Chapter 7 - THE DEATH

''don't forget about me , i love you ....''

''what the hell are you are saying , grace '' i asked as tears were running down my face

by the time i asked her , she lost consciousness . i yelled to the people 

''WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR , CALL THE AMBULANCE''

i looked at her again . she looked almost dead . blood was still pooling around her head. to stop the blood , i had to put pressure 

i acted as fast as i could . i placed her head over my lap and pressed the wound with a cloth i found from her bag . i yelled to others who were staring 

''CALL SOMEONE ALREADY , SHE'S DYING''

someone had already called the ambulance minutes ago . i looked at the time .

five minutes ,even if she was making it out she would have permanent brain damage . they taught us that in high school .

i saw the red and blue lights after a while . they reached over graces body fast . i helped them assist her to the stretcher and i jumped inside the ambulance as the vehicle started .

i looked at grace properly . why does she look dead? please don't die , i can't live without you. you are my everything . i would give my life for you

we reached the hospital pretty fast and they took her to the emergency room . i waited outside while they got us the news . i called grace's mother to tell her what had happened

[''hello,who is this'']

''its jayla , auntie''

[''oh jayla darling why did you call'']

 ''its grace , she got into an accident''

[''WHAT HAPPENED ? IS SHE OKAY '']

''i'll tell you everything , just come at uhh amberwood hospital ''

[''i'm coming fast , wait for me'']

she came in about 5 minutes . i told her what happened . she looked shocked but hoped grace was fine . after waiting about 5 hours . the nurse finally came out and told us the news

''she is unconscious , but she has 10% of surviving ''

that made me even more nervous . grace's mom asked me to go home

''go home darling, you look very tired''

''no aunty , i won't leave grace'' i said worriedly

''i'll call you if we get more news okay darling ''she looked at me reassuringly

''okay , don't forget to call''i said as i left the hospital

 i returned to my hotel with a heavy daze . i was surprised to see my mother in my hotel sitting like a boss queen on the rolling chair.

''hello jayla ''

''mom, what are you doing here ''

''i heard something happened to grace''

this was weird . mom has always hated grace , why would she suddenly care about her . she literally called grace a sore loser on the stage one time . something is suspicious about her.

''why do you want to know about grace?''

''see jayla , to do good business we must betray some people '' she said with mysterious vibe 

''wha-what are you trying to say''i stuttered

''see , grace has a high position in our business perhaps you could take her position '' said mom

''n-no , she's my frickin best friend ''

''as i said , sometimes you need to betray people to go forward''she said with a evil smirk

''mom, you do know that i have my own company and i just joined yours as a side job for fun . i have my own money why would i need grace's ''

''well for business , financial help and practice for bigger company's in the future''

''i don't care what you say , i am not betraying grace ''

''come on jayla , just do this simple thing ''

i looked at her with hatred in my eyes . i pointed at the door and signaled her to get out. oh god! what has this woman become?

she reluctantly got out of my hotel room . she closed the doorwhen she left .

i was so tired today . today was so stressful . as i lay down in bed i heard a voice call ring

voice call grace's mom

ringing

i took the call and i heard a few sobs then she finally said

[grace ] i heard a few sobs [ grace , she ]

''what happened to her , is she okay?''

[jayla , grace passed away ] she said with a few sobs

i dropped the phone in shock .

no , this can't be ! she died . no , i can't believe that . she can't be dead 

i messed up my hair in frustration while tears were running down my face . i slowly slid down the wall .

i killed my best friend the one i can't live without . what have i done? . i can't face life without her . without her it's like breathing with no air .

i screamed and cried out loud with tears flowing like a river on my cheek . how can this happen?i killed my own best friend .

what have i done?
