Silence

After I had felt myself disappear from reality, I felt something cold hit my face.

This caused me to sit up; wiping my eyes from whatever had been splashed onto my face.

Once I had come to my senses, I saw that 4 vehicles were still burning.

I could see someone's legs beside mine, but I didn't know whose they were.

It was then, that I realized that I couldn't feel much.

I started to worry; my breaths coming in short pants as I tried to figure out what had happened.

"Hey, hey, calm down. It's just us. You're ok" someone wrapped their arms around my head and shoulders, turning my head to that it rested against their heart.

I tried listening to their heat beat, but I was still stuck in my panic.

Why couldn't I feel anything?

"Shh, Shh, your alright. Help is on the way" the voice said again.

Why was help on the way?

"Ben, what do I do? She's not calming down" the person who was holding me, questioned someone else that I didn't know where they were.

What is going on?

"I can't breathe" I croaked out, my chest heaving as I tried to get some sort of air into my lungs, but nothing was working as my mind was fogging with thoughts.

"Shh, yes you can. It's just me and ben, girasol. You can breathe" the person whispered, as they started slowly rocking me back and forth, as they ran their hand through my hair.

"Where is osito de peluche? Where is he?" I questioned, my panic rising.

(Translation: teddy)

"There coming" was the response that I didn't want.

I needed to know that they were here.

I wanted to be with him.

I needed him.

"Girasol, calm down. We are alright" that's when I eventually came to my senses.

The person holding me was Raf.

But I still couldn't breathe.

It was then, that I felt my body go limp and eyes fluttered shut.

It was over.
