She is getting a seizure

and pieces. I can't make it out. I tried to open my eyes and try to talk or at least move my hand. But I can't, my body feels numb. And soon drifted off to unconscious.

I heard someone sobbing, calling my name. I remember that voice. I don't want Sophie to cry. I tried moving my body. To tell her I'm right here and I'm fine, not to cry for me.

"Amy, Amy are you there?" I heard Sophie's panicked voice.

"Doctor, Nurse she moved her hand. Amy moved her hand," I heard her shouting.

I opened my eyes with a lot of difficulty. Blinked them a few times to adjust to the lighting around me. A doctor came and asked me my name, details. I saw Sophie sobbing in a corner, next to her stood Kristina with tears in her eyes.

"I'm your doctor. Can you tell me what is your name?" he asked me.

"Amelia" I told the doc with my hoarse voice.

"Can you remember, what happened?"

"I went to a charity ball with my parents,while returning, a car crashed into our car, making it roll over"

"Where's mama and dad? Are they okay? I want to see them" I asked, looking at Kristina.

"Take it easy, You fractured your left hand and have a few broken ribs, you are unconscious for a two weeks now" the doctor said.

Peter entered the room with Jason and Ryan.

"What happened to mama n papa?" I asked this time little more worried.

Kristina walked to my side. "I'm sorry" she said, holding my hand, and nodding her head in denial, this time tears raced down her cheeks.

I pulled my hand from her hold. This can't be true. My parents are fine. They probably went home after staying all night by my side.

"What do you mean?" I asked her.

"We are sorry for your loss." This time the doctor spoke.

"Your mother suffered contusion to the brain and expired before the paramedics could reach your car, your father has multiple fractures, and punctured lungs, after reaching hospital his blood pressure was fluctuating,he got heart attack in the middle of surgery we tried but we couldn't sorry." Continued the doctor.

I felt numb. I know I have to cry. But I can't feel any emotion. I just stared the doctor in the eye. Soon I can feel my body twitching, pain in my arm. I want to shout and for my parents but I'm not able to utter a word.

"She is getting a seizure" I heard the doctor shout. Soon I felt something prick my arm, and I drifted to unconsciousness.

As I opened my eyes, I saw Kristina sitting by my side. "Are you okay honey?"

My body felt calm, compared to turmoil going in my mind.

"Are you okay sweetie? Do you want to eat something? Let me call the doctor" saying she rushed outside.

Doctor came inside "How are you feeling now?"

"Okay, I guess " I said. He left after checking my vitals.

I nodded at her.

"Do you want to eat anything?"

"No, I'm fine."

"I want to see them Kristina."

"I'm so sorry honey, we had funeral a week back. Doctors are not sure when you will wake up. I'm so sorry dear" she replied.

I looked her in the eye. All I could think was I couldn't say them goodbye for one last time.

"Tomorrow, you are getting discharged. We are taking you home." I looked at the woman in front of me, her face pale without makeup and dark circles underneath her eyes.

The word home brought tears to my eyes.

"Never feel that you are alone Amy. If you want to talk you know I'm always there for you. You were, you are and you always will be my daughter. " she told me.

"I know" I nodded at her.

After reaching the Browns Residence I noticed that Ryan and Sophie decorated the place with balloons and Welcome home banner.

I smiled at them.

I walked into the room and lied on the bed. Ryan and Sophie knocked on the door and entered.

"I'm so glad that you are back. Do you need anything?" Asked Ryan

"No"

"How is your hand? Is it paining?" this time Sophie asked.

"No, but I want to be alone for a while"

Nodding their heads and giving me a hug they went out of the room. I don't feel like talking with anyone.

I laid down on the bed.

After a while Kristina came to my room with Martha.

"Whatever you might need Amy, just ask me or Martha, you know this is also your home"

Martha is a loving lady in her 50s. I know her since childhood. She gives this warmth to everyone around her.

I nodded at her.

"You have to talk Amy, you have to share what you are feeling with people around you, you can talk with me, Ryan or Sophie or anyone else you are comfortable with. Please dear, I can't see you like this drifting away" Kristina said with tears which are threatening to fall down her eyes.

Martha came with my dinner and medicines. But I'm not in a mood to have food. She forcefully fed me some food and after making sure that I took my medicines.

Around midnight, not able to sleep and feeling suffocated in my room. I decided to go out into garden for some fresh air. I sat on a bench lost in my thoughts and without knowing I dozed off to sleep.

I woke up in the morning to see that I'm in my bed tucked under the comforter. I don't remember walking back to bed. I brushed the thoughts aside.

A week passed by, I just want to stay alone. Kristina and Martha force me to have some food and take my medicines. The cast on my left hand is still present. I'm not going to school. Ryan and Sophie try to cheer me but all their efforts went to drain.

There was always this void in me. I'm not able to think straight or respond to other people. I felt myself sucked into never ending darkness. I don't want to talk with anyone. Living day to day has become a hideous task for me.
