Theme-911 and Wildfires
Time Period: A Flashback-An Alternate Different Universe
Date: 12-20-1990
Situation: Sarah (25 years old) gives birth to Kitty at home during a blizzard. John (6 years old and home from school) witnesses and helps out with the birth.
Scene 1: Sarah's bedroom
Sarah (in active labor, she rests in the bed): JOHN!
John (frightened, he enters the bedroom): Yes mommy
Sarah (giving the telephone to John): Please call 911 for me
John: Why?
Sarah (rubbing her stomach): Your baby sister Kitty is coming. We must go to the hospital.
John (dialing 911): I don't hear anything
Sarah (hanging up the phone): The telephone lines are down due to the blizzard.
John (worried, he lays down beside Sarah in bed): What are we going to do?
Sarah: We are going to stay home
(Sarah could've contacted the next door neighbor who was a nurse. Sarah couldn't afford her services though. Sarah felt confident she could deliver Kitty on her own because she gave birth to John without any medical help.)
Scene 2: The bathroom
Situation: Kitty's actual birth (Christmas songs play on a radio (set by John) in the background)
Sarah (sitting in the bathtub, she is transitioning into the pushing stage): John, please look away
John (looking away): Ok, mommy
Sarah (crying and screaming into a towel): AHA..AHA..AHA...AHA
John (staring back briefly): Something is coming out of you
Sarah (yelling): Didn't I tell you to look away?
John (looking away): I am sorry, mommy
Sarah (squats and cups her hands around the baby's crowning hand): GRR...AHA...AHA...AHA..AHA...AHA
John (frightened): Mommy, I am scared
Sarah (pushing out the rest of the baby's body): Your baby sister Kitty is almost here
(The sound of Kitty's crying brings Sarah and John joy and peace. The Flashback ends.)
