Demi Part 8

Mila's POV.
The last thing I remember, I was singing on stage. It was amazing. I was breaking out of my shell. I was believing in myself. Aber was right next to me singing with such passion, I truly wondered if she struggles with the same things I do. Then I heard this.... This rumbling. Then I fell. I was thrown off stage, as the whole coliseum was shaking. Shaking HARD. I screamed for Aber, but my voice was lost in the noise of all the other screams. Then everything went black. When I woke up, I was in a hospital room. I don't know where Aber or Demi are, but I hope they're ok. I know they're probably just a couple rooms down. Knowing that Aber is most likely safe comforts me,and I fall asleep and sleep for hours. I wake up about 6 hours later and I'm starving. I press the buzzer to call the nurse, and she takes my order to go get me food. As soon as she leaves, a doctor walks in. "Miss Caldwell. Demi Lovato has been found. However we are not sure if she will make it." I feel my throat tighten, the tears are going to come at any second. Then he continues. "And with my deepest regrets, I must inform you that your sister, Aber Caldwell did not make it out alive. She was killed instantly when the building collapsed." Immediately any threat of tears goes away. I go numb. Completely numb. Everything becomes a blur. After the doctor leaves, the nurse comes back with food. She tries to get my attention, but eventually gave up and left. I was zoned out. I was drowning in a sea of blackness. My one joy in this world is gone. This could not get any worse. Why couldn't it have been me? I'm the one that wanted to die. Aber was popular and happy. Why her?
* 1 WEEK LATER*
It's been a week since I've gotten here. When my parents found out Aber died, they stopped coming to see me. Aber was their pride and joy, and she was dead. The last time I saw them, they were leaving, and my dad turned around and said to me. "You worthless piece of crap. Why are you the one alive?" I know I should be hurt, and I think I am, but all I feel is numbness. I've heard some of the nurses talking about Demi, so I go to her room and find her awake. When she sees me she immediately reaches for me and I go into her arms hugging her. Our sobs fill the empty silence of the room. She holds me tight, and I hold her tighter. We stay like this for hours.
