The room felt very warm and welcoming, it was as comfortable as home, I mean I never even got the chance of using the bed even when i had one, I was always scared of my dad coming in to hurt me,coming to hurt mum, I didn't want any of us to get hurt anymore.

I walked pass the beautiful mirror and stare,i didn't see my reflection,i was scared, very.

"What,mum" I yelled,turning around as fast as my legs could aid me, how comes, you are alive, tears start to drop. Am so glad you are alive, I press her to me and whaled in her embrace, am so glad to have you back, don't ever leave me mum, promise you will never leave me by myself again. I cuddled into her warmth.

"Mynah"she called out gently, oh my God I miss her soft voice, I miss everything about her, you are here now mother finally we will have the happily ever after, together.

Mynah, she pulled out of our mother-daughter hug,am not leaving, am not going anywhere "her words held assurance of peace back,just that sentence broke every wall I have built and I cried softly, the woman in front of me didn't look any different, it's been years and she still looks prettier than ever, her hair sweetly styled in a fluffy way, fair and beautiful but the beauty in her eyes completely lost. Am not leaving you mynah I have never for once left you,soft tears drop down her cheeks, I have always loved you my baby.

And I won't stop, I will always be with you my darling, she grabbed me tight, I will.she promised. "but you have to stop leaving the way you're, you are hurting to much, mother's not going to have a peaceful rest if you continue like that, I want you to live, live like never before, live big and strong that way, that way I will have peace mynah.

I crumbled on the floor on her thigh,the floor was so cold, my body shaking intensely ," I don't want to live without you, that's not the girl of life I dreamt of, I want you mother"i pulled her intoa hug but she soon shoved me gently away from her, "stand up mynah"she mentioned and I obeyed.
"look put there, the world is beautiful, life is big, you can't survive like this, you need something bigger than life and you know what that is? "

I chewed on my lips,"no".

God, he is bigger than life itself, so baby you are going to live, because you are a conqueror, you will survive my dear, you just have to try, forgive everyone, yes including your father, his so ignorant and such a coward if you want to live, you have to heal on the inside, so let go, let go of every pass hurt, let go, stop blaming yourself for my death. You didn't kill me mynah, I gave my life up, up for to live and I didn't do it for you to live like this I did for you to live and live it we...

So you will walk back to that body lying on that sick bed and fight, fight for your life, fight for who you are,dont live your voice down here anymore, don't shut yourself from the world my baby. Live

"No mum, please, I held on to her leg, I want to stay with you and I want to be with you, don't do this to me"... I cried

The living is not found in the land of the death, one more time am giving my life to you, make me proud and stop loosing yourself, i might not be able to save you again ...she said and walked towards the door...

Mum! Please..... Please don't shut me out again, please don't let leave....

Am not leaving, you are and with that she shut the door, she shut me out again, it felt like just when i was a kid and daddy was hitting her so hard, she will throw me out and shut the door .... She always shut me out..i stayed there like that with my head inbetween my thighs and wept...

Maison's POV

How is she today Peggy? I asked staring at her closely, she looked better and stronger,for the first time am taking a close look at her, she looks like a different person now, after the successful surgery dad transferred her to a better hospital,mum sued the Doctor Who rejected us and over time I have been receiving calls from different hospital offering me a job....

Mum always brings out the good buried in a person...
She's fine and doing much better, we just have to wait for her to wake up,i don't know why she hasn't woken up, she's responding to treatment and at night, she acts as if she wants to move,then later she's all relaxed...

"It's okay dear"i said trying to cheer her up"you don't have to be too worried we will wait a little more,okay?".

She grabbed her phone from the bed where mynah was lying."okay, I should go get something to eat, want to come along? "

"no, am okay, enjoy your meal"i smiled sweetly at her.

I took my seat next to her,she looked at peace and stress less, "hey,young lady, how you doing? "I wasn't hoping for a response,i don't know who this lady is and why she's going through so much but mother told me she was someone that was close to us, and if she really is, I will protect her, I will make sure she's okay....
I rub my palm against hers"mynah you have to wake up dear, you have to fight, don't give up too soon, I didn't give up on you when I had every reason to, I still went on with the surgery, please don't give up on me, wake up! "

*****
Hours passed,i was still in the same position reading a book I found in mothers room, the leading lady by TD Jake's.

"Mynah"i ready do like this book and if studying is one of your hobbies, I think you will have to wake up and join me... It's a whole lot of wisdom written in here, it's is time to take the stage, it's is time to put your life together..... Wake up" I whispered.

I glanced at her with hope filled in my eyes"please".i dropped the book by the side of her legs and cupped her cheeks"awake mynah, awake".

Mynah's pov

I wias still kneeling behind the shut doors, my eyes by this time ached and swollen from crying too hard, I am not leaving this place without you mum, please come back.
I don't want to go back to that cruel world,there is nothing out there for me, please, I cried harder.

"Mynah"i heard my name
Mynah

Awake mynah, awake

It came louder more like a plea than a command, his voice was so gentle yet unfamiliar, he spoke with passion, I don't think I know the voice calling me. Who is that, I questioned?

Yet. No reply.....

Mynah!

While I was doing the surgery on you,I felt so hurt and sorry,I felt so sorry for wasting my life and not believing so much in myself,and when I saw the condition of your heart,that moment I knew everyone has every reason to believe and stay alive, wake up,enjoy every moment,live like forever doesn't exist and stay focused and happy,I said to myself from now on,I will enjoy my life,I will stay with my family and I will stay with God. You inspired me and I want you to wake up so I can say thank you.please mynah wake up.....

Please...
His tone got more deeper and more demanding and just like that I was forced to stand on my feet,I looked behind me at the shut door I didn't want to leave my mum,but who ever it was,was right.it's time to take the stage.

I picked the box my mum gave to me,she said it's my voice and from now I should use it,it was a beautiful emerald necklace I put it on and like sunshine I felt so bright....

"Mr maison,visiting time is over,you should go,I will stay with her,a familiar voice " called out.

"Okay,I had the voice say and left my hand,good night mynah,guess I will see you tomorrow".he mentioned sadly and stood up to leave but I grabbed his hands. that is it am awake,am back,am alive,it is time to fix my life.

"Wait"....
