like this and we should have been at the venue, happy and with our loved ones, why is this
necessary, why are there so many people my wife has experienced this kind of hardship.
"Calm down mija, don't lose hope for your husband, I believe Draven is alive." Mama caressed
my back and kissed my head. My grip on Mama tightened, the rescue team went up and the sun
was about to set.
I was dumbfounded by what the police were doing, they lifted my husband's car little by little,
slowly lowered it and when they lowered it, there was no body there. I cheered up and handed
Draven's gear to me.
"Ma'am, we will look for your husband's body downstairs, the car crashed quite far away, its
brakes are broken." A plastic of Draven's stuff was handed to me, it was full of blood and my
hand was shaking as I reached for it.
"It might take us a long time to find-"
"I will wait here, I know he is alive and I will not leave here until I see my husband." I shook my
head and they couldn't do anything, I was still in my gown and my veil was gone, I sat inside our
car, holding Draven's stuff and Mama left, I'll come back later when my son and I get home.
My spirit is alive and well, it's getting darker and darker, people are disappearing and there are
only a few of us left. Sheen came with food and clothes, when I got out of the car he hugged me
tightly. "Be strong Kourtney, don't lose hope, come and get dressed in my car, it's heavily tinted."
I nodded and reluctantly entered.
Even though I was struggling, I took off the wedding gown, put on pants and a shirt, Sheen had a
jacket with him so I put it on. It was cold outside and after I was done, I immediately went out of
the car.
"Have you eaten?" she asked and I smiled at her bitterly. "I don't feel like eating," I answered
without showing any interest on the food that she just brought, Sheen took a deep breath and
reached for my bag. I simply smiled and accepted it.
"Take a bite now, maybe hunger will get to you. And for later you have the strength, I know you
won't leave here." I nodded and sat in the back of the car, opened the food, I stared at the food
and reluctantly reached for the spoon.
I've only had four bites and I have no appetite, I feel like I'm full. I shook my head and closed the
food, the police were still busy downstairs.
I took the cigarette out of my bag and lit it, holding my husband's stuff, I couldn't keep it away
from me, I wanted to rest my mind and body, because I feel so tired now.
I put down the cigarette and hugged my thigh, hoping and taking a risk that Draven would come,
hug me and make me sit now, like he always does to me.
I know deep inside my mind that he is all good, he is not sick and he will come back to me right
now, because that is what he promised, he always does what he promised and I know that he
cannot see me miserable.
I inhale the smoke, look at the sky and closed my eyes, I want to question the man who created
everything, because why am I always alone, why am I always hurt and failed like this, can't I
love and be happy with my life?
He gives happiness in my life, completes me at those times when I have no one to cling to, be
close to and lean on. Draven is such a good guy, he has a pure heart and I don't want to compare
him to Navier, but god knows that my husband is a good husband and father to my son.
I can't say anything bad about my husband, because he is so perfect for me, my life and our
family.
I bite my lips and let my tears fall down on my cheeks, stunned at the cliff and waiting for the
people to rise. "Honey, I am waiting. Please come back to me, I don't know if I can handle it if I
lose you." My hand turned into a fist as the rescue team went up.
I got down quickly, Sheen helped me get out of the car, we ran closer and their shouting seemed
to deafen me, slowly lifted the body bag and it was as if I was covered with dirt and dirt.
My knees fell to the ground and Sheen was holding my hand now, one of the police officers
approached and showed me the pictures from his camera. "Mrs, we found a body and based on
the wounds and scars it happened a few hours ago-"
"No, that's not my husband, he said that he will always be here and, no, not my Draven." Sheen
hugged me and my eyes darkened, I shook my head and didn't believe, how did this happen, he
said he will never leave me and will always be by my side.
They took me to the ambulance and our driver was the one who drove my car, I was in Sheen's
car and we followed the ambulance, I was gasping for breath and Sheen handed me water. I'm
stunned at the dashboard and speechless now.
