It Was A Lie When They Smiled And Said You Won't Feel A Thing

Chapter 36: THIS IS MY LAST RESORT!

Frank came running in about a minute or two later. “What happened?!” he said, filled with both anger and concern. I looked straight at him. I tried long, and hard to get some sort of words out. I kept thinking say something, anything! but nothing came out. I kept staring straight at Frank’s face. His face turned into a more concerned look. “What’s wrong Kristen?”
I just couldn’t speak.
I opened my mouth, thinking maybe it triggered something.
Nothing.
Frank walked slowly to the bed. “Kristen, come on, what’s wrong?”
Suddenly I just dropped to the floor crying hysterically. “Everything. Went. Wrong.!!!!!!!” I got out in between sobs.
“No. No. Kristen, everything is going fine! Bob is going to be fine. Danny will only be a few hours away. And Kate, WILL make up with you soon. Don’t worry!........Everything is going to be alright.” The last part he said had so little hope in it.
“No! Everything is not alright! It won’t ever be alright! I can’t live without my brother! I can’t live without Bob. I can’t live without Kate! She’s like my sister! I can’t let this happen! I won’t let this happen!” I sobbed more into my hands, and on Frank’s- now drenched- shirt.
“It’s gonna be ok Kristen. It’s gonna be ok…” Those last words faded out in my head. They came back, over and over again, but every time, they faded, make it seem like there was so much less hope left.
