122 Remi wakes up

After three days Remi finally opens her eyes. She just looks around wondering how she got here. She sees her mom sitting in the chair asleep. She goes to move but her side hurts and she becomes dizzy with pain. The last thing she remembers is getting out of her car at Aisling's house. She needs to get out of here before he finds out she is here.

Astila comes in to check on her he sees she is awake . Looking extremely frightened Remi is trying to get the tube out of her mouth. Astila rushes over to her bedside to calm her . Whispering as to not wake up Charlie .

"Remi it is ok I'm here. No one is going to hurt you here. You are fine stop struggling. Now that you are awake I can take this out. Please stop now ."

He sits on the side of the bed looking into her eyes gently stroking her head. Remi begins to calm down. He pushes the button for the nurse. He wipes the tears from the corner of her eyes and smiles warmly at her. The nurse comes in and sees him with Remi knowing that now that she is awake he will want to disconnect her from a few things. Slipping back out of the room she goes to get the cart. Passing the head nurse.

"The patient in the corner room is awake. The Dr is with her." The head nurse nod in acknowledgment. Once the other nurse is out of earshot she gets her phone out to send a text. It's a text to her brother letting him know that the girl is awake.

Once the floor nurse is back in the room . Astila proceeds to take out the breathing and feeding tube. Now all Remi has is her Iv for medication and the blood pressure/heart monitor. Charlie has woken up and is now holding her hand.

"Now Remi you had to have surgery to stop the bleeding and to repair your liver. You have been asleep for several days. You have not eaten except through the tube. So you may be a little dizzy when we first get you up. You still have a lot of cuts and bruises but luckily nothing was broken in your face. I'm not going to lie I thought we were going to lose you for a while there. You will be ok just extremely sore for some time. Once you start eating and drinking more I will have the nurse take the catheter out so that you can go to the bathroom on your own. What ever you do do not try to get up without help. I don't want you to fall or you tear any stitches. Do you understand?"

Remi nods that she understands she keeps staring at the door . He knows she is terrified to be alone. He looks at Charlie

"Aunt Charlie do you want me to call the family or do you want to?"

Charlie let's him know she will do it. He nods and goes out to call Aisling.

Aisling is changing the bed sheets when her phone rings.

"Hello babe how is Remi?"

he chuckles he loves it when she calls him babe.

"She just woke up and I took out the breathing and feeding tube. So when Crystal comes tonight she can be closer to her mommy. She was terrified when she woke up trying to take everything out on her own. She is calmer now. Though I think at night we need someone stronger than Charlie staying with her. I will give Terry a call to let him know she is awake. "

"Ok,you know that Yona is at the airport to pick up Steve and He Jin . Also his friends have arrived from Tennessee. He called them to help with finding evidence for Remi. I don't think he feels Terry will do a good Job. You know we are running out of rooms. I moved the cribs a little in the nursery and put up a twin bed in there for Jasmine and Will can have Debra's Room. Luckily Inola and Moll haven't come back yet though they could go to Moll's home for now.  So Maureen and Onacona's are in their room. Crystal still won't leave Yona's side so she is still in his room. I am supposed to open the doorway today so may be when you get home we can do it together and give them a heads up before they walk into the thick of things." Astila agreed with her that they can do it together. Hanging up Astila has a very uneasy feeling about the whole situation. Giving Terry a call he tells him Remi is awake and terrified. That he wants her to have police presence outside of her room.

Terry lets him know they can discuss it when he arrives.

Astila waits for Terry outside of Remi's room. Sitting at the Nurses station looking over her blood work making sure everything is ok. Since he hasn't been here long he hasn't really taken the time to learn all of the nurses names yet. It's not until he hears a familiar voice that he looks towards the room across from Remi's. There he notices the head nurse. Looking at her he knows he has seen her somewhere before . He knows he has heard her grating voice before. Shaking his head he looks at the clock to see the time. It's almost shift change.

Terry is coming off the elevator when he sees Astila waving at him. He motions for him to follow him. They go into the on call room.

" I wanted to talk to you before you see Remi. She still looks really bad but is awake and responsive. By her response when she woke up, I'm worried she is afraid that the person who did this may come after her. That is why I asked about a guard outside her door. Everyone knows Remi doesn't speak but she can still write who did this."

Terry looks at Astila nodding in agreement.

"I will put a request in but you know we are a small force. I will see if maybe the State troopers will help out . "

"Was you able to find out anything yet?" Astila wants some answers and quickly for Remi's sake.

"I did talk to Marshal and Dean. Dean says yeah he was drunk and crossed the line with Remi . He alibied out though his sister Sasha says she had to take him home. That he passed out. "

Astila's anger and frustration is starting to get the best of him when he is paged. Excusing himself to answer the page. Goover to use the phone at the nurses station. He notices that the head nurse is still in the room across from Remi. Thinking it odd that she is still there during shift change . He checks the board there is no patient in that room. He calls the extension from the page and there is no answer. Calling the switch board to see where that extension is from. It's in the room that the Head nurse was in. He walk over to the room no one is there. Thinking how odd he decides to note the time. Before going back to talk to Terry he makes a call.

"Audis it's Astila I'm sure you have heard that Remi is awake . There is something fishy going on and I want permission for Yona and his friends to talk to security about a few things. "

Audis tried not to make waves but that's his family in that bed so he agrees to give Yona and his friends full support.

"I will make the calls nessary and I hear He Jin arrived today. If the sheriff won't supply a guard she is more than capable of protecting her. That's one of the reasons they came so fast. "

Astilla grins , God he loves this family . they make act like they are just a bunch of country folk. You mess with one you mess with all. He almost feels sorry for who ever did this.

when he gets back to talk to Terry he already knows that there isn't anything he can do at the moment. Terry apologizes right away that it's going to be a few days before he can get anyone to guard Remi . They shake hands and Terry leaves . Steve and HeJin arrive straight from the airport. He Jin gives Remi a big hug .

"Now Remi dear don't you worry auntie Jin is here and no one is coming through that door unless I say so.You just lay there and get better we will take care of everything else." Kissing her on the head she claims the recliner and places a few things within arms reach. Looking at Astila she tells him.

" I need you to call the Huns recourses office tell them you want a copy of every person working on this floors ID badge. I already told Audis that I need to know who is allowed and who isn't. So they think you are just wanting to know the staff before you start officially. So go take care of that for me before you go home to my baby ok." She flips open her book as if to say you got your orders now go.
