MERHAYES - the big "what if"

Unexpected Guests - Part 2

"Lexie?"

...

That's when I instantly fell on the ground.

"Mer. Mer, wake up," I faintly heard as she shook me.

"Lexie," I said with my eyes closed and a smile on my face.

"Mer, Lexie died nine years ago."

"That's not possible. I just saw her," I said as I faintly opened my eyes and see a different figure in front of me. This time she has blue eyes.

"Amelia?" I saw with joy.

We instantly hug and it's obvious that neither one of us want to let go.

But, once we did let go, I noticed that Amelia had a terrible wound.

"Your head," I say.

"I'm fine. We need to help these people," she responds as she gets up and puts a hand out to help me up.

"Amelia, I know what 'I'm fine' means. I basically invented the word," I say as she helps me up.

"But I really am fine. These people are the ones who need help," she says. She sees my faces and knows that I am worried. "It's just a small cut. I'm perfectly okay."

I trusted her... for now.

...

After helping some patients I noticed that Amelia has been taking a lot of breaks. 'I'm just tired' she keeps telling me. 'We've had a long day'. But this time I didn't believe her one bit.

"Amelia you're hurt. Someone needs to take care of you. Let me take care of you."

"I'm fine."
