The Lost Word – Chapter 3
Deep, chocolatey brown eyes turned towards the water. Fragments of the plane floated along the surface as well as the bodies and body parts of those less fortunate. A few people had managed to drag themselves back to shore, but something kept telling Papi to look harder. Look farther. And right there, still roughly 100 meters from shore, was movement. Obviously exhausted arms were just barely breaking the surface, and water-darkened brown hair bobbed up and down with the waves. Papi looked to the sky again and started to wonder why religion was suddenly playing such a role in her life. ‘Then again,’ she supposed, ‘I did just survive a plane crash.’
Papi took her jacket and shoes off and laid them in the sand. She trotted into the water until it was up to her chest and then cupped her hands and kicked her feet, silently saying to the man above that the thing with the nun should be forgotten after this. "Hang on, lady. I’m on my way," Papi shouted, never once thinking that the woman she was trying to save couldn’t hear anything.
Helena Peabody
Tripping on something beneath her feet, Helena fell face-first into the sand with a cry. She could feel tiny, burning scrapes against her cheek, and that on top of everything else coming down on her right now made her feel like curling up and crying, but she couldn’t. She couldn’t allow herself any sort of rest, any sort of grief for what had happened to her and her still-missing children, and to all of those who had been horribly injured or killed in the accident.
She couldn’t allow herself to be human. Not yet.
Pushing herself to her feet, Helena started to run again.
"Is anyone hurt? I’m a doctor!"
The cry came from somewhere to her right, and it stopped Helena in her tracks.
A doctor?
She certainly didn’t need one, but …
Oh, bloody hell, it was worth a shot.
"Over here! Doctor, wait!" she screamed, switching directions and running off where she had heard the voice.
She was going to need all the help she could get in finding her children.
