Chapter Fifteen

SITTING ON THE LEFT SIDE CHAIR of the ambulance, paramedic Nica had heard what Hannah said, "Okay. Alright. Just give me anything that my eyes could wear."

Concurrent while those words were still traveling to her auditory canal, she got blinded by a sharp light that came from the rearview mirror that instantly penetrated to her sense of sight.

Even though she had a feeling of peculiarity toward this girl, somewhere somehow, she understood why this schoolgirl was behaving like weird.

The only culprit for anything henceforth: her eyeglass would be forever unserviceable. Maybe if it was only the handle had been damaged, Hannah might be able to find a remedy to use it again. But the case of her eyeglass was that the glass itself had been disintegrated.

Knowing that her Corbusier eyeglass had retired before it got out of style, Hannah was already finding a replacement for it. For the driver was busy driving, she pertained about these two paramedics: Nica and Lara, if they had one.

After the appearance of uninvited shards of light could no longer be seen when the ambulance made an angle to change course to Xyrale High School, they instantly sought inside their bags if they had one. Not here.

A container that was made of thin materials used to carry personal things, per se: bags, was what placed on one of their sides respectively. Nica had her bag to her right, whereas Lara had it to her left. They opened every zipper that their bags could possibly have. To the biggest one-- up to the smallest one. Lara faced Nica with relief. She said with a low tone, "I have one."

To have a feeling like they needed to rush for a deadline was what they were racing against, Lara handed what the small zipper of her bag contained. Nica, who was at the nearest to Hannah, accepted the Aviator Sunglass that her co-paramedic luckily had. When she had it already, she approached Hannah.

On the other hand, Hannah, who currently was facing the front seat, was finally done with that single blink.

Those retractions of eyelids were supposed to just only last a couple of milliseconds, but that felt like, she had one hour of her life spent being there. For how pity you look at her before she blinked, after she did, she became another her.

One of her Personas. Of all the yellow door that she could open, the one that beyond laid a big rock with an ancient script written was what she destined to cross in order to be free. And because she already crossed the threshold of that yellow door, another self of her had been summoned.

The one who could be able to read what inscribed in that rock. She was...

HANNAH FORTEZA and her OTHER PERSONA: The EPIPHANY

Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

From a clear and innocent color of eyes, from blue, now being another her, the pigment of her irises had changed. It was now tinted by color gray, the same hue of rock beyond that yellow door.

The smile she performed after that blink instantly reflected the rearview mirror on the front seat. Even though the driver had focused the majority of his attention on the road, by the angle of how the mirror hung, he thought he'd seen blue eyes rather than a gray iris she had right now.

Maybe he just mistakenly believed himself that the girl all alone had gray colored eyes rather than the initial blue pigment he perceived. And if that's the case, he should consult already an optometrist for scientifically based information of why he was seeing things that weren't the way how he saw them at the second time.

Although he was just an ambulance driver, the person's life that hung in between life and death, also hung for him. For how fast he should arrive at the hospital that ordered him, that was also how safe he was with their patient when he came back with them. Any abnormality he saw to himself must be prevented before it became too late.

What concerned him aside with his life, was that, when he drove the ambulance, he was with his crew. He was at all times would be held accountable if something went wrong that he ought to have control. He should become responsible at all times.

These two paramedics currently onboard with him in this vehicle reminded him with that fortitude. The moment he bumped this schoolgirl, instead of reminding him that it would be his fault from here on, they immediately slipped down to do their job. They didn't just know how they inspired Luke Barnabe, the driver of this ambulance. Their high school classmate.

From the back of the glass pane that separated the driver seat and where the patient had been taken care of, Hannah turned her back to it. Nica who was currently shocked by the sudden turning around of Hannah, she dropped the sunglass.

The distance that the aviator sunglass traveled from the hand of Nica to the nearest surface it landed, seemed to be a half of a ruler. That was a little over of six inches tall that gladly didn't imply damage as what happened to the recently retired Corbusier eyeglass that instantly forfeited its remaining economic life.

As the vehicle was still in advancement, and as the terrain became steep, the current of force slid the sunglass back to its owner, Lara. Though the scenario was like hand to hand handling, what happened was that 'just upon her pace' mounting. While Lara was on it, Hannah turned toward the right window.

Though they hadn't been informed about the new hue for her eyes, not until Lara had the eye protection for sun apparatus. They turned as they heard her spoke. "Did you know what will happen after I will reveal what will happen?" with her current stance, she made the two paramedics turned all of their hundred percent of attention.

Though they didn't know what she was talking all about, there was a part of them that understood what she said. While she handed back the aviator sunglass to Nica, Lara asked, "What will happen?"

While her gaze at the sun that's beyond the glass window was still, Hannah replied, "Will happen." When the time Nica had the sunglass, she held it firm. Giving the chance of dropping it, a would-not-happen again. She clarified, "What exactly?"

The vehicle started to slope down its speed as it approached the gate, Hannah, not breaking a stare at the sun, said, "After this sedan stop, while its wheels are about to be stationed at four different points on the ground, the thing I pertained will happen."

"What exactly will happen?" Lara again, asked the same question only that she constructed it explicitly. Just as Hannah was about to answer,  the Ambulance stopped. While she felt that the vehicle was slowly held stable to the ground, she faced them with thrills and delights and revealed, "An earthquake."
