Siren (Freewrite Challenge)
I remember that day. We're going home for business matters. I'm still perplexed even it's been months when she's diagnosed with cancer. She's been struggling for days, and her memories are dwindling. Hard of breathing is what she's experiencing every morning, and she needs better medical attention in the hospital.
As I'm heading home, I know she'll be brought in the hospital. But I'm expecting she won't be home already. As we're close to the house, I can hear the siren of the ambulance. I got off the vehicle, and saw my mother being brought inside the ambulance.
It's something I don't want to see. Some relatives are around but I don't know who to talk to. It's better not to express my emotions towards anyone who will carelessly tell you discouraging words. Such words that will weaken my desire in holding on with the hope.
