"About Her"

"Ana?"
The voice seemed to be coming far away in this thick darkness that had surrounded her ever since she fell in her house.
Then it came again...
"Ana?"
Her eye lids slowly fluttered and everything seemed to be a blur at first.
"Ana...do you hear me?"
She blinked again and everything started to focus...she saw Kenneth was standing over her with a look she had never seen before in his eyes.
He had been crying...
She tried to speak but her throat felt like razor blades were there instead. Her whole body was sore and she felt like she had been sleeping for days.
Thin sunlight fell through the small window in the back of the nurses' office and lit up Kenneth's tried looking face.
She then looked down at herself and now she found her stomach flat.
The sore feeling then raced in her body again and she shut her eyes.
"What had happened?" she thought as she tried to speak again...this time her voice was weak and horsed.
"Kenneth..." She started but broke off.
Every part of her was still screaming in pain, she felt so tried and run over by whatever had happened.
Panic and fear entered her heart when she looked at herself one more time and remembered.
"Kenneth?...where are my babies?"
Kenneth looked down at his hands and then brought his raw eyes up to her.
He needed to tell her...but how?
"Ana..."
He started and then his voice trailed off as he told her what had happened that night...
