Description
Isaac felt the warm, familiar hand of someone he loved squeezing his. He could hear their soft voices talking to him. He was scared and in so much pain, sometimes it was hard to think of anything else. He knew he had had been getting sleepier lately. As he lay there he remembered all the wonderful happy memories he had hidden away in his head, maybe his life had been short but at least it had been filled with love not everybody had that.
He remembered how excited he had been when his sister was born. she was so small and delicate. He had been scared to hold and for a while he had just stood and gazed at her perfect little face. When she was bigger he would spend hours playing her favourite games and making up long exciting stories while she sat enthralled hanging on to her big brother’s every word.
He couldn’t open his eyes now, they were just so heavy.
He remembered the last time he was outside , they had taken him in a wheelchair to that beautiful garden. A narrow winding path followed a tiny stream to the bottom, surrounded by so many amazing colours and smells. He hadn’t wanted to leave. That night he had gazed out of his window, the sky had been unusually clear and he could see the hundreds upon thousands of stars, one particularly bright one had stood out to him , shining down on his bed like a guardian angel.
His breathe was getting quicker now.
He began to remember the day he met his best friend. It was on his first day at school, He’d had the horrible nervous feeling in his chest like waiting for the dentist. He had clung to his mummy‘s leg but eventually she had had to leave and he had stood shyly by himself watching the other louder children until Sam had timidly crept up to him and said hello. After that they were inseparable, he hoped he wouldn’t be too sad without him.
It was hard to concentrate on the voices now, they seemed to be getting fainter like he was hearing them far away down a long tunnel .
Then he remembered the day he had built that amazing, enormous sandcastle, how proud he had been that they had built it together. He recalled how clear the sea had been and how the sun made it glisten like millions of diamonds.
It was almost time to go now, he could feel it, he hoped his mum and his dad and his sister would be okay, that’d they’d look after each other and laugh at the happy memories they had of all of them together, that his friends would remember his forever.
He thought back to his first pet, Rosie, A tiny puppy that he had played with and cared for. Her fur had felt like silk against his face, he remembered the intense sadness he had felt when Rosie had died.
Now it was time for him to go, he was scared he tried desperately to speak, to say goodbye and tell his family that he would miss them but it was too hard, he just didn’t have the energy anymore.
Finally he took his last shaky breath and was immersed in darkness. But he could see a light, a tiny light, it was growing, coming ever closer and from it came the most beautiful and pure creature he had ever seen. A perfect yet ancient face, eyes that looked inside a person and saw everything and wing, immense and powerful. Slowly the angel bent over to kiss him and Isaac felt all the pain he had suffered slipping away. He was released from the indignity and the hurting of the past few months. The angel extended one white slender hand and Isaac took it so he could move on to the next place, where his beloved Rosie was waiting patiently for him.
