Prologue
“One with a pulse! We need her out now!”
The urgency in the word ‘now’ is what brought me out of my
daze. Shock. Shock is what they call it, when something is too much for your
brain to handle… It’s trying to feel so much that you don’t feel at all. The
last thing I saw was the truck run the red light and now all I see is darkness.
I think to myself that this must be some sick joke, because I can’t die right
now. I’ve barely even had the chance to understand
this world yet. Like what true happiness is or love or if God even exists… but
I guess I know my answer now because if he did, this wouldn’t be true. A life
shouldn’t be handed out only to be taken away so soon, today is the day I
graduated highschool. I was never born into a family where we had the
typical family nights or family vacations; both parents surgeons and
unfortunately a persons’ dying heart doesn’t wait for anything or anyone. We
came together when we had the chance and that had been enough for me at the
time, but its not anymore. I still need my parents; I need their guidance and
love, I need their wisdom. There’s a lot I still haven’t learned, but I guess there
is a few things I do know as of right now; “one with a pulse"? There were 3 of us. The putrid smell of burning rubber
is going to make me vomit and-
“Stay with me! Sweetheart what’s your name?” an EMT broke
through the fog. –And my name is Autumn, the miracle that made it through.
