Sam Bennet was sitting at his desk at the police station when he
heard an APB over the police scanner requesting police assistance at the
Lopez-Fitzgerald house for a possible suicide. Quickly, Sam frowned and
pushed himself out of his heavy chair and ran out the door to his car.
.
Luis Lopez-Fitzgerald felt his sister's neck, checking for a pulse. He found none, so he checked to see if he could feel her breathing and he couldn't. With tears streaming down his eyes, he took his hands and began pushing on Theresa's heart, giving her the first round of CPR.
.
Down stairs, next to the phone in the Lopez-Fitzgerald kitchen, Pillar sank down to the ground letting her shoulder length raven black hair fall into her eyes. How could her daughter do such a thing to her again? However, as Pillar's mind raced she realized this had to do with the loss of little Ethan. It had devastated Theresa. Before that Theresa had been able to bounce back from anything, always able to rely on her belief in "fate." After little Ethan had been taken away, Theresa never mentioned fate anymore. Instead, she said she had been cursed for her deeds. Something in Theresa's manner had changed, she had acted mature for the first time, and yet her demeanor had frightened her mother.
Theresa had hardly spoken, and she would not come down from her room. She would only cry silently and have a serious gleam in her eyes. Theresa had never mourned silently before, Pillar thought.
.
Sam found himself speeding in his car trying to hurry to the Lopez- Fitzgerald house as rapidly as possible. Moments later, he arrived in their drive way at the same time as the ambulance.
.
Pillar watched as EMT's rushed into her house with Sam trailing behind them. He looked up to Pillar's tear stained face and his own heart went out to her. "What's happened Pillar? Who's hurt?"
Pillar could only glare at Sam. She was barely able to mutter, "My daughter. Upstairs. Her room. Help her please!"
Hastily, Sam stomped up the stairs, with the EMT's trailing him.
