I walk in the door, and see patients lying in the waiting room. So many of them. Good thing I start my job today, because the other doctors will need all the help they can get to heal everyone before we evacuate this ruined planet.

I sign in at the desk and get to work. My first job is to ask everyone what their injuries are, so we can help the worst ones first. I take the list to a senior doctor, and she calls out a few names. Then she sends me to Mr. Aaron.

I check over each of his patients and clean them up, then I fetch the supplies we need and bring them to him.

By the end of the day, him and I have helped over thirty patients ourselves, and their are many more doctors here. I am exhausted, physically and emotionally. There were so many hurt people, ranging from toddlers to seniors. Thankfully there was only one death, but I wish there had been none.

It was a child. A little boy, only about five. His name was Vincent, and he was a sweet little boy. He reminded me of my younger brother. He died with his family around him, but that’s not very comforting.

My shift ends in a few minutes, so I help Mr. Aaron and clean up a little. Then I go home. I will continue my work at eight tomorrow, because there are still patients coming.

As I fall asleep I think of my brother, who’s currently in the hospital with a concussion. He’s getting better, but it seems to be taking so long. This disaster has done so much, demolished so many houses and ruined so many lives. And I know that tonight, I will have nightmares about it, as I have the past few nights.

Once everyone is ready, we will be evacuating. There are people already leaving. It’s all the Moon’s fault. It crashed into the earth, causing fires and earthquakes everywhere. This planet is not livable any longer. And to think I used to look up at the moon and thank it for being there. I hate the moon now. It has caused all this hurt and anguish. Everyone will probably always wonder why and how this happened. I know why, and I feel so guilty for not telling anyone, but it’s for the best.

This all happened because of my Mother.
