I Have Your Heart

As the bus approaches the stop, 'Sara looks up from her phone

and see's her community in squalor. It was once a thriving

community of great people and green pastures, a town with

healthy great minds and souls that were productive and

independent. This day things were the total opposite. Burning

buildings, local neighborhood markets and banks were just gravel,

and ashes. Homes that once were value to one's heart and

dedication to maintain were abandoned. The community was left

with the extremely sick and mentally ill people who's one true

power was stripped and blocked. As Sara clutches onto her

shoulder bag and hunches over to get more securement for the

six block's she has to walk to her grandma Rosie's house 'she

startled by sirens and screaming agonizing voices from the

mentally ill people running up the street screaming of sorrow.

Sara becomes fearful and nervous” Not knowing what to expect

when she arrives to her grandma Rosie's house. She passes by

homes that once held beautiful childhood memories to nothing.

She's emotional she's hyperventilating walking. She finally

arrives to grandma Rosie's house “Knock Knock” she calls as

she bangs on the squeaky screen door “Knock Knock” (the door

opens) 'Grandma? She calls but no answer, she looks around the

front room the kitchen the laundry room and then she feels a

brush of wind coming from the back hall way. She walks back

to grandma Rosie's bedroom to no grandma Rosie. Sara panics

she's dreading the thought that something bad might of happened

to grandma Rosie. She starts to observe anything that may have

been out of place or suspicious looking in the room she walks

around the room observing everything. She glances on the floor

to what appears to be grandma Rosie's heart shaped pendent

necklace, “OMG! Said Sara” Grandma never take's off her heart

shaped necklace. Sara is distraught! She quickly puts the

necklace in her shoulder bag and frantically runs out the front

door. Sara runs screaming “Help Help Help” until she runs into

a peace officer who seems to be overwhelmed by the chaotic

environment of the neighborhood. Officer could you please help

me? I'm looking for my grandmother Sara shouts 'the officer

glances at Sara and ignores her brushing into the the crowd to

try to keep them into control. Sara shouts again “Please officer

Please! The officer turns to Sara and ask' what's your grandmother

name? Sara responds' her name is Rosie' “Rosie Strong. Sara continues

to explain to the officer that she has her grandma's heart shaped

locket necklace and she never takes the necklace off. Then the

officer points up to the sky with a paused gesture of remembrance

and replies “OH Yeah ..the ambulance picked her up she didn't

want to go to the hospital she tried to refuse but there was a

substantial amount of blood leaking from her head, it was to

dangerous she finally agreed to go she kept saying 'I lost my heart.

Thank you! Said Sara as she makes her way threw the crowd to

get to the nearest hospital. Twenty minutes later she arrives to the

hospital frantically she goes to the nurses kiosk “excuse me I'm

looking for my grandmother her name is Rosie Strong. The nurse

replies hesitantly hold on ma'am let me go get the doctor. The

doctor comes out introduces himself and says to Sara' I'm sorry

your grandmother did not make it, she suffered a pretty bad

blow to her head which caused a serve amount of hemorrhaging

and swelling. Sara weeps to the floor screaming “No No! The

doctor then waits a moment to allow temperate grievance, then

he says to Sara 'We tried everything towards her last breath, she

went in peace. Sara rising up off her bended knee looks at the

doctor and says thank you. She mopes to a seat in the hospital

hall way. Distraught Sara sits as she comes to grip with all that

has transpired she gathers her thought's and reaches into her

shoulder bag she pulls out the heart shaped locket clutches onto

the necklace she mumbles to herself “ I Have Your Heart

grandma “I Have Your Heart.
