Jannie: It has passed a week already, hasn't he showed a sign he's going to wake up?

Sam: No, actually, he hasn't showed any sign at all, only that his body is still showing the signs that he's alive....

Ever since that stab in the head, Eddie hadn't no sign of waking up, the only thing that COULD show that he's okay is that he isn't rotting.

Jannie: Where is your wife and daughter?

Sam: Emiko is by Erma's side, she didn't stopped coming by to check him, even after school the kids come here to check how he is.

Jannie: There isn't no other person?

Sam: Yes, actually...

They looked to the side and saw a bunch of people sitted on the chairs.

Sam: Everyone there is coming here to check how he is.

Jannie: Wait! but aren't they everyone from the neighborhood?!

Sam: Yes, he is a very dear person by everyone, they were just trying to retribute what he had done.

She looked at everyone, there had old people, children, adults and even some teenagers.

Student: What happened to Mr.Eddie man?

Student2: He's been hurted on the head and is now on a coma, we just don't know what happened for him to be hurted like that.

The old couple were talking

Granny: Dear, how's Eddie boy doing?

Gramps: He's on bed, we just have to let him resting, do you remember that time i was sick honey?

Granny: Of course, i'm just worried...

They were hugging each other.

Kid: How's Mr.Eddie mom?

Mother: He's just sick dear, nothing problematic.

The mother was trying to assure the child that Eddie wasn't heavily injured.

Dillon: Man, how's the guy doing? he was kinda....cool i guess?

Alan: Yeah, he was nice to us, he even tried to give us cookies!

Elliot: What if they were poisoned?

Dillon&Alan: Shut up Elliot!

Everyone there was talking about how Eddie was, if he was okay, if he was gravely hurted or if he was awake.

Jannie: ....

Sam: Do you want to see him?

Jannie: .....It's....better if i see how he is...

They walked to the room, the scene was, Eddie on the bed, the machine not even turned since he doesn't have a pulse, Erma was on the side of the bed watching him while resting on her arms, Emiko was by her side patting her back.

Emiko: It's okay Erma, he's going to be okay....

She wasn't even showing a reaction, only seeing how Eddie was.

Emiko: ....

Emiko doesn't know what to do now, the kids were outside of the room waiting to enter inside the room, they weren't even doing something to distract themselves, the room was silent, no one doing nothing, only Emiko's voice could be heard.

Sam: How is she honey?

Emiko: Not good, she's still very worried, nothing that i said has calmed her....

Jannie saw how much Eddie, or whatever his name is now, is important to them. She....

'Thump' 'Thump'

Erma: ?

Jannie: Can i make you some company?

Erma: 'Nod'

They were seeing how he was, like he was just sleeping, peacefuly, calmly, like he was having the sleep of his life.

Jannie: Is he very important to you?

Erma: 'Nod'

Jannie: How much?

Erma was looking down

Jannie: Very much right?

Erma: 'Nod'

Jannie: I can't say something that will make you less worried, even i'm in fear now and i don't even properly meet him, i can just say is let's wait for the best, right?

Erma: .....'Nod'

Jannie: Just remember, he wouldn't like to see you like this, okay?

Erma was tear up a little

Jannie: Eh?! D-Don't worry, it's just that-

She hugged her.

Jannie: ?...

Erma was crying on her shoulder.

Jannie: ....There There, let it all out.

Her shoulder was getting soaked in tears, Emiko and Sam were smiling a little, it was obvious Erma was trying to not show that she was very very sad about Eddie's state.

Jannie: Are you alright now?

Erma: 'Snif' 'Snif' 'Nod'

Jannie: Go home, take a bath, eat well and go to sleep okay? You have to take care of yourself, when he wake up he probably will not like that you are skinnier or smelly.

Erma looked at herself, she wasn't skinnier but she was smelling herself to see if she was smelly, still nothing.

Jannie: Just go home okay? It's better to wait on the comfort of home for now, he's going to wake up soon, i'm sure of it.

Erma was smilling now, for the first time in this week, she wasn't so much worried.

Emiko: Let's go home?

Erma looked at her parents, then to Eddie, she smilled at him then 

Erma: 'Nod'

Sam: Let's go young lady, and you are going to eat something.

'Rumble'

They heard the noise and it came from

Emiko: It's as clear as day that you are hungry.

They grabbed her hands and the family was going to walk away.

Jannie: 'Smile'

Eddie: ......Hmmmm....

They turned at the sound and

Eddie: Hmmm.....Hmmm.....

Connor: Is that?!

Everyone runned at Eddie's side and they started to hear him mumbling.

Eddie: Hmmm.......'Cough' 'Cough'

Jannie: I'm going to call the nurse!

She runned out of the room.

Terry: Mr.Eddie! Wake up! 

They were getting more and more worried until he......
Raised his arms to the sky, he looked like he was wanting to grab something or.....

Hug someone?

Amy: Huh? What's he doing?

Sylvia: And what do we do? What he wants?

Eddie: Uhmmm.....Hmmm....

Erma: !

She noticed one thing, it's all or nothing.

Sidney: What are you going to do Erma?

She floated over him and

'Grab'

Hugged him.

Everyone: ?

Until

'Grab'

He hugged back.

The room was silent again...............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Eddie: ...... ?

He opened his eyes!

Eddie: What's.....Happening?

Everyone was looking at him.
