A Trip to Heaven

Chapter 3

"Hello Ashely." I awoke to a strange voice . My eyes opened to find a women with dirty blonde hair and dressed in a white doctors coat, "I'm Sarah," she said smiling, "I'm going to be your doctor until we can let you free out of the hospital. I stared at her confused. "Sweetheart do you know what happened last night?" I looked down at my body to find cuts on my left arm and a bandage around my forehead.

"Kind of," I replied confused.

"You and your friend Jack had gotten into a pretty serious car accident. Luckily the truck driver you crashed into was drunk driving and was driving on the wrong side of the street so you won't face any charges." Sarah kept talking but my mind escaped to another place.

"Jack," I thought. Last night in the ambulance popes into my head and how scared I was that he wasn't going to be ok, but he had to be ok. "Where's Jack?" I blurted out in the middle of her sentence. She stared at me nervously slowly opening her mouth trying to figure out what to say. "He's ok right?" My eyes began feeling watery and a tear now coming down my bruised face. Her eyes started tearing up as well. "He had to be ok!" I demanded, "Tell me he's ok!" She stood there sniffling and had a tear or two going down her face. Sarah then started to walk out of the room shaking her head without saying a word. "He has to be ok! Jack is ok!" I yell praying to god nothing happened to him.

I laid there in the hospital bed for about 10 mins thinking, "What if e wasn't ok?-who would I grow old with?-who would I love?-who would I have my kids with?-Jack is the only one i'd do all this with-he's the love of my life!"

I was taken away from my thoughts when 3 doctors came in. One of them was Sarah and the other two were male doctors, one with blonde hair and the other was brunette. "Hi Ashely these are some friends of mine, Dave," she pointed to the brunette, "And Steve," Sarah then pointed to the blond, "They have something to tell you. She then walked out of the room shutting the door leading out into the busy white hallway. Both doctors pulled up chairs to my bed.

"Hi Ms. Ashley," Steve said as he grabbed my right hand, "We need to tell you about our boyfriend Jack." I stared at Steve with hope gleaming in my eyes.

"Please tell me he's gonna be ok," I thought.

"He past away right when we got to the hospital." I felt my heart break right in that split second. My mouth opened and tears fell down my face, but he continued, "The truck hit your vehicle on the right side where Jack was sitting. This is why you are still here." He paused for a bit then shook his head saying, "I'm very sorry for your loss." I stared at Steve with my mouth open wondering what in gods name to say. I was empty.

I then thought, "I should have let him drive." There was no reason he had to die! It should have been me! I've never cried so loud and hard before. This couldn't be happening!

"Jack has to be ok!" I screamed. I became in denial. I couldn't believe that the love of my life was gone, just like that! I never got to tell him I loved him too last night in the ambulance, I'll never be able to forgive myself. I should have never let that doctor split our hands apart. Maybe Jack would have still been here, and I should have never thrown my body under the steering wheel. I thought I saw not efficient but that surely wasn't the case. Why did I even want to drive? I wish I could just go back and change everything. Why couldn't it just be that simple? But life want simple, you could make one mistake and your life could change forever. it want fair, but life wasn't fair either. I feel as if all the bad things happen to good people and all the good things happen to bad people. But why is that? Why did Jack die and the drunk driver live? Nothing could be processed in my brain, not when Jack was gone. He was the reason I got up in the morning, he was the reason I told myself to keep going no matter how hard life got, and he was the reason I'm still alive today. He saved me. Jack was my superhero and the villain had won this battle. And in this case, the villain was life itself..
