Introduction

My name is Yvonne Williams, a name that back then would be funny for the kids at elementary school, and would be an excuse or reason for my classmates to make fun of me. Now I’m 20 years old, and I’m studying principles of engineering (POE). Currently my mother is dying from leukemia, there’s nothing I can do than stay by her side, holding her hand, I want to stay with her until her last breath. A lot of doctors have told me to go home to rest, if something happen they would call me, but I cannot be relaxed with my mom in this state, she has always stayed by my side. I cannot leave her now. Actually she is not my biological mother, she said that my real mother put me on her care. Maybe they were really close friends? But every time I asked her about my real parents, she would show an expression full of sadness, and she would say “You will understand one day, dear, for now just live a peaceful life” everytime she told me that I was full of confusion, why would she say a peaceful life? Maybe my life with my parents wouldn’t be peaceful, did they have a lot of family problems? I really cannot understand why sometimes she act so mysterious, she doesn’t like talking about her past nor about my father, but sometimes she tends to tell me how my mother was. A young woman with beautiful and shining golden hair, blue eyes deeper than the ocean, but more clear than the sky. She was loved by a lot of people, but also hated by people full of envy and jealousy. She was a woman that would try to smile even in the most depressing moments, her name was Evianna, her nickname was evy, similar to my nickname that is Ivy. That’s how she was according to how mother described her. But I think that she was just exaggerating, from that description my mother seems to be a foreigner, and that description sounds a little out of place, becausey hair is a strong black, same as my eyes. How could I look so different from my mother? Maybe I took after my father? I don’t really know.

After so many things were going through my mind I just fell asleep.

*Beep——— Beep——— Beep*

A strong sound of beeping woke me up, and then it suddenly stopped. It felt like time had paused, I looked at my mother in the bed. She was sitting while smiling she patted my head, as she said “it’s time for you to go back, I know you are the only one, that can make him smile.”

In confusion I just nodded, and she smiled then she placed something on my hand.

*Beep—- beep —- beep*

I opened my eyes and there was a lot of people entering the room, they were the doctors, my mother was dying. With the machine beeping none stop, and the noice by the doctors and nurses in the room, I was shocked, and freez, and then......

*beep———— beep—————- beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep*

The beeping stopped and so did my mother’a heart.

I couldn’t do anything, but cry. And then I looked at my hand, there was a brazalete, it was a black with golden like dragon shaped brazalete. It was beautiful. But, wait.... wasn’t that a dream?! Did my mother talked to me before she died? I couldn’t tell her how much I loved her.

But then I felt a warmth around my back, it felt as if mother was hugging me. This feeling of nostalgia, made me want to cry, and smile at the same time.
