I release a breathe that I didn't realised I was holding as two men surround me as well as paramedics and firefighters; The two men lift the girl out of my rigid arms and place her on a nearby stretcher, she is immediately rushed into an ambulance. I watch as a man wraps a blanket around me and carefully walks me over to a nearby ambulance telling me that everything's okay; or that it will be at least. I watch as the distant ambulance with the girl scowled with scalded skin drives away, I watch as the piercing siren slowly grows weaker and the flashing lights become lost in the mist circling the area.
I am rapidly surrounded by paramedics when I feel myself lose balance and grip onto the edge of the emergency vehicle suddenly wondering why I was standing in the first place. I remain to stand as three paramedics surround me and start to ask my several questions, about my health and my personal life: What is your name? How are you feeling? Are you okay? Who will pick you up now? Where does it hurt? I try as hard as possible to answer their questions and to try and remember how I feel and who will pick me up, but I can't. My thoughts are mixed with confusion and sadness trying to piece together how I should feel and why, the paramedics gathered around me have started to strangely look at me as if might pass out.
My breath starts to quicken as one of the nurses takes a step forward and touches me on the shoulder, she gives me a sympathetic look but all I feel is cold-hard pity. I feel my head become light as my breath fastens, my hearing zones out and all I see are the moving actions of the nurses around me scrambling around and panicking not knowing what to do. I realise one of my legs have collapsed leaving me clinging onto the ambulance, my hand drops and I can't even try to reach out to grab the vehicle; instead; I let myself fall. I fall to the ground knocking my vision to turn black, I stare into the darkness hoping to see something, but I don't. I'm just left her with my empty thoughts and the rapid pulse of my heart.
