I do not own Summerland, it is a shame but it is true.
I know a really smart three year old so don't tell me that it cannot happen.
Complications.
Bradin grabbed the board and it didn't come up. He then dove under and followed the cord, the water was turning red, and stinging his eyes. The waves came and crashed him into the coral, which was under the board. He kept going. he swam as best as he could with the onslaught of the waves. He had his hand now running down the cord, to guide him towards the end of it. He had his shut so the stinging would stop. The hand not on the cord was in front of his face so he could tell it he was going to bump into something.
Finally after what seemed like forever, but it wasn't since he still had breath left, his hand that had been on the cord hit some coral.
He opened his eyes and looked in front of his face. His hand was inches from the coral. He looked at the cord in his hand and followed it down. The waves were less felt here, but they still could be felt. He body was still hitting the coral. He went around the coral and he saw hair. It was going in every which direction. He then saw her body. She was bleeding badly. He quickly on did the strap around her ankle and put his hand around her waist. He swam to the surface as fast as he could.
He reached the top and swam to the beach. By the time he got to the beach, Jay was out of the shop and Canan was now in his arms.
Jay
After Jay had called the police and told him what had happened, he went into the back room.
"Canan, wake up." Jay said
"What?" Canan said sleepily.
"We have to go down to the beach." Jay said
"Why?" Canan asked
"Because we do. Come on." Jay said as he stood up and picked up the sleeping child. He locked the backdoor, grabbed his keys, and locked the front of the shop, all of this took about a minute or two. He headed towards the beach. He spotted the kid that had come into the store.
"Where is the kid you took here?" Jay asked the kid
"In the water." The kid answered as he pointed towards the water.
Jay realized what was there. The Reef.Bradin
Bradin gently carried Cat up the beach out of the water. He checked for breathing and didn't find on.
He started to do mouth to mouth. He prayed it wasn't to late. After what seemed like to long, Bradin felt water enter his mouth as he was about to breath in hers again. He quickly removed his mouth from hers and turned her slightly so the water wouldn't go back down the windpipe. When the coughing stopped, Bradin turned her back on her back.
He watched as her eyes opened slightly, they looked up at him, for an instant, then closed.
"Cat stay with me, please. Come on, you have to stay with me." Bradin kept saying. "You cannot leave me now, I need you, Canan needs you."
By then the paramedics came to the scene.
They took Cat and told Bradin to come too, because he was bleeding. He hoped into the Ambulance and sat at Cat's side watching her as one of the paramedics tried to clean him off. The other one took care of Cat. By the time they got to the hospital, Bradin was cleaned up, he wasn't in to bad of a shape, mostly bruises, and a few cuts. Most of the blood that clang to his clothes was Catheren.
He realized at that second that Canan hadn't seen any of it. She didn't even look awake. She must have fallen asleep on Jay's shoulder, after he had woken her up.
Cat was stitched up and then put into her own room, after about an hour, of stitching her open wounds. He went to call his Aunt.
"Hello." Bradin heard what sounded like his sister.
"Niki." Bradin said
"Yeah?" Niki asked
"This is Bradin."
"Where are you, Aunt Ava was so worried, she heard that someone when down at the reef." Niki said
"I'm at the hospital." Bradin said, "Didn't Jay call earlier?"
"Not that I know of, he wouldn't have been able to get through it he tried, Aunt Ava just got off the phone. Wait, why are you at the hospital?" Niki asked
"The person that went down was Cat." Bradin said
"Oh, Gosh. Is she okay?" Niki asked
"They say she should be but she has to stay here for a while." Bradin said.
"I'll tell Aunt Ava, do you want to talk to her?" Niki asked
"No you can tell her, I am going to see if Jay is here or not." Bradin said
"Okay." Niki said
Bradin hung up the phone and went into the waiting room. He spotted Jay and Canan waiting in where else, the waiting room.
Jay was the first to spot him; he stood up as Bradin approached.
"How is she?" Jay asked
"The doctor didn't tell you?" Bradin asked
"No. How is she?" Jay asked
"They say she'll make it." Bradin said
"Can I go see my mommy?" Canan cried from her seat.
"Sure, but they are only letting family back there for now until she is moved to a different floor." Brain said
"Why are they moving her?" Jay asked
"They think she broke her legs in a few places and they are going to have to operate on her legs if they are broken. They are waiting for the X-Ray's to make sure they are broken. They don't want to operate if it isn't needed." Bradin said
"Really." Jay asked.
"Yeah." Bradin said. "Come on Canan, they wont let us see her for a while. They said only ten more minutes, since the tests are almost done."
Canan did as she was told. She grabbed hold on Bradin's hand and walked with him toward Cat's room.
"Excuse me, only family is allowed in there right now." A nurse said as she exited Cat's room.
"This is her daughter." Bradin said.
"And you?" The nurse asked
"Her fiancé." Bradin said
"Okay, you can go in, but only for a few more minutes." The nurse said
Bradin lead Canan through the door, and picked her up. He let her see her mother. It wasn't very pretty, She had tubes coming out of her in every which direction, and Bradin knew that there would be one down her throat soon. They were in there for about a minute when the machines started to beat rapidly. Bradin ran to the door.
"I need a doctor in here." Bradin yelled down the hall.
One of the doctors that had been working on Cat before came running. He came into the room, and started to do CPR. Two nurses came running into the room, and one took over the CPR, while the doctor started to insert a tube in Cat's throat. Bradin was on against the wall, holding Canan. He looked at the heartbeat monitor and watched as it flat lined.
"What does that mean daddy?" Canan said as she looked into Bradin's eyes.
He looked back not sure what to say.
"Daddy?" Canan asked. Canan's eyes and voice filled with fear.
Bradin wanted to stay, but he knew that if he did he would be in the way. He carried Canan out of the room. Canan was still trying to get him to talk to her, but he couldn't, his voice would betray him.
Bradin walked back to the waiting room, where Jay was still waiting.
"What happened?" Jay asked seeing the fear and pain in Bradin's eyes.
When Bradin reached the chair he placed Canan on one of the seats.
"Daddy, tell me what happened." Canan begged.
Jay looked into Bradin's eyes and knew exactly what happened.
"Oh, God." Jay said.
"Why wont anybody tell me what's going on?" Canan cried.
"Your mommy's heart, stopped." Bradin said trying to keep his voice steady.
At that moment, Ava, Susannah, Johnny, Derrick, and Niki walked in.
"What happened?" Ava asked as she saw the three standing in the middle of the room.
Bradin had tears in his eyes; his Aunt came over to him.
"Bradin what happened?" Ava asked
"Her heart stopped." Bradin said as he wrapped his arms around his Aunts shoulders and cried. His knees went out from under him, causing both Aunt and Nephew to collapse to the floor.
"It'll be okay, Bradin." Ava said
"I cannot lose her, I cannot." Bradin said as he cried some more.
"You wont." Ava said, she herself close to tears. "You wont." She repeated.
End of Chapter
Tell me what you think, I would love to hear from everybody who is reading this. Some of the medical things might not really happen, I don't now, since I am not a doctor, though I could have asked my mother if she knew if it was possible, since she is a nurse, but she's at work right now so I decided not to ask her. Well tell me what you think. Review Please.
