April 6th

Life so far was going by in a daze. Really I don’t know where to start. Truthfully we didn’t know what was going on with her. She had been sleep for most of the day. Hardly even speak or drinking anything. The only time I saw her up was when she had to rush to the bathroom to throw up. Not a pretty sight to see. Ruby on the other hand was doing fairly well. Her birthday was going to start soon but even that didn’t make the day feel any better. I wanted my best friend back. Not only that, I wanted my wife back. I kept calling the doctor to see if there was anything they could find. All I got was a voice called back saying they were busy. It was really annoying. Thankfully I had a friend still….Rick. I still glad he was still around. I didn’t know what to do without him. He truly is a great friend to have.

I was downstairs dealing with my emotions. Rick there trying to help me. Ruby started to cry so I went upstairs and took care of her. I knew something was very wrong. Is my wife going to die? That thought seem to hang in my head for a while longer. My thoughts thinking so badly that I couldn’t even know what to do. Rick told me I need to go out. He would not let me stay in the house. I decided I would try and see the doctor. At least see if they found anything.

I took the car and headed out. I rush as fast as I could to the hospital. I parked the car and headed inside. I asked the lady at the desk if I could see the doctor. I didn’t tell her I wasn’t sick. She gladly make me wait in the waiting room. When the doctor came out, he was bit surprise to see me but knowing I wouldn’t stop until he tell me something, he let me in his office. We spend a good few hours in his office. I asked many question of how she got the bite to the point if my wife would still be alive. He asked most of the questions but others he couldn’t tell me just yet. He told me that he was check out the blood to see if something happening with her system. He thought the bite could be from a snaked but even he wasn’t 100% sure if that was right. After feeling a little better, I went to the park. There I listen to the sounds of birds and thought about my wife. It was really getting hard. I started to cry thinking my life would be over if anything happen to her.

Chris was really having a hard time about how Scarlet was doing. She would be in and out to the restroom. She won’t talk or even tell us what was going on. I didn’t blame her for not feeling well. She been sleeping for the past two days. I spend a lot of time trying to get Chris to feel better. I was at the point where he just need to get out of the house. I wasn’t trying to be mean about it but I knew in my heart that he need a break. He was going ragged thinking of her all the time. I sure would be doing the same if I was in his shoes. Still he left going out to do whatever he wanted to know. He told me that he would see the doctor to find some stuff out. Then he would be at the park for a little while. It was fine with me. I took care of little Ruby. Her birthday will be tomorrow but I spend all the time with her. I just hope Scarlet was well enough to be there for her.

I headed outside to the garden. I place Ruby softly on a blanket next to me that way I could keep watch of her. I watered the plants and took care of some weeding. I even got time to enjoy the fresh air while holding Ruby. Ruby is a sweet little girl. She seem to have a heart of pure gold. I really enjoy being close to her. She seem to know she was safe and fall softly to sleep in my arms. I place her back in the crib. Decided to see how Scarlet was doing. Boy was I in of a shock of my life. I stood there not knowing what to do. I gave Chris a call and he came over as fast as he could.

Chris stood there as well not sure what to do. We just watch as Scarlet a really loud scream. It was like someone punching you over and over again until you couldn’t take it anymore. We were scared and worried that she was about to die. Chris called the doctors and felt his sadness flow into me. That I too started to cry a little.

~~

I was very weak this past two days. I couldn’t talk or tell Chris I loved him. I couldn’t thanked Rick a million times over for all the stuff he done for us. I was sick. Really sick. Sicker then I ever thought I could get sick. I was always in the bathroom. Just throwing up and feeling like my life was out of me. I felt my body shake and curl up like a ball. I wanted to cry. I just wanted to die but in my heart I didn’t want too. I felt so weird. It felt like my body was dying but yet I was still alive. How could that happen? I honestly didn’t know. I couldn’t even hold Ruby without feel weak or tired. Something didn’t feel right. I just slept it off hoping things would get better soon but it didn’t.

I felt Chris and Rick coming in and out of my room. Then I got up real fast. No…not to throw up but I stood with a lot of pain flowing in my veins. Chris called the doctor. Rick stood there with tearful eyes. Chris then cried as well. I didn’t know what else to do because the pain was too much for me to handle. I just screamed in pain before I felt myself be lifted in the air. I am going to die and go to heaven? All I felt was rush faster then you could say Hello and Goodbye. Next thing I knew was my teeth felt really weird. Chris and Rick fast were like they say a ghost.

I somehow managed to get into the bathroom and look into the mirror. What I saw was not me? What I saw looked like a sick monster ready to pounce out and get me? No. This…This can’t be mean. It just…can’t be me but it was me. It was me looking in the mirror. Scared, confused and not well. My skin was pale. Paler then I thought would be and my eyes, well they were dark red eyes I ever saw that gave almost an evil glow. I wanted to scream but I force myself not too. All I could do was stare. All I knew was….was that I am now a Vampire.
