Evangeline was delirious. She has a high fever and the lower part of her body was aching with excruciating pain. She saw her kids come into her room followed by her mother who shouts her name but she was deaf enough to hear anything. All she could think about was the terrible pain she was at. She saw the kids crying and calling her name but she couldn't hear them. She stretched her arms to hold them but doing so means another excruciating pain. All she did was clutched her lower abdomen where she felt more pain.
The ambulance came and with double-time, paramedics did the first aid to resuscitate a dying mother. They could see how this young woman, being loved by these people surrounding her. They called out her name gently and passionately, saying that she has to open her eyes for them. That she has to fight for them. One of the medics tilted her head just to stop her tears. The woman was very weak. She has a very low chance of surviving if she would not fight for her life. The medic looked at the young boy beside the girl, as she presumed to be the eldest. The little boy was also crying but he kept on looking at his sisters as if crying was the right thing to do at that moment, but was confused with what was happening with his mother.
Sobbing turned to scream as the medics carried Evangeline's body on the stretcher. They were making their way towards the ambulance when the eldest child clutched one of the medics' arms.
"Can we come with her?" Emery said. She held her two siblings with one hand and the older woman came behind them.
"Em, you stay here in the house together with your siblings. Linda will watch over you when I'm still at the hospital." Veronica said to Emery. It took a long moment of having this courage to stay calm. She has to for her grandchildren.
"Please Lola, We have to come too. We can't just wait in here while our Mama goes to the hospital." Emery pleaded. Tears were running down her cheeks.
"Please Lola let us come.." Ernestine begged as well. Her cheeks too were dumped with tears. She still looked so cute with her dumped bangs.
"But the hospital is not good for children who are not sick. Please listen to me kids. Help me pray that your Mama is going to recover soon."
"We need to get going, Ma'am." Says one of the medics. There was finality in his voice. They have to save the woman on the stretcher and family drama was the least of his concern.
Emery just bowed her head and tightened her grip on her siblings. She gave her grandmother a gentle nod. The driver of the ambulance punched the horn hard to give a warning to the swamp of people surrounding them that they needed the way to be cleared. The people immediately gave way and watched as the ambulance disappeared from their sights.
She gently opened her eyes. She saw the blinding lights that hurt her eyes and she closed them again. She just woke up from a slumber. Evangeline opened her eyes again and blinked for how many times as she could, just to manage her adjustment to the surroundings. She gently looked down and saw that woman sobbing with her hands covering her face. She was wearing a hospital gown. She certainly knew she knew the crying woman but she still has to gain back her momentum. She was still floating in the air and she waved her two hands upside down to make her move to go to the bottom. The crying woman was still there, not even having the slightest idea that she was also there. When her feet touched the ground or whatever it was because she felt it cold to her feet, she made her way towards the crying woman.
She was about to tap her on the back when a memory flashed into her thoughts. It was the scene where Evangeline was attended by the medics in her home. She took a step back. She now knew this woman. It was Evangeline. A sense of compassion came through her. Evangeline has a good heart who only wanted the best for her family. A pure heart which she resided and dwelled for over a thousand years. When her past lives died, she was not awoken. But this time, she did wake up. This only means that war was about to happen. A war whom she predicted and prevented. What has happened? Why of all these years is gonna happen now? Evangeline has three kids and as being the other her she has to take care of them as well. She has to convince Evangeline to take her before they find her.
