Among the Stars (Shidge AU) [Book 2]

Chapter Thirty-Eight

Katie was laying down on the bed as she slowed her crying. Eventually, the other nurses left, leaving the first one still there. She took a deep breath in and then released it. She was much more calmer now.

Soon the the blonde haired lady from earlier come in. "Are they comming? My family?" Katie asked a little worried.

"Katie, you have to understand." She spoke softly. "There's a family comming that we suspect is your family. They may not be it."

Katie looked down worried. What if they weren't her family? What if she'll never find her family? What if the angel was lying?

"But if you are their missing family member, let me tell you," The lady added with a smile. "They will be the happiest family on Earth."

Katie looked back up at her. "Really?"

She nodded with a smile. "Though don't worry, I'm sure you're it."

About ten minutes passed by as Katie was going all the more impatient. She wanted them to come faster. What was taking them so long?

She looked at the window as she was able to see the sky. It was so bright and blue. She saw whispy cloud as they weaved themselves throughout the endless blue canvas. She saw small white bird fly across the sky in groups as if they were all traveling somewhere together. She saw some trees in the distance as they stood sturdy in the ground. Their green leaves showed vibrantly as they blocked the sun to provide shade for the animals and humans underneath them. It was beautiful as it calmed her down from her worries.

She then was brought out of her trance as she heard the door click. She immediately looked at the door as it slowly opened. Who was comming in? She then heard a simple, "Hello?" It sounded like a boy. He didn't sound too old, maybe around her age. She saw a boy walk in as he gasped when he saw her.

Immediately, she had a flashback. She was on a roof as she saw this boy with her. He looked younger as they were looking at the stars. She then saw a familiar constalation as she smiled and said, "Hey, Matt. It's Leo the Lion!"

She knew without a doubt, this was her brother. He ran to her as he immediately hugged her. Tears were streaming down his face as he held onto her tightly. "I'm so sorry..." He sobbed. She noticed he started to shake slightly.

She felt like she was going to cry. "...Matt?" She asked, mostly to confirm she had his name right. He looked up at her. She smiled gently as she whiped his tears. "Why are you crying?"

She then saw two other people walk in. A man and a woman. The man, she recognized as her father from the memory. They looked so surprised as they were about to cry.

She then remembered she lady, she was sitting at a table as she seemed so happy. She sighed as she said, "I don't what I would do if I lost you all forever."

Katie looked at her with a curious face, but then it turned into a smile. "Don't worry mom. I wouldn't leave forever. I will always come back, no matter what." She then got out of her chair as she hugged her.

"I know sweetie." She sighed as she embraced her. "I know."

She was her mother! She had to be! This was her family! No one could tell her other wise! This had to be her family! It just felt right...

"Oh Katie..." Her mother smiled as she looked like she was going to cry.

"Mom... Dad..." Katie smiled as she looked at them. It felt amazing to say that. To know of assurity that this was your family despite loosing your memory... it was amazing. She felt like she belonged.

"You're safe..." Her father muttered.

That's when another boy hesitantly walked in. She looked at him for a bit. He looked much older than Matt, and had jet black hair. He didn't look like he was apart of her family, and upon that nothing was clicking. No memory... No nothing... He waved at her and said, "Hello." He had a slight smile on his face. He seemed like he knew her but she couldn't seem to put a name to his face. She tilted her head as she studied him, trying to get something to click.

"Do I know you?"
