La Muerta
by George







Got to the place at 9:55 P.M. after receiving a report que estaba una mujer muerta…

Found her lying there with no signs of life (wink).

Fell down on my knees and immediately got to work to see if I could revive her…

Applied the revival technique knowing that with a little bit of steady pressure

life signs would soon begin to appear…

Wait…

Slight as it was it was the sign I was waiting for…I intensified the steady pressure…

Some more stirrings

Wait…

Some vocal signs bordering on speech could be detected …

Wait…

Some tensioning of the muscles…

AAAAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She now seems relaxed and the rapid breathing…is back to normal…

La muerta is not muerta anymore.
