was fixed on his eyes, they had been through so much and she felt like the bond between them was so strong and getting stronger every day.
Abby whispered ”Just open your eyes, I know you can do it”, a tear dropped down her cheek while she gave Luka a kiss.
“Abby….look!”
