The restaurant was full with customers today, Emma was having a hard time getting the orders correctly without getting it all mixed up, after giving the orders to Eric who was in charge of the kitchen she decided to rest for awhile.

"Looks like someone is worked up today" Sarah said while coming towards her, Sarah had been Emma's friend for a year and half

"Tell me about it" Emma replied while wiping the sweat from her face

"It seems like everyone decided to eat out today all of a sudden"

"At least its best for business" Sarah said and they both laughed.

They turned towards the direction of the window after hearing the sounds of sirens

"Isn't that the cops?" Emma asked

"I wonder what's up this time" Sarah replied

"Why don't we go check it out?"

So they both walked back into the restaurant and noticed two police officers walk into the restaurant asking for someone but they couldn't hear who it was and then the manager came out of his office to meet them.

While they talked, he manager points towards their direction, they were both shocked and wondered why he was pointing to them but they didn't show it, the officers said a thank you and started towards them

"Good day, are you Emma Russell " they asked

"I am, how may I help you?"

"A Mercedes car was hit by a truck about an hour ago and on identifying the victims, we found their phones and ID with their names on it and looking through their contacts on their phones we came across your text where you were wishing them a safe trip earlier today, so being the last person who contacted them and having the same surname we realized you were a relative".

Emma was already in tears and struggling internally not to believe what she was hearing right now

"So what are you trying to say?" she asked already frustrated

"We are sorry ma'am, the couple died on the spot but the little boy survived and was rushed to the hospital and he's in a critical condition"

Emma couldn't believe her ears but her body was already failing her terribly, because she could hardly even hear what the police officer was saying anymore and then darkness was the only thing Emma could see.
