Anna POV
Where I am. All I can see is Black. No one is here.
Am I dead? I think I am because I am not in pain anymore.
But now the question is where am I? I walked forward in the never-ending darkness.
"Hello. Is anyone here" I asked to no one.
I heard someone chuckling from behind me and I turned around and saw that there was no one.
But still, I can hear the laugh of that thing.
"Who are you," I asked that thing.
"It's not important, child. The important thing is that you are in between death and life right now. You have to choose one. And remember you have to choose it quickly " that thing said
I can't see him but that's not important. Choose. I have to choose.
I heard cries and I looked ahead and saw a white curtain.
After some seconds, I could see that my babies were crying in my chest and I am dead.
I saw how their faces turned red by crying and my tears fell from my eyes after watching this.
How can I leave my children alone in that cruel world? No, I can't do this.
Because I know that after me no one can take care of my children.
That husband of mine will be busy with his new wife and my babies will be raised by a nanny.
I won't let that happen. I know that when I would get healed then he will again abuse me, beat me and rape me.
I dont care about that. For me, my babies are my priority. I will bear everything for them.
"I choose life. I want my babies" I said confidently.
That thing again chuckled and said "wise decision child. And remember everything would be alright. You have to face hell before entering heaven. Go, my child. My blessings are with you"
Before I could say anything, I fall into darkness and blacked out.

The first I heard when I woke up was the beeping of the machines.
I opened my eyes and looked at my surroundings.
I can see the white walls of the hospital and I looked at my left and saw that Maria was sleeping in the chair.
She was holding my hand and tears marks are covering her face. She was looking pale and ill.
I tried to sit up but flinched in pain and fell on the bed.
This action of mine woke Maria and she looked at me in surprise and shock
She pressed the button on the wall beside me. She squeezed my hand softly and kissed my head.
"Anna. You woke up. I waited for this moment for so long." She said and tears fell from her eyes.
I tried to speak but my throat was feeling like sandpaper and it's aching when I tried to say something.
A nurse came and she called the doctor. The nurse gave me a sip of water and told me to drink it slowly.
I drink it and cleared my throat and said "How long have I been here"
The nurse smiled at me said "You have been here for 1 week, sweety. "
One week, I have been here for 1 week. I gasped when I remembered my babies.
"Babies. Where are my babies? " I asked in a panic voice.
Maria calmed me down and said "they are at home with Jack. He is taking care of them. They are alright honey. Calm down."
I took deep breathes and finally calmed down. They are at home.
Doctor Williams came into the room and gave me a big smile. She walked toward me and kissed my head and said: "Welcome back Anna."
I give her a small smile and said "Thank you for saving me, Dr Williams"
"I told you many times to call me Rose. But you never listened to me" she said with a playful voice.
She checked me and told me that I am perfectly alright and can go home tomorrow.
I nodded eagerly because I am hell excited to meet the loves of my life. My babies.
She smiled at me and told me to take rest. I nodded and slept after taking my medicines.
I woke up again after hearing Maria talking to someone on the phone.
"Ya, she is alright....... She just woke up 2 hours ago......... She is sleeping right now.......... The doctor told us that we can take her home tomorrow......... You are coming........ No no, it's not that. I am happy that you are coming........ Ok Bye." She said on the phone
I think she is talking to my husband. He must be wondering how I am still alive.
I sighed and finally opened my eyes and look around and saw the time in the clock.
It was 10 in the night. A nurse came and she helped me to sit up and gave me my dinner.
