"Oh baby girl." mom said, rubbing circles on the back on my hand with her thumb. "You have to wake up your boys need you."
My boys, does she mean my brothers? Another flashback came back to me. I was on my way to meet Hunter somewhere. Why was I meeting him?
The pain was increasing and the pull into the darkness was becoming too much to fight.
The noise in the room started phasing out except for a beeping noise.
"Baby girl, if you can hear me squeeze my hand." Mom said.
Beep.
I tried to squeeze but I just couldn't.
Beep.
I felt a warm fingers touch my face and gently rub from my temple to my jaw and back again. "CC, please open your bright blue eyes for me baby."
Beep.
"I need you; I can't do this on my own." I heard him sniffle. "He looks just like you. Same little nose, head full of dark curly hair." He sniffled again. "I love you baby."
Then there was a long beep and the blackness finally took over.
Look for part two of their story in
the fall of 2013.
