Tragedy
Dara ChroniclesSandara's POV
My uncle didn't say anything when he saw me. He just let me on my own which I appreciated. For someone who's used to being alone, he really knows how to make people around him comfortable.
Next day, in the car on the way back he began asking things - which I didn't mind.
"Did you visit your old friends?" he asked.
"Yes... but they're all busy." I lied.
"Everything will be better." He said suddenly.
"Yes uncle..." I answered not looking at him but out the window. I closed my eyes. That's why I didn't see anything - when a truck hit our car on my uncles side. I was startled, i felt the car shook and spin. I covered my face - but the impact is so strong I felt my head hit my side window. Everything stopped. I felt myself hanging upside down, felt something trickling down my face.
"Uncle..." I whispered. I turned my face and looked at the driver's side. My uncle was looking at me, blood coming out of his mouth and some from his head wounds.
"Everything will... be okay..." He said before slumping unconscious.
I felt my vision blurred and then I also lost consciousness.
------------------------------------------------
I feel I'm lying somewhere soft. Am I dead? Am I in heaven?
I slowly openned my eyes. The light hurts... I feel so tired.
I closed my eyes and felt myself drifting off.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When I woke up again it's dark. Pain started all throughout my body.
"Ahhh...." I moaned. My head hurts worse than the others... i raised a hand to it and felt bandages.
"Everything is just a dream." I thought to myself. " Woo just saved me. We didn't go back home," I continued in my head, but my tears are falling down now. "It must be a dream... if not, if not... my uncle..." I sobbed harder.
I heard someone enter the room - a nurse.
"Omo, you're awake..." she said and run back out. I wiped my tears away. Moments later, the nurse came back with someone.
"Hi, I'm Dr. Jung Il woo. How are you feeling?" he said as he shined a penlight on my eyes.
"It hurts... all over." I whispered. He took his stethoscope and asked me to breathe in and out.
"Are you feeling dizzy? sleepy?" he asked. I shook my head, giving me headache in the process.
"Head hurts..." I answered.
"Miss Jenny will be asking you some questions later, okay? But right now, is there anyone we can contact... family members? parents?" he asked softly.
"Where's my uncle?" I asked as I wiped my tears again, i didn't realize I'm starting to cry again. Dr. Jung and the nurse looked at each other.
"What's your name?" He asked kindly.
"Park, Sandara..." I answered.
"Sandara... the man you are with... I'm sorry to tell you but he passed away." I closed my eyes and felt tears continuously fall. I bit my trembling lip, wanting to curl in a ball and hug myself. "That's why we are asking if there's anyone else we can contact for you." I felt myself shook trying to control my emotions.
"No..." I answered softly."... there's no one else." I said much louder. "It's just him and me." I turned my back on them and although my body hurts, i pulled my legs up and hugged myself (Fetal position). "I'm all alone now..." I whispered, and the feeling I tried to control burst out; I cried for my uncle , cried for my parents; cried for me.
"Miss Jenny will stay with you for a while. If you need anything else, just tell her." he said.
I didn't answer but continued crying.
What am I to do now? How will I go on from here?
