Cyn:*turning her head quickly to see her eyes rolling back* NOO

Erica jumped up from the seat and picked up her daughter who was turning blue. Erica elevated her mouth head and mouth, seeing her tongue swollen and rash on her body. Erica picked her up and shouted for cyn and Riley to follow her. She ran through the crowd to the car.  Once she got it she laid jaila on the seat and grabbed her medical bag. She got the epipen and stuck it in Jaila thigh.

Cyn: babe?*breathing hard with tears running down her face which matched Riley's.

Erica: stay with her.Riley come seat in front*starting the car and strapping in Riley before peeling off and heading to the hospital. Erica called the ambulance on her phone to meet her on her way.

Cyn: Erica I can't feel her pulse anymore.*paniky*

Erica: fuck *slamming her hands on the wheel while pressing  gas harder, weaving through traffic.

Riley: hurry please *crying*

Erica: IM TRYING

Cyn: Erica hurry

Riley: look the ambulance.*pointing out the window*

Erica slammed the brakes hard, sending everyone forward at bit. She jumped out of the driver seat and pulled open the back door, lifting jaila and running like a track star towards the ambulance.The paramedics spotted her and stopped the bus opening the back door. Erica handed Jaila to them while she jumped up.

Erica: cyn meet us at the hospital.

Cyn: OK,*starting the car*

Erica started an iv line into her daughter arm with epinephrine. An oxygen tube was inserted into her nose to help with the breathing. Her pulse was very faint but it was there. Soon the ambulance came to a halt and jaila was wheeled into a private room where a pediatrician was paged.  Cyn and Riley arrived frantic, a senior nurse showed them into the waiting room where Jaila was being checked, cyn paced the hallway silently praying while Riley sat crying. After half an hour a Dr and two nurses walked out and told cyn should go in. Riley jumped out from the chair and ran towards the door. Cyn pushed the door open gasping at the amount of machines her daughter was hooked up too. Erica stood looking out the window, frozen like a statue.

Erica: she's went into shock twice. Almost coded on us. *walking out the door*

Cyn: Erica, wait. Where you going?

Erica: I need some air, stay with her*walking out the emergency room.

Cyn called Erica mom and her family telling them that Jaila in the hospital. She called Riley parents to inform them what happen. They told her that Riley could stay until Jaila got up because they knew that she wouldn't want to come home until she knew Jaila was OK. Riley spoke to her mom telling her that she was OK, she was scared that Jaila was going to die. Explaining all the machines that was in the room, but she going to be brave cause Jaila wouldn't want her to be scared. Erica mom arrived and cyn left to find Erica, she asked around but no one seen her.cyn checked Erica office but it was completely dark, she switched on the light and was shocked to see Erica sitting on the floor in a crumpled mess with her knuckles bleeding and a hole in the wall.

Cyn; babe?*walking towards Erica*

Erica: no, stop, its my fault.

Cyn: no Erica, you not blaming yourself for this.

Erica: if i didn't discharge her before she got screen for allergies we would have known that peanuts is her allergy. 

Cyn: Erica, we left because it wasn't safe, our one day old baby was stolen. You did what was right at the time.
