Honeymoon tsunami

Me and my girlfriend had finally gotten married, we had a fall wedding and were honeymooning in Morocco. I remember her unpacking in the hotel, a green toothbrush, a black totoro blanket that she valued more than life and her best bathing suit. We were headed to the beach, she had on a blue two piece and I had on a dark blue almost black two piece. We were at the beach, our families were in town (not sure why they were included but they were) they were out for lunch or something. We were on the beach, she was swimming and I was laying on the sand with headphones in. I felt a tremble they grew to a shake under my body and sat up. I saw the water drawing out and my new wife sprinting towards me screaming for me to run, the water came back in as a massive wave. It knocked her forward and before I knew it my world went black. I woke up being dragged through debris, I felt a pain on my right side and watched the blood trail behind me while being pulled. I started crying out for my wife or parents but nobody came forward. Just a small group of local men dragging me to a overcrowded hospital. At some point in the hospital my beautiful blonde wife found me, she had a cast on her left leg and stitches on the left side of her jaw. I had been impaled on my right side by a large metal shard. She kept kissing my forehead saying “you’re doing great, we’re going to be fine, we can get Chinese when we get home” saying small things of comfort and making promises. I was being taken into surgery to remove the shard. She kissed my forehead and I kissed her hand weakly, we said our goodbyes as I was taken away to a dirty overcrowded operating room. I died on the operating table, I lost to much blood and never woke. I watched my wife frantically searching for me after a stranger was moved to the bed I was in previously. She limped through the crowds of mutilated people screaming my name.
