After some minutes she relaxed and she was so tired she fall asleep

That's good...

Everyone has gone out, mostly because the space was too small for everyone to fit, but also to give her some space,  and in the cockpit with Natalie were only Margie, Emily, Faith and me

"Caroline?" Margie whispered and I looked at her

"It's bad isn't it?" She asked with a trembling voice

"What? I didn't say it was-"

"I know you didn't but how could you say that in front of her, or anyone in particular... I know you and you're not like that... I mean your moto is that hope dies lastly or something like that, anyway" she interrupted me

"Good or bad you would have acted the same" she said

"So I'm asking you... it's not good, is it?" She asked

"Margie ... I can't know for sure" I am not my mum...

"You are good at hiding your emotions... but I know you long enough to be able to read you..." she said and left out a sob

"Margie, I-I'm not a doctor... I can't be sure for anything, but I know and I promise you to fight till there is nothing else for me to do" I said and she nodded

"Thank you..." She smiled

"I'll just go outside for a minute and be right back ok?" I said and opened the door

"Oh and Car" Margie exclaimed right before I step out of the room

"Yeah?" I asked

"You are better any than your doctor, you are our friend" she said and I smiled

"Thank you..." I nodded and left the room

"Caroline you ok?" Joshua asked me when I closed the door

"Yes I'm fine, just tired, I think" I answered

"You should go and rest for a little while" he said

"No no, it's ok... I can stay awake for a little more" I gave him a weak smile

"Car, I'm not asking you. You were awaken in the middle of the night, you have to go and rest. No one is gonna misunderstood you or anything.. you are humam too" He said and I nodded

"You're right... I'll just go and take a nap... but please promise me that whatever happens you are gonna wake me up immediately" I said

"You have my word now go"

"Copy that" I smiled and went to my bed

The sun had risen... I didn't know it was already morning... they were a few that they were sleeping and the rest were outside eating or just... talking

I lay down and closed my eyes.
I knew I couldn't sleep... first of all because of the million things going on in my mind and second, because I knew that the second I'll close my eyes the nightmares will come to haunt me...

So I just closed my eyes and tried to think of a way to save Natalie

Her situation is very serious

My mum, who is one of the best doctors in our city, doesn't always find a way. I mean it's impossible

I've seen her saving people from situations like Natalie's... but I've seen her failing too... she tried of course but she couldn't... she is not God and neither am I...

So how can they expect me with a click of my fingers to just save her? Without all the machinery that I need.. of course I'm gonna do anything in my power but I'm not expecting much and neither should they

I have hope, the current place we live in requires to have  hope and I do have it, as Margie said earlier, but I know hope isn't gonna fix anything...

We have to fight, we have to work hard... but how can we when two weeks passed and one person is already in bed bitten by something unknown with venom running in her system?

"Caroline... heyy earth to Caroline" someone almost yelled and I opened my eyes quickly

"What happened?" I asked surprised

"Caroline wow... relax... it's just me" Oliver said

"What happened what are you doing here..." I asked after some seconds

"You were just so deep in your thoughts, I thought you were gonna explode or something" he chuckled and I rolled my eyes

"What were you thinking anyway" He asked

"Nothing... just what to do with Natalie and such"

"Car... you will come up with something. You have it in your blood to save people... I mean you being a doctor, it's kind of a family thing, like a tradition?!" I smiled at his attempt to make a joke

"Thank you Oliver really...that kinda helped me"

"Yet you're still doubting yourself" he smirked

"It's just..." I sighed

"What?" He asked

"Everyone expects me to find a way to cure Natalie like it's something I do everyday, but I'm... I'm a seventeen years old girl trapped in... this place, which is in the middle of nowhere, literally, and I can't do it... I can't live up to anyone's expectations" I said and a tear fell

Oliver was looking at me with a sad expression not knowing what to say... but it's ok... I wasn't expecting him to say anything... I turned my head and looked at the stars through my window

For the first time in my life.... I wish I was them...
