'Glimpses of You' Final chapterA Story by ~Sarah~ Idríel The FairFinal chapter 'Our love is eternal'
Helen looked at her little sister who was lying on a hospital bed with hoses around her and the monitor beep solitaire at a steady pace. Ann's pale face was haggard. However, she seemed restful. But Helen felt tired. She remembered still when she had heard of Mike's accident from their mother and she had went to see Ann. Helen had her own keys to Ann and Mike's apartment because Ann had given extra keys to her in case of emergency. And Helen remembered how her sister had lay on the floor, looking almost dead. When Ann had finally woken up, she had been looking for someone and then she had burst into tears. Ann had cried in Helen's arms until their mother had arrived and they had gone to the hospital. There they were by Mike's side all those long four days, Ann did not leave his room at all. And now Helen sat down next to her sister (it was the third day evening) she had been cried and hoped. She had prayed for miracle. But nothing happened. After Ann had returned to consciousness (and after that she had cardiac arrest), she had been connected to a ventilator. In the room was quiet, just the monitor continued to beep. Beep....Beep.....Beep. Helen woke up (she found herself having fallen asleep) suddenly for a strange feeling that she and Ann were not alone in the room. Helen looked around but no one was there.
Then suddenly she noticed something that ALMOST stopped her heart. Someone was standing beside Ann's bed looking at her smiling. The man looked familiar. Helen opened her mouth to speak to the man when he turned his face towards Helen and THEN she knew who it was, but she did not believe her eyes. 'Mike?' Helen whispered. Mike smiled at her and then he said with voice that seemed to come from somewhere far away; 'She's safe now. Don't worry.'
After this Mike's ghost disappeared suddenly and Helen stood still for a long time, wondering was it all just a DREAM. She's safe now. Don't worry. Mike's words revolve in Helen's mind and she expect the worst.
Ann felt how she seemed as if she's floating in the air, as in a dream, however not seeing any dreams. It was dark and it seemed like thousands of stars shone above her. Yet she felt warm. Just like as enormous brightness and LOVE would be surrounded her. So many memories. So many memories in her mind. Ann opened her eyes slowly when she heard Helen's voice echoes in her ears. Like a prayer. Ann stood up and found herself in the hospital corridor. Ann found herself standing at the door of the room where she heard Helen's voice and how she pray for her. 'Helen!' Ann whispered and she was just about to take the door handle when she heard a familiar man's voice behind her. 'Ann? Sweetie is that you?' Ann's hand was shaking at the door handle. Her whole body trembling. 'Mike?' she whispered again but now her voice was aching. Ann turned to look at him. Mike smiled at her and then hugged her tightly. 'I love you so much Ann! I've missed you sweetie' Mike said. 'I love you Mike! I love you!' Ann cried and kissed him. Mike held Ann in his arms for a long time until finally he whispered to her softly 'Sweetie, do you want to come with me to eternity? It's beautiful out there, trust me darling.' Mike kissed Ann and hold her tightly in his arms. Ann trembled. 'Oh you can not believe how MUCH I've hoped to see you again, how MUCH I've hoped to hold you in my arms again!' Ann said her voice trembling. 'Then come with me! Come with me sweetie' Mike said. Ann looked into his eyes, his blue-gray eyes and she smiled with tears running down her cheeks. 'I will my love, I will follow you anywhere on earth or in heaven. I love you' she said and they kissed. Mike stretched out his hand and Ann grabbed his hand smiling and then she turned to look towards the door and whispered quietly to Helen 'Goodbye my dear sis, thank you for everything, I love you!' Mike smiled to Ann and said 'Don't worry sweetie, she's gonna be fine. I love you, are you ready?' Ann smiled to him and nodded.
In the meantime Helen sat in her sister's bedside and held her hand after the doctors had tried in vain to revive her and finally give up. Ann died in exactly the same time as Mike, quarter past eleven in the evening, at that time when stars shone in the endless sky.
