Death

Today was a good day for James. It was his birthday, which he always celebrated with his mom and dad and the rest of his family, his two older sisters, who loved him a lot, and his old grandma, who was in her 70s; every when they were busy, they would take the day off to celebrate with him. It was around 2 pm when James saw his phone ringing.
[Hi, Mom.]
(Hello, sweetheart. How is School going?)
[School was great, but how was your day?]
(my day was good, thanks for asking, son.)
(are you on your way home yet?)
[I was a little busy with something; I might be a little late, Mom.]
(James, did you forget what day today is?)
[forget, what did I forget Mom?]
(today is your birthday, so make sure you come home. We'll be waiting for you.)
[Oh, I remember I'll be there, Mom, don't worry.]
(ok, byeOks byen, yo. Seeer.)
[bye, Mom loves you.]
says James before hanging the phone up. If Mom hadn't reminded me, I would have forgotten today was my birthday.
(ding..ding) James phone rang. James walked around the School to get to the parking lot in his car and looked at his phone to see who the text was from.
(Happy birthday, little brother). James saw a message from his two older siblings.[thank you, guy.] James replies to the message and continues to walk to his car.

James says I should get going, driving off to his birthday party. While driving from the corner of my car, I saw an old lady crossing the road. She looked like she couldn't see or hear anything happening, including the incoming truck coming at full speed. At that moment, something takes over James. He drove his car to the incoming truck, and everything went blank until he heard people screaming to call 911. I already did, he could hear someone say.

At that moment, Many people surrounded the area, telling him to stay awake and that the ambulance was coming. James, who felt like he would not make it, asked those people around him in a low voice [did I save the old lady that passed out in front of my car?] yes, son, you did save her. She is right next to you. That's good, says James to those around. At that moment, I could hear someone saying someone called an ambulance already. I don't think he will make it; he could hear them speak. Thank you, son; he could hear the old lady say, please stay with us. The ambulance is coming; don't give up, you can make it.

As the light dims from James, he whispers I hope my family doesn't miss me much. As the voices of those around him slowly fade, a massive silence falls over him. James slowly sinks into the void of nothingness.

(granted my child) say a voice that nobody can seem to hear.
