I heard whispers.
It would be like little two-second whispers every couple of minutes. I couldn't hear what they were saying, I couldn't control anything all I knew was that there were voices. Honestly, I didn't know how much time they were apart. It's like every time they would happen I would wake up from sleep but I couldn't open my eyes. After a couple of seconds of hearing the voices, I would go back to sleep.
So when my eyes finally opened, I didn't know exactly what I was looking at. I was dumbfounded when my eyes slowly opened. I saw a bright light on the ceiling, I heard beeping and I felt needles and straps on my skin.
My eyes drifted next to me and then I saw him. The brown eyes wide and bright as he sat up, looking at me. Then I noticed his hand that was brushing my cheek. "Ev," I tried to smile. My throat hurt badly and so did my torso.
My body felt bruised and used. My muscles felt sore and my mind couldn't stop replaying what happened the last time my eyes were open.
We lost each other.
Yet here we are.
"Goddess," Evander mumbled, leaning down to press a lingering kiss on my forehead. The door then burst open, taking our attention.
The doctor, wearing a coat that I would usually be wearing, seemed very happy to see us both awake. He almost seemed shocked, like he didn't expect us to be.
"I must commend you both, you are one strong pair to survive everything that you did. With the fire, bullets, and stabs..." The doctor trailed off, stepping into the room and grabbing the clipboard off the wall.
My brows furrowed at the fire part. I wasn't aware there was a fire. Yet I'm not surprised since Jessie and Evander had burnt marks last time.
"Um...what happened? I thought we," I trailed off, not wanting to say the words. We survived and I was ecstatic but I had a hard time showing it. I was still so confused. The doctor raised his eyebrow," died? I guess you should thank Chansler for getting you to the hospital so quickly. We got the bullets out of your bodies quickly when your heart started beating again even though we almost lost you, Rieka, we saved you," the doctor proudly explained.
Evander gripped my hand tightly. The doctor frowned the more he looked at me. "I'm sorry to say it, Rieka but the baby didn't make it," he softly said.
I felt like my heart dropped.
A ringing in my ear became louder and louder. "Baby? What do you mean?" I asked.
"I figured you didn't know since it was only a day or two developed, Rieka you were pregnant," the doctor fully explained.
His grip on my hand tightened but it felt like I was slipping away. I was on birth control, how did this happen? Why did my child have to die?
