As soon as the memory came, a blast occurred. She buried the faces of her children in her chest.
The noise was so loud that her ears started to hurt. She could hear the screaming of her children.
When it dawned on her that Jack didn’t come back, she left the babies. Tears started to blur her visions.
She looked toward the house, which was now nothing more than a mountain of ash.
She ran toward the house with tears streaming down her eyes.
She wanted to search the house for him. She knew that he would be alive with Charlotte.
She never wanted him to die. She always wanted him to love her and she too wanted to love him.
She would hate herself if something happened to him. It was she who had wished to be dead.
She was not in her right state of mind. She wasn’t thinking when she wished that stupid thing.
Maxim grabbed her by her waist in the middle of the way and said “Are you stupid? Where do you think you are going?”
She squirmed in his hold and yelled “Leave me. My husband is inside. I have to save him.”
“Don’t be stubborn.” He replied back.
Jack strode toward the basement quickly as much as he could with his injured body.
He saw that the door was unlocked to the basement. He went inside with his gun in his hand.
Fortunately, no one was there except Charlotte. She was lying on a bed, her back facing the door.
When the door opened, she got tensed and thought that maybe it was her father, coming here to beat her again.
She moved her eyes toward the intruder and got shocked when she saw that the person was none other than her brother.
But she got tensed when she saw the condition of him. His nose was bleeding along with his head.
His white shirt was soaked in blood and some blood drops were on the floor where he was standing.
“Jack” she whispered painfully.
Her cheeks were swollen due to the slaps which she had gotten from her father.
“Come on Charlotte. We have to leave quickly. There is a bomb here.” He replied to her.
He opened her handcuff with the key which Maxim had given him earlier when they parted ways.
“What? Bomb? Jack, what happened to you? Are Anna and babies alright?” She fired all these questions at him.
“They all are fine. And you are gonna be too.” He said and helped her to stand up.
He grabbed her hand and took her toward the opposite direction of the door.
“Jack this is not the way.” She told him
“I know Charlotte. We won’t make it out alive if we chose that way.” He said.
He finally found the secret door that Maxim had told him about and took her to that way.
They ran toward the cave which led to the forest which was a little far away from the house.
A piece of stone was on her way and Charlotte fell from it and winced when her knees got scratched by the floor.
“Shit” Jack mumbled and helped her to get up.
“I am sorry.” She whispered.
They were only 20 meters away from the end of the cave when the house blasted.
The force was so much that they both were thrown out of the cave and both landed in the forest.
“Finally, ” Jack mumbled
His family was now safe. His eyes were now covered with darkness.
He could see the stars and his breath was now getting abnormal. He groaned loudly when his heart started to pain more than before.
“Jack? What happened to you, Jack? Oh god. Are you listening?” Charlotte patted his cheeks while sobbing.
“Charlotte” she heard him whispering.
“Yes. Jack, I am gonna call for help.” She cried
“Hmm. You know that I love you right?” He mumbled while blinking his eyes.
He wanted to keep his eyes open maybe to see someone for the last time.
He knew that he won’t be able to live now as he is going into a cardiac arrest.
John (his therapist) had told him to never take these drugs again because it could lead to cardiac arrest.
“I love you too, Jack. Please don’t leave me. I don’t have anyone other than you. You are the only one I have.” She sobbed on his chest.
He caressed her hair and before he could close his eyes, he heard what he was craving for.
“Jack. I am sorry. Please don’t die and leave us alone.”
He gave her a last glance and with a smile closed his eyes and surrendered himself to the darkness.
“Come on. I know where they are.” Maxim told her.
Richard had already called 911 and the paramedics are on their way. He knew that Jack couldn’t die.
He won’t let him die. With this determination, he strode toward the direction, which Maxim was leading, with his grandchildren.
Within minutes, they reached the place and found Charlotte sobbing on Jack’s chest.
The paramedics arrived quickly as the hospital was only 5 minutes away from the place where they were right now.
Both Anna and Charlotte were sobbing and it was a good thing that the children were sleeping due to exhaustion.
The paramedics took him and placed him inside the ambulance. Anna was inside the Ambulance with
Jack.
Richard along with the children was in the other ambulance with Charlotte as she was injured too.
She grabbed his hand and said “I am sorry for wishing something like that. I was not in the right state of my mind. Please don’t die. I need you.
The medics checked him for some minutes then put an oxygen mask on his face.
“It’s a cardiac arrest.” One of the medics told her.
She looked at them with teary wide eyes and put her hand on her mouth to muffle the sobs.
They reached the hospital quickly and then took Jack toward the ICU. Anna had to wait outside as she wasn’t allowed inside.
She slumped down on the chair and stared at the floor. Then she covered her face with her hands and cried.
“I hope you die, Jack”
“I hope you die, Jack”
This line kept repeating in her head, making her guilty enough to cry.
She had heard it from someone that we shouldn’t demand anything from God when we are angry.
We have to think before speaking or making wishes because god is always listening to us.
She doesn’t want him to die and leave her alone. She wanted him to alright so that they could stay together in peace.
She maybe doesn’t love him right now. But she cared for him a lot.
She was ready to forgive him. He had apologized for his mistake enough and everyone deserves a second chance.
She wasn’t a God. And even he gave us second chances when we made any mistakes.
The doctors were checking on Charlotte too. Richard came and sat beside her.
“Jane is back and she took the babies home,” Richard told her.
She nodded slowly then she remembered her mother. She turned toward him and said “Mom”
Richard cut her off and said “She is alright and conscious right now. She wanted to come but I told her to rest.”
She again nodded while blinking her eyes to keep her tears at bay. Richard sighed and pulled her gently to his chest.
She wept on his chest and said “Dad it’s my fault. Last night, I was drunk and I wished him to die, dad. I was angry and wanted to hurt him. I did sin. I never wanted him to die. I need him, dad. I really do.”
She wiped the tears but it didn’t do any good as a new set of tears started to stream.
“I… I don’t want him to die, dad. Charlotte doesn’t have anyone except him. Babies want him and I want him too ” She sobbed.
She sniffled “I will forgive him. I will forget everything but I don’t want him to die.”
