THE BATTLEFIELD OF LOVE
Part 52's. Tornado Warning!
"Jen, I'm gonna escort that immune patient to the CDC headquarters in Atlanta." Andrew arrived and gave me a new command from the command room, "I have to take him to Will Roger Oklahoma base and fly him to Atlanta by military transport. Tell him to get ready now."
"Ohh, fine. He helped us clean the ward. I'll tell him." I'll go in and tell the guy named Simon."
He immediately prepared his bag. That's all we bring with us in this chaotic time. One bag, to survive and hope the situation can become normal.
"As long as I'm gone don't relax the vigilance. This area is at least a safe zone. There may be an infection you don't know about." He saw me while waiting for Simon.
"Yes. Take it easy, .. I'll take care of myself." Andrew is always attentive, I'm happy to be noticed like this. It feels like I have a sister. But sometimes I'm afraid he thinks of me more than that, he knows I'm waiting for Fred, who I haven't heard from in months.
Sometimes I'm so afraid I don't hear from her anymore. But if he's alive why he can't find his way home all these months. The world is chaotic, but El Paso is at least one of the safest shelter towns on the mainland. And with the pockets of the safe city already established at least he could find a way back but why didn't he come back. Is it true that my months of hope are nonsense.
Simon who was ready, came straight to the triage.
"Sir, I'm ready." Simon reports to Andrew.
"Okay, let's go." Andrew did not wait long to leave. "I think I'm not long for Jen, depending on the transportation that took us." Simon is an important subject. If he can be immune, scientists may find a way to awaken absolute immunity to this terrible parasite.
While Andrew was away all afternoon we were busy dealing with the complaints of some refugees, we were the only functioning health location in Henryetta. Others have been displaced or are lost to infect.
"Doctor James? Why doesn't your face look so good?" He headed straight towards me with quick steps.
"What tornado watch is ejected into the central region. We should get ready if things get worse." A tornado watch is issued if the meteorological agency detects potential tornadoes. Oklahoma is a region with constant tornado disruption. "Pick up the important drugs first." The sky was dark, I was always afraid of tornadoes.
"Gosh, ..." We all quickly secure equipment from windows that may break, divide tasks into wards, secure drugs and essential equipment into the main building. I hope this container can survive not flying in the sky. If there were not many losses we suffered.
"Alright, you guys share the task of making sure the drugs and essential equipment are safe." Everyone was getting ready while the sky looked as dark as possible. The wind started blowing erratically.
"The "underground shelter can only accommodate 100 people if compacted. The main command building can safely accommodate the rest." We hope it's just rain.
But hope is hope, the sky is greenish.
"Tornadoes are coming.the ceiling is already green." Some people who were native to this region said those horrible words. Some of them ran to the shelter. Suddenly the wind calmed down. My hair stood up immediately.
"Now!" There was no hope because suddenly a warning siren appeared. TORNADO WARNING. Leave the open area, get into the shelter! Tornadoes have already touched the ground around this region.
"To the shelter now!" James gave the order. We help patients walk to a shelter located 200 meters away. I don't know where the debris fell from. There's a tornado system nearby. Where not.
And the one still lying in a wheelchair. Chaotic atmosphere. Everyone packed themselves into the shelter.
I hope we don't accept any consequences. Don't cross, please don't cross here.
