290–She Pushed My Daughter
Madeline:
When I ran out, I saw a devastating sight. Elara and Bodhi were on the ground, but Bodhi looked asleep, as if he had simply fallen into a slumber. Elara was sitting right next to him, crying, while Yuvonne stood at the edge, with Gina nowhere in sight. But I could still hear her voice.
Baxter reached the edge of the cliff first, and I came up behind him.
“I was trying to help,” As I tried to move closer, Yuvonne immediately started explaining herself to Baxter, telling him why she was hunched over the edge.
That was when I realized Gina was hanging there on her own, calling out to us. I did not want to imagine what would have happened if we had been even a little late. She was just a child. She could have let go at any moment.
My heart stopped. Then I turned and grabbed Yuvonne by the arm, pulling her away from the edge.
“What the hell is wrong with you? You could not pull her up?” I screamed at her furiously that she thought a child could hold on for that long.
“No, I was offering help, but she was not taking my hand,” Yuvonne replied quickly, trying to explain herself.
I did not have time to deal with her. I turned to Bodhi and lifted him into my arms, trying to wake him up.
I started to wake up my son, gently tapping his cheek and warming his body, while Baxter managed to pull Gina up and hugged her tightly. After he let her go, she ran toward me, and Baxter took Bodhi from my arms. I was in a state where I could not even cry. I was too stunned and upset to react.
“Baxter, he is not waking up,” I said, my lips shivering. Both my kids, Elara and Gina, were in my arms as I hugged them while Baxter carried Bodhi and started to run toward the cabin.
I carried my two daughters and went after him. Once we were in the living room and Baxter put Bodhi down on the couch, he started tapping his cheeks again.
“You have to wake him up.”
I do not know what happened to Baxter, but he suddenly stepped away from Bodhi and turned to me instead, taking Elara and Gina from my arms. I sat next to Bodhi and cupped both his cheeks with my hands.
“Wake up, Bodhi. Please wake up,” I pleaded.
As soon as I said that, I noticed him starting to wake up in the same way as before. He yawned first, then stretched, and once he was fully awake, he smiled at me.
“Mummy, is it morning?” he asked, probably forgetting that it was already morning and that he had passed out earlier.
I quickly hugged him, and after I comforted him, Baxter went ahead to spend time with Bodhi. At the same time, I noticed Gina glaring at Yuvonne. I had no idea when Yuvonne came inside. She had brought her own bags as well.
“Why did you push me?” Gina suddenly yelled at Yuvonne, stopping everything around us.
Both Baxter and I went silent before turning toward the commotion. It was Gina facing Yuvonne, making sure she kept some distance from her. Yuvonne looked at me, then at Baxter, and started shaking her head.
“I did not push you,” she replied, pointing at her chest. “Baby, you slipped,” Yuvonne added.

290–She Pushed My Daughter
At that moment, my heart skipped a beat.
“You pushed her?” I asked Yutonne, pointing at Gina.

“No, I swear I did not, Baxter. I promise I did not push her,” Yuvonne insisted. “She was over there with the children. When Bodhi fell down, they both went there, and Gina slipped. I swear I am not lying”
Yuvonne began to stutter, struggling to form full sentences, and that started to ring alarms in my head. I turned to glare at Baxter before facing her again.
“You stay away from my children. Do you hear me?” I screamed at her.
