How do I survive

" Take her to the hospital fast", some of the passerbys yelled. "Be fast or she might not make it".

Her family is in that car, some of you could please go and check in the car if any of them survived it.

I already checked, the father is still alive but he is barely breathing and there was another female figure but she could not make it.

okay then, let's take him to the hospital,even though I don't think that he might make, it will give him a chance to last his last words to his daughter .

....

When I woke up, I was in the hospital and four nurses surrounded me.

I closed my eyes because everywhere was too bright. I tried to remember what had happened and how I got to the hospital.

I remember the accident and my family .I immediately started crying, where is my family where where is my dad my mom my sister's please take me to them I said I got off my bed and begged the nurses to take me back to my family, what was their fault?

The nurses stayed silent and looked at me with pity before a woman who's name was Nora (also my nanny)came in and said that" I'm sorry Tina, I can't tell you now" . "Tell me where is my family?" I yelled

Your sister is in the morgue. I broke down, my mom had lost another child and I had lost my only sister ,she was going to cry her eyes out.

We could not find your mom's body, she might have been thrown into the cliff. Stop, I yelled. Stop saying nonsense, You don't want my dad to hear you. My mom is alive, you all should go and find her instead of telling me that she's dead.

Doctor, her father is awake, I heard a nurse say from the door.I ran out, followed by the doctor. I quickly rushed to my father's ward even though I could still feel some pain on my leg.

I met him, he's eyes were bloodshot from crying. Dad, I whispered dad,the doctor told me that you broke your spinal cord and you can't walk again. Dad, I want you to know that I love you in any state that you are and you don't need to feel like a burden because I'll take care of you. No darling ,you can't take care of me, I can feel my time is near.Dad please, you're the only one I have now please don't leave me this world is too wicked.I said as tears rolled down my eyes.

My princess he said with a crooky voice ,my princess, daddy always loves you and will always love you.

My only regrets is that I will be leaving you alone in this world and I could not save your mother or your sister for you but, it is not in my hands so I have assigned your nanny Nora who is also your mother's best friend to take care of you.

Don't forget that your dad will always love you and with that final sentence, he closed these eyes and breathered its last. Dad ,Dad,please wake up.Dad please no, Dad please don't leave me .

I screamed, rolled, and cried. I did not let anyone console me. Nora picked me up and took me to the bed. I kept pinching myself to make sure that I was not dreaming,I really wanted to wake up.

I kept on crying when my white pet cat with the name Alvia ran up to me and jumped on me.

I hugged it tightly as it was my only family member that was still alive, and I didn't want her to leave me to.

I was angry at all my family for leaving me in this wicked world even though it wasn't their fault.

I was discharged after a week and I took my nanny Nora with me to the house and she became my new mother.

.....

On Sunday

We commits the souls of Mrs and Mr Targot and Lisa Targot into the hands of God that they shall be granted enternal peace. Amen.

The referend father completed and the caskets where laid into the ground. At that sight, I couldn't help but start crying. I could not hold myself anymore so, I burst out crying.

Nora tried to comfort me, but I couldn't stop crying. I cried myself to sleep every night and I could not accept that I was all alone in this world I struggled with my life because I didn't want to accept my fate.

.....,.....

Some months after the funeral of my parents and Lisa, my uncle James came with our family lawyer and said that he needed to discuss something very important.

He told me that my father didn't have enough time to leave a will as he died prematurely and since I wasn't up to 20 years yet he would be taking over all my father's businesses, assets and Company.

I laughed hysterically because I couldn't understand since I was 18 years why I couldn't take over my family as I was a full grown adult but he made up excuses and showed me some papers which stated that only if I was 20 years then I could take over my Dad's business and company.

I went to court for legal support but it turns out that they were already bribed and the spoke in favour of James.

I was also giving a restraining order not to be ever seen interfering with uncle James and the business matters.

Uncle James literally stole my father's property and that I could not do anything about it.

I was left with Nora who was to take care of me and a Court notice which only granted me a sum of 10,000 dollars a month.

I agree,that is a big sum but for a person who has always lived in luxury for 18 good years of her life and also did not know anything about money management,it was almost useless, I get more than that sum in a day, but I couldn't say anything.

So, my life of struggling had began. Soon after ,uncle James wife actually started maltreating me and Nora.

She would send us on countless errands without even giving us a proper meal or even a thank you.

I was like how dare she treats us like this in my own father's house but I knew that there was nothing I could do about it since that the we have already gone to court which had rejected us and I didn't have any money or contacts as all my friends disappeared when they heard of the bad news.

We decided to move out to Nora's apartment and then that was how we started life as a commoner.

.....

The investigation on my family's accidents was also dropped as I didn't have enough money to continue even though I did not actually think that it was a business rival that did that ,I thought it was somebody from inside my family since nobody actually knew that we were traveling to the village and my only suspect was uncle James.

But as usual I did not have any proof so I could not even file a complaint against him,Because he now had vast contacts. Even though I found proof against him, I couldn't do anything.
