625 ON THEIR WAY

Hope felt a warm light that streamed across her closed eyelids.But not bright enough to hurt her eyes, as another spark danced on her left hand. 

Hope groaned softly when sudden pain shot through her neck, tears pooled in her eyes. It hurt so much…

Hope tried to raise her hand to touch her neck, but someone held her gently and a soft voice whispered in her ears. 

"Ssstt, it's okay Hope, you are okay…" 

Hope whimpered faintly. Her neck hurts. 

Then, Hope felt there was something cool, and wet pressed against her throbbing neck.It gave a little comfort, but she couldn't help but cry even though she didn't open her eyes. It hurt so much. Hope sobbed. 

"It is okay, Hope, calm down, don't cry…" though his voice sounded gentle, but it laced with panic when he shouted to the door. "SEREFINA!"
