1:00amEmily POV
"Kevin"
"Kevin,honey where are you?".
I walked further into the woods praying that he is there somewhere safe and sound. My flashlight wont last for long ,screw it. I'll still search for my child no matter what.
"Kevin, can you hear me?"
"Kevin,please tell me you're here".
Tears spill through my face like a river of endless agony. Its been almost 2 hours now and I still cant find him. I don't even know which way I'm going, all I can see is an endless path of trees. Please let my baby be okay, god.
"Keevvviinnnnn".
I heard distant calls. Must be Shawn and Amanda. I need to find my son before they do. But that's when my flashlight dimmed out. Seriously, it had to go off now when I'm barely clinging onto the hope of finding my son. And before I knew it, I tripped onto a rock and rolled down into a pit. Pain surged through my head and back. I could feel blood oozing down my face but I couldn't care less because that's when I heard a sobbing around the corner of some bushes.. I got up with all my strength that's left behind.
"Kevin, baby is that you?".
When I moved a little closer towards the bushes , I saw him there, cuddled like a fetus, scared and shivering. But before I could hug and comfort him, I was loosing my consciousness. He was calling out for me but I couldn't walk any further. The pain was unbearable and my vision had failed me. All I could say was
"Don't worry baby. Mama is here. You're safe now".
But he never responded and that's the last thing I remember.
