I yawn as I start to wake up, and shiver a little as I finally feel the cold air. My mom was hovering over me and was telling me to get up. I finally got up still tired. It was Sunday, it was time for church. I got all ready, with a nice pink dress on and my hair up in pigtails. We went to church, sang some songs. It was boring, not saying I don't like god it's just church is boring. There was a weird man though, he was staring at me. Anyway, when I got home I played with some toys and ate breakfast.
Breakfast was good, it was eggs and bacon. The bacon was a little too greasy, but I mean its bacon. When I got up out of my chair the doorbell rang. Our doorbell is quite loud, but it's very pretty. My mom rushed over to the door, and she opened it. There was a very loud creak when she opened it, It hurt my ears. I walked behind my mom, a man was at the door. I recognized this man, it was the man staring at me at church. He spoke in a deep voice "Hello, do you know where I can find-" he stopped talking and looked at me. Mom also looked down, trying to find what he was staring at. Then he smiled "Well, well, well what a sweet looking girl you got on your hands". My mom also smiled, and said: " Why yes we do, Thank you". He nodded, showing he appreciated it. And finish his sentence. He was looking for a girl named Alice. My mom showed him what house he should go to. As he walked away he gave me a weird face, like he did while at church. I thought to myself, maybe JUST maybe he's an angel of the devil? I laughed at that thought. Their something about him that made me suspicious, maybe it was his hunched over back, or how he talked, or maybe the way he stared at me.
Yet even though it was just moring, I took a nap because I was so tired. When I woke just my dad was home. "Lily" I heard him called. I walked down the steps to our kitchen and saw he had made lunch. It was nothing unusual, it was just a PBJ (Peanut Butter Jelly If you didn't know) and some BBQ ( Barbeque ) Chips. He sat a the Island in the middle of our kitchen, he was on a wooden stool. I HATE wooden stools because they hurt my butt, but I sat on one anyways. I asked, "Where is my mom?". He looked down at his food "She will be back, she's at work". I shook my head showing I understand. I started to eat. Once I was done I walked into my room and sat on the floor. I wondered where mom was, Was she okay? Later after playing in my room, my dad yelled my name. When I walked down to the kitchen he was frantically running around grabbing stuff. I asked, " What's wrong?". In a quick, scared tone he said " Mom, she's in the hospital". I staired at dad. He looked at me and saw I was stunned "I'm not going to lie to you, she got hit by a car". I fell to my knees, I put my face into my hands I started to cry. I felt my life get sucked out of me, as if I to was dying. He came over and put his arms around me, "She's not dead, but there's a chance. So lets hurry and pack so we can spent time with her". While In the car my dad got another call. "Hey, Is this Ryan?" said the stranger on the phone, "Yeah, who is this?". "This is Dr. Chase, and I hate to do this over the phone but.. I need to tell you this now. She has only a couple hours at the most to live" the doctor said in a calm tone. My dad hung up, and didn't say a word. I cried, I couldn't stop. We got to the hospital, we rushed in and left all our stuff behind. Dad ran up to the person behind the desk, he asked: " Where is Rose Croat?" She pointed down the hall. We ran into her room. Dad kneeled by mom's bed, crying. I've never seen him cry before. Mom said " I love you guys, I hope you know that. And Lily? Remember I'll always be in your heart.". I nodded, and started to cry as the machine made a long beep noise. Nurses rushed in, but mom said something in dad's ear before she went unconscious. "Stop" he yelled, and all the nurses looked at him. "She doesn't want this, just let her die. She doesn't want to be in pain". The nurses shook there heads, and walked out. Still the beep... My heart was broken.
