With the aftershocks finally over, a heavy silence set in. "Help me!"

Grace was buried under the wreckage and surrounded by darkness. Her breaths were getting shallower.

Lost in time, she was jolted back to reality by a child's cry. "Kendra! I want Kendra!" She came to with a start, shouting as loud as she could, "We're here... Please help!"

Her shouts drew the rescue team, who rushed to their location. They started clearing the rubble, and a thin ray of light pierced the darkness.

A glimmer of hope sparked in Grace's chest, but it was dashed when she heard the rescuers. "Mr. Kaufman, Dr.
