Karina POV
5 November 2013
“Good afternoon, how may i help you Mrs Mom?” Using my weird tone to answer the phone always get the best results. “Your...Your...d...da....dad...dad...got into...a FREAKING CAR ACCIDENT!!!!” My mom screamed into the phone hysterically. My poor dad...or should i say a madly insane dad that had a number 1 famous rule of having no boyfriends until i was 40.Then again, he was my dad.
“ Wait what? Are you kidding me? Where are you? Don’t kill yourself! I’m coming!” An avalanche of questions tumbled out in torrents. “H-he is i-in Lit-little lamb hospi-hospital.”
My mom hiccuped through cries. “I’M COMING!” I hollered into the damn phone. Leaving my best friend since we were in nappies at the mall, to be more precise, VICTORIA FREAKING SECRET, since she wanted new lacy bras and undies, for God knows why.
I ran out of the mall and into the carpark. My pink mini cooper was easy to spot from afar. No time to lose. Within seconds, i was speeding down the road. If a damned police officer gives me a speeding ticket, i would like literally tear his head of him. 2 words kept echoing in my mind. “Dad’s dying” it was a race of time where i would reach there on time or having to see dad already dead.
I burst into the Little Lamb hospital doors. The receptionist seemed so bloody calm, painting her fingernails, while i on the other hand… “ WHERE THE FREAKING SHIT IS MY DAD?” “Erm. Who’s your dad?”The receptionist probably thought i was dumb or what. “Bobby James Rose” “ Emergency operating room, level 2 near ICU” FREAK. EMERGENCY. OPERATING. ICU. Darn it seems pretty bad. My legs sprinted at the fastest speed it ever did. Nothing could happen to you, Dad. i prayed for the best.
“MOM!” She was bent towards the floor. Tears were split everywhere. Her face was white. “Mom, how’s Dad?” I asked gently, which just happened to be the opposite of my character. She choked, mumbling incoherently. How serious was his injuries, i didn’t know. What happened, i didn’t know either.
The doors of the opening room swung open. A doctor and a few nurses rushed out. Mom and I dashed toward them. “ How’s my husband?” Mom demanded as if her whole life depended on it. “ I’m so sorry. His injuries were too severe. We couldn’t save him. We already tried our utmost best”
Dad died. Mom was a widow. I no longer had a father. Mom just fainted. I just lost 1 parent, i couldn’t lose another.
The nurses and doctor were calm when transferring mom on a stretcher. It was as though they expected it to happen. I was lost. Do I even have the courage to see Dad for the last time and bade him goodbye? Or should i wait for mom?
“Hey, you might wanna come with your mom too. You seem in a state of shock.” A kind nurse smiled at me and advised me. I nodded and followed my mom. The world seemed so dull now. Nothing was right.
Mom’s face was so pale, I thought it was a white sheet. The doctor motioned to me. I walked towards him, not knowing what kind of news i would receive this time. “ Hi, i’m Doctor Bell and i would be your mom’s doctor.” She smiled reassuringly. “Don’t worry too much about her, its just a little shock but please make sure she eats or she might harm the baby.” “ What baby?” I asked, a look of pure shock crossing my face a second time that day. What a crappy day. “ Oh, you didn’t know? Congrats. You're gonna be a big sister.”
Two shocks in one day. One parent dead, another pregnant. Isn’t life wonderful?
