Beneath My Shadows

Mixed feelings

You all may now come in and say abridged words of sympathy to her, please don't say things that hurts as it may weaken her, the doctor added. Jane enters the ward as she begins to cry. Oh my poor Emilia! Who must have this to you? Who is that wicked and heartless soul that must have doone this to you, my dearest! Why must it bee you by the way? If I should notice who must have done this, swears, I will shred that person into pieces and give his or her bones to the vultures to feed on! Such a wicked world, she sobs as she tries leaving. On her way out, she was consoled by Jacob whom must have felt the love she has for her bestie, Emilia. This even made him love her more as he took her as a good friend. Immediately, Jacob entered the ward to say some overwhelming words to Emilia as he did. After that, he took his leave to meet Jane, but no one was there only her bag. So, he decided awaiting for her as he felt that she will be back sooner or later.

Jane entered into the ladies as she began staring at herself in the mirror. (Soliloquising) As she began point at herself on the mirror... You this pretty drama queen! You actually acted well back then, she laughed in an evil manner. Emilia, Emilia, Emilia everyday, she began singing. You thing you will win, you thought you were smart, but you never knew a queen will make you bow, she laughed sarcastically. Oh my! She washed her face as she dipped her hand into her pocket where she took a lip gloss and applied as she left, heading towards the ward. On seeing Jacob, she began sobbing again approaching him. Oh my goodness! Jane you are still crying? Of course! Don't you know what she means to me? I know. But, it's fine, alright? You need to enlighten up. Moreover, you may go home and have some rest, I know you must have been stressed up. Alright then, please take good care of her and yourself, I will be back in the morning. She was about leaving when Jacob grasped her on the waist and kisses her. She blushed and wove to him.

On arriving home, Jane began screaming as she danced around. Oh my goodness! I can't feel my lips any more! Did Jacob just kiss me today? Gosh! It felt so warm. So, this is what that evil Emilia has been enjoying all this while? I hope she never wakes up, sleep for eternity, sleeping beauty. You actually need to rest, let me help you play your role, she jumps into the bed as she inhaled and exhaled deeply. Now, I can feel my happiness rising! I can sleep freely, no burden, no stupid thinking, no Emilia most especially, its just me and my Jay, Jay, Jay... Cob, she danced and chanted aloud. I just prays Emilia remains there for years or let she die in there, let me get my harmony back! I need to be happy, she sobs as she began to laugh hardly. Can't wait for tomorrow, she slept off.

Jacob stared at Emilia all through, observing her as he portrayed his love to her by telling her some warmth sayings but, there was no move or response from Emilia. After all the sweet words, he slept off as well. The next morning, he awakens to see if she has awoken as well but, nothing was significant. Just as he was about going home to dress up, he met Jane as they both welcomed each other. How are you feeling Jacob? How is Emilia? Any improvements, has she opened her eyes? Oh no Jane! She is still down. I'm on my way to call the doctor to see cause I want to take my leave and dress up, then I will be back. Okay then, let me get the doctor, Jane added as Jacob walked her down the stairs as she called the doctor's attention. Immediately, Jacob left. The doctor followed Jane to where Emilia was still lying like a statue, immovable. He took his stethoscope as he checked her pulse rate and made other inquiries. He then turned up to Jane, nodding his head side ways, nothing, he added. There is no sign of improvement. I predict that the poison ingested into her might have started eating her liver up before you guys even brought her here. Anyway, she needs to eat as well so, she will be able to regain strength because, she's looking weak. Oh no! My poor Emilia! I hope you get better sooner for me, she kissed her. Alright doctor, you guys have to be quick with all this, my friend can't lie here forever, please. Oh yeah, we will try our best! Moreover, I'm still inquisitive of knowing how she was poisoned and what kind of poison that was given to her. Please, you all should investigate about this, he added as he was about taking his leave. Thank you so much doc, you are the best! I will heeed to all you have said, thanks once again. It's nothing dear, he takes his leave.
