Frozen in Time
It's a gloomy dawn in a normal New York apartment, a beautiful young lady is sleeping beside a ruggedly handsome man, just as a storm starting outside, a sharp pain in the woman's lower abdomen jolts her awake, she struggles to sit on the bed but barely get her back a little straighter from the blinding pain. There's wetness between her thighs. When she looks down she finds blood, as her mind goes blank, the pain in her abdomen recedes. There's a ringing in her ear, her eyes are seeing blood but her brain refuses to process the reason. She kept staring at her red-ed thighs and the blooded pool on her bedspread that keeps getting bigger. Her throat tightens, it's getting harder to breath, she can't even tell her husband to help. She hears an ear-shattering wail full of pain, she can't define the source but then she realizes that the scream is in her head because It doesn't seem to end. The wheels in her head starts to move lazily, tears streaming down her face just as the storm gets fiercer outside. She keeps staring at her unborn baby. The spreading blood over her bedspread, everything else cease to exist, only her silent anguished scream and the pool of blood. Frozen in Time.
