Kelly's POV
I gasped for air, opening my eyes for what seemed like the first time. I stared up at the ceiling, not even bothering to move. I couldn't remember much from the night before, but I know there was an accident.
"She's awake" I heard someone say. I heard a lot of whispering in the background.
"She's awake?" someone else spoke. I'm guessing they nodded as their response cause nothing else was said. I heard footsteps making a quick exit.
I sat up, seeing that I was in a hospital bed. I met eyes with a girl my age. I knew this girl. She didn't say anything, she just stared. I stared right back. Her curly blonde hair fell down her face, she slowly used her hand to brush it back. She took that as an opportunity to take her eyes off of me.
My eyes wondered around the room, trying to find her. Where is she? I felt like I couldn't breathe, unknowingly I started panicking. A nurse and a familiar looking woman came rushing towards me.
"Kelly breathe baby, it's okay" the woman said rubbing my back reassuringly to calm me down. Once I was completely calm she sat down on the foot on the bed. I asked the question that I was unprepared to hear.
"Where's my mama?" I spoke so low that I could barely hear me.
She grabbed ahold of my hands. My eyes already started to tear up, preparing my heart for deep down what I already knew. She was gone.
"Do you remember me?" She asked, I slowly nodded. I recognized her now. Tina Knowles.
This was one of my mom and pops old college friend. We all used to take summer vacations together with her and her two daughters. I haven't seen them since my dad got recruited. He's been off at war for a while now.
She just explained to me how she was my God parent and promised to take care of me if something was to ever happen to my parents.
"You'll be staying with us down in Texas" she told me, speaking as gently as possible. "Beyoncé, come here" her mother spoke sternly.
She walked up to my bedside. The older woman nudged her before she finally said something. "I'm sorry for your loss, Kelly" she wrapped her arms around me, I closed my eyes and buried my head in her chest. She held me tighter as I fought for my tears to stay inside. "It's gonna be okay" she whispered.
