time.
    In the next few moments, I
felt the huge impact hit my body with full force. I was lost in the
confusion of the accident. I could hear the screeching sound of the
brakes and feel the shattered glass raining on my face. I could feel
the tearing pain in my head and the blood streaming down my head. I
couldn’t stand it; it was excruciating. I couldn't move; my
body was hurting so much that it was like being in another dimension.
I was screaming hysterically; my hands were trembling, all covered in
glass.
    “ Tyler...
Tyler!” I screamed.
    “ Cassidy…
are... are you all right?” He asked weakly.
    I moved my mouth to speak,
but I couldn't. I was feeling numb; all my strength was abandoning me
and I could feel my heart beat slowing down. My vision got blurred,
and I was finding it hard to keep my eyes open, they had got so
heavy.
    “ Cassidy?”
I heard him ask again.
    I thought about Kylie and
David and tears welled up in my eyes. I knew I was never going to see
them again.
    And then I closed my eyes.

CHAPTER 7

    David's POV
    I opened my eyes startled by
the ring tone of my phone. It had woken me up from my sleep and the
shrill noise had made me jump out of my skin. I looked at my watch;
it was 4 in the morning. My God who could it be? I answered the phone
and heard a person crying on the other end. My heart missed a beat.
Who was it?
    “ Hello?”
I said.
    “ David...”
a feminine voice said sobbing. I froze.
    “ Who
is it?” I asked worried.
    “ It's
Angela.”
    “ Angela?”
My stomach ached, why would Cassidy's mum call me in the middle of
the night? Oh my God Cassidy. “Angela what's wrong? Why are you
crying? What happened?” I asked already panicking and fearing
the worst.
    “ Cassidy
had an accident!”
    I held my breath, my knees
trembling so much that I couldn't even stand up. As the news began to
sink in I felt like a choking sensation. It was as if my world was
already crumbling down at the thought of anything bad happening to
her.
    “ Oh
my God... how is she? When did this happen?” I asked as I
struggled to find my voice.
    “ At
around 7 o'clock, she was in the car with Tyler and they crashed in a
truck.”
    I stood rigid with horror as
nausea clawed at my stomach.
    “ How
is she? Angela is she all right? Please tell me!”
    She didn't respond and
instead she began to sob even more. No! She couldn't be dead, no!! My
heart was breaking into pieces. I felt my mouth dry up with fear and
I was going to throw up. My God, the pain I was feeling was tearing
me apart. “Angela!!”
    “ Not
yet but she's in critical condition,” She finally managed to
say “At least that's what they told me. She's in coma David!”
    “ No!
God no!!” I screamed. “And Tyler?”
    “ He's
okay, he just broke an arm.” I felt anger flush into my veins.
    “ Where
are you Angela?”
    “ I'm
at the airport, I’ve just arrived. Luckily I found a flight
immediately and could leave.”
    “ Do
you want me to come for you? So that we'll go straight to hospital?”
    “ No
Dave, I'll catch a taxi but maybe it's better if you stay home. Tyler
didn't want me to tell you but I couldn't. I know how much you still
love her. And then there's Kylie. Oh poor Kylie.” She began to
cry again. I felt my blood boiling. Suddenly my weakness disappeared.
    “ Stay
home? No. I'm running to her, how can I stay home?”
    “ Yes
but there's Kylie with you, you'll have to tell her.”
    “ Angela
she has to know sooner or later. I'll wake her up and go to hospital.
I don't care what Tyler says.” I said determined.
    “ OK
then, see you there.”
    I hung up and remained
staring in the darkness for a while. I ran my hands through my hair
and cried. I couldn't believe this was happening, it couldn’t
end this way. Tears streamed down my cheeks, as I prayed to God.
Please, give her another chance please, I love her so much. I was
feeling desperate but I knew I had to stand up and be brave for the
sake of our precious daughter. I
