"Hurry up and get him to the hospital, QUICK!" a woman yelled. My blurry vision wouldn't let me get a grasp idea of what was going on. I was being... carried.
"Wh...where the hell am I?" I questioned the lady.
"Shut up! You need to lay down and don't put any effort. You have been injured very badly and are being taken to a hospital near Zopok Village."
"Damn th... this hurts." I spoke softly.
"I already said to shut up, dammit. Can't you listen for once?" She seemed to be very mad. I don't remember what even happened. I couldn't move, I could barley even speak. I decided to listen and do no effort whatsoever. I'm bleeding badly, it won't stop. There is a storm, lots of rain pouring down making it hard to see where we are going. I felt my soul leaving me little by little.
"Hang in there Cornelio, I can't afford losing you right now!" She exclaimed.
How does she even know my name? Wait... That voice, I recognize it. My vision may be horrible but that was my dear Angela.
"I'm not gonna make it... I am dying... just... LET ME DIE!" I exclaim to her.
"After all your bullshit I had to put up with, all the battles, EVEN THE COOKING! Your dumbass really expects me to let you rot to death?!" She asked me while trying not to cry.
"I'm sorry..." I said.
I won't make it. I can feel my soul trying to carve its way out my body. It's my time... I can accept this was my fate ever since... the incident.I feel doors opening, we must be at the hospital in the outside of Zopok. Noises everywhere. I can't see anymore, I can't hear clearly as well.
"Please find him a bed, a room, SOMETHING!" I could hear Angela voice still. She was stressed, everything was moving quickly. Then suddenly, everything was slow. Everything was fading out. There was no more sound. Nothing left to see. The last I heard was Angela crying out "I love you. Please don't leave... I need you"In the end, I lived a good life.
Then suddenly I saw a flare in the distance.
