“Janet. Wake up, Janet. Pls talk to me. “
Sam said with his hands on both sides of Janet’s face trying to help her regain her consciousness. Janet was gasping through her mouth as she tried to force herself up. The frantic note in her ex husband’s voice brought life back into her… what happened?
At the sight of her ex husband from the car seat right above her blood dripping down his arm, it all came rushing back. The white truck which came out of nowhere to hit their suv and sent it tumbling, I just called for help. Help’s coming, Sam said as he helped Janet undo her seat belt. Hurt? She tried to ask him, but the words came out a grunt. I am okay he said, though even in the dim light she could see that he was bleeding,blood dripping onto her cloth which felt soaked already…neither Janet nor Sam liked admitting they were sick or injured, they had always refused to give into what they tagged as “weakness”. They were like strangers who knew each other too well,they sat quietly as the sound of ambulance echoed from distance.
