"Mr. Mo"
This...
"Mr. Mo"
Someone is calling my name...
"Mr. Mo, are you awake?"
My head hurts...
"Miss Smith, Mijail is not moving"
Who is this 'Miss Smith'? I don't think I know her.
A girl was sitting beside a young man with light brown hair. She began to shake him up, but when she lifted up his head, his nose was bleeding.
"Miss Smith! Mijail is bleeding from his nose and mouth!"
"Mr. Flippers quickly call an ambulance!"
"Yes teacher!"
Am I bleeding? Why? Argh... My head hurts!

Five hours before.
A young man was walking in the park, watching how the families were having a good time in that beautiful day.
He seemed to be in deep thought.
A little girl approached him.
"Excuse me, can I sit by your side?" the girl shyly said.
"Yes" the young man looked at her with a smile.
"My name is Kate, what's your name?" after some time in silence, the little girl asked.
The young man looked at her with a confused expression. More than two hours have passed, but no one seemed to be looking for her.
"My name is Mijail Mo-Uh, are you alone in the park?" Mijail couldn't help but ask.
He knew that something was amiss with the little girl named Kate, but he couldn't point it out.
"I was taking a walk alone, my mom told me that I can go on a stroll near my home" the little girl looked at him with her bright blue eyes.
"Well, its time for me to leave, I have to go to do some important things" Mijail told her and said good bye to Kate.
"Good bye Mr. Mo-Uh, hope you are successful with your important things" Kate waved her hand.
Mijail walked on the street for a long time before arriving to a huge building. This building was owned by one of the most famous and rich companies. Mijail was looking for a job and an old friend of his father recommended him to work as an assistant.
Ever since he was little, people told him that his looks were average and that getting a job in the financial world was his best option, however he was always attracted to biology. Sadly, he didn't pass his exam for the Biology and Nature University of Brazil, so he applied to the Financial and Economy University of Chicago. Finally he graduated and began his hunting for a job.
After the interview, that went smoothly, Mijail was walking confidently on the road when he saw the little girl named Kate leaving the park.
When the traffic lights got red, she crossed the street always checking both sides before crossing. Mijail was amazed of how Kate was able to be this careful in the street. While he was praising her inwardly, he saw from the corner of his eye that a red car was approaching with all its might towards the little girl was. Without thinking, Mijail ran towards Kate and before the red car arrived, he pushed her out if the way the car was heading. On the other hand, Mijail was unable to dodge the imminent crash.
People surround him and also stopped the red car. Someone called the police while others called an ambulance to take Mijail to the nearest hospital. A woman approached to Kate and asked her if she knew him. The reason for the question was because the girl's eyes were dropping tears but not like she was afraid, but more like she was worried and sad. Kate nodded slowly.
When the ambulance arrived, they took the child too, to check if she was hurt.
The hospital quickly called Mijail's parents and Kate's mother.
Mijail's parents were the first in arrive to the hospital, while Kate's mother took around an hour to arrive.
At the end, Mijail's wound were to severe and the doctors couldn't do anything to save him. They told to his parents that the best they could do was to wake him up and give him a painless rest. His mother was devastated and his father was furious with Kate's mother. He sued her for leaving a little kid out in the streets without any supervision and leading to the death of his son. When the doctors heard that the little girls was left alone in the streets, they immediately called Social Services for Child Protection.
Finally, Mijail woke up but he felt weak. When he opened his eyes, the first one he saw was her mother and Kate crying. Then he saw his father with a sadness emerging from all his body while his eyes were full of tears. Mijail knew he was silently crying. For some strange reason he knew he was dying.
"Don't worry mom, in short I will be in a better place" Mijail warmly smiled.
Kate look at him with a serious expression with tears all over her little face.
"You are going to be at a better place than this, just don't forget us"
After those words, Mijail felt that his eyelids were heavier and finally he closed his eyes.
*******
Right, I died from a car accident and I saved Kate. But... why do I still feel pain? Especially a headache?
Mijail opened his eyes and saw a white roof. The headache was decreasing.
Finally, Mijail tried to look around but someone stopped him from doing it, then a warm and relieve voice called his name.
"Mijail, try to don't move. You were bleeding to death an hour ago. Just rest" a woman was caressing his head.
That voice was familiar to him, but he couldn't remember when or where he had heard it before. After some minutes he heard the same voice asking something to a person that then give her a permission for something.
Mijail felt that someone was helping him to turned carefully his head and he saw the owner of that familiar voice, a beautiful lady that was in her mid-age was looking at him with the eyes of mother looking at her child, but when he saw her he couldn't help but ask:
"Where I am? Who are you?"
