All that could be heard within the four walls of my room was the dying silence of my sobs that had turned to muffled sniffles.
You are pretty much wondering why i'm crying on a perfect day in the middle of summer well it was exactly seven years that my dad and brother Ryan died on the dreadful July 5th. I sat at the nook of my bed when the thoughts of that day began to replay in my head like it happened yesterday.
*********
It was a few minutes after ten o' clock when my dad and brother left for the store to get some supplies for Tammi, my brothers race car. It was about an hour and a half that they left and the store was a ten minute drive from my house. My mom and I got worried we tried to reach them from our mobiles but each time we called it went to voicemail. My mum turned on the tv and switched over to our local news.
........It appears to be that there has been
a car pile up at the mainland residence and everyone survived at the minute but it some sustained fratile injuries.
The Ford that was at the bottom of the scene had a man in his late forties with a teenager that appears to be his son.
Research has it that they are Rob and Ryan Winters. They are in the ICU as we speak in the Lavenders hospital. Thats it for now we'll be right back after this break.
It was like a knife had just been stabbed into me and the look on my mum's face said the same. We rushed to the car and drove as fast as we could to the hospital. We got there and they led us to the ICU.
We waited for at least four hours before we could get any information. My dad had a broken ribcage and his head had hit the dash board and window a couple times and a glass found its way to in while my brother, was on life support, the airbag came out way to late earning him some scars and when it finally inflated it wrapped his head, sufforcating him till he was put on artificial oxygen. I was pretty young but I understood what was going on. I knew my mom wasn't strong enough so I had to man up so I could comfort my mother. After that no one told us anything , we waited through the night but still nothing so I spoke up. "Ma, what's going to happen to Dad and Ryan?" I could see that it hurt her so much to even think about it. "Sweetie, honestly I have no idea but we have to be strong for them and right now all we cab do is hope that they're alright, okay?" She said and I replied with a nod. Right on cue a man dressed in a lab coat came to us and asked to have a word with my mum, being the nosy little girl that I was, I followed them but couldn't hear thier discussion so I opened the door a bit to hear their discussion
"Well Mrs. Winters, I'm sorry, but we tried all we could....none of them could make it, your husbands case was too severe and there was nothing we could do ...your son had a string of shock and because of his brain condition ,it affected him more than it was supposed to. ..accept my condolences. ..if you would excuse me..."
From the door I was already in tears..I was heartbroken..I was torn...but I had to be strong...I hoped for better...I dreamt for it...
