Amy had been rarely this happy she had moved to this beautiful year a little more than half a year ago. The time together with her friends had become a little less in the last time, but it was difficult to meet each other with little kids. That's why she was glad that this evening they would eat together. They sad together on the kitchen table and talked about their experiences in child raising, as Amy saw to big eyes which starred at her from the stairs. "Marie can't you sleep?" she asked her daughter lovingly. The little girl nodded and Sheldon who had turned around jumped up right away and picked her up. "Then I'm gonna make you a warm milk and then you gonna get back to bed what do you mean?" he said and placed Marie on the counter. "Yeah", she said excited and looked how Sheldon warmed the milk, poured it into a coup and added some honey. Then he took the coup in his hand and picked Marie up again. Amy found that Marie was too old with six years to be carried around but Sheldon thought differently. Sheldon whispered something into Marie's ear. The girl smiled, waved at the grownups and whished a good night. "Sheldon is really a good father", said Penny as he went upstairs. "Yes he is", Amy agreed and played with her wedding ring. She had been so happy when Sheldon had asked her to marry him. The friends talked on as the where interrupted suddenly by a loud rumbling from the living room. Amy jumped up and wanted to go through the swing door, but what she saw let her freeze in the door frame. Sheldon laid slumped at the end of the stairs. "Sheldon", cried Amy. Leonard pushed Amy aside and went into the living room and checked the pulse of his best friend. He looked up the other where standing in the living room by now. Penny was holding Amy, which had started to cry, in her arms. "Howard call the emergency", Leonard said strictly. Howard noted and graped his smartphone from his pocket and called 911. Raj had also emerged to the motionless Sheldon. "And?" he asked Leonard. "He still got a weak pulse, I hope the emergency is fast enough to help him", he answered in a whisper.
Twenty minutes later was the group sitting in the waiting room of the sacret heart hospital. Amy had driven with the emergency but the doctors didn't allow her to go into the examination room. Leonard and Penny, as godparents, had graped Marie and George and came after her. George was sleeping in his stroller and Marie curled on Penny's lap. Amy walked up and down nervous, Leonard who was irritated by that stood up and graped her by the shoulder. "Amy calm down. They gonna put Sheldon back together", he tried to calm Amy down. In this moment the proceeding doctor came from the examination room. "Mrs. Cooper", he called Amy. Leonard noted at Amy encouraging and she went to the doctor. "How does it look doctor?" Amy asked. "Your husband suffered from a cordial infarct and on the way here his heart stopped several times. We tried everything but we couldn't do anything. He passed away some minutes ago I'm sorry", the doctor explained and he really looked battered especially as his gaze went to the two small kids. Amy clapped her hand in front of her mouth. How should she explain this to Marie and George. Of course George with his six months was too young to tell him, but she would have to tell it to Marie and in a few years George would surely ask about his father. "Can I see him?" Amy asked with choked voice. "Of course", said the doctor and showed her the way. Sheldon was laying on one of the hospital beds, his chest was bare and some lose cables where attached to it. The monitor beside the bed was turned out. If all of this hadn't been you could think that he was sleeping. Amy took a chair and sit beside the bed and took Sheldon's hand. "Ah Sheldon why did you have to leave me?" she asked and tears dropped from her cheeks. "I promise you I will take good care for your princess and your little boy", she said determined and whipped her tears away and gave Sheldon a kiss on the forehead. Amy had to be strong for herself and for her children.
"Mommy!" Marie cried unpantetly and jumped on her bed. Amy stood on the door and shook her head, why did she have to be so hyper. Amy graped her daughter and laid her on the bed and covered her. "Mommy when does Daddy come?" Of course this question would come, then since Marie was born, she had been a father child. Sheldon had always brought her to bed unless he was working late. "Marie", Amy said and took a sit on the edge of the bed. "Your Daddy want come anymore." "What? Why?" Maria asked shocked and tears started to gather in her eyes. "Shh", made Amy and crossed her cheek southing. "Your daddy want come because he is in heaven now he went there yesterday evening", Amy explained her daughter. Now the tears started to flow and Marie started to cry bitterly. Amy took her into her arms and tried to calm her down. It would be hard to understand to full meaning of Amy's words but Marie was extremely smart she would get through it.
About a week later was the funeral. Sheldon's family came from Texas. Amy was sad for Mary then no mother should carry their child to the grave and although Missy and Sheldon hadn't got along all the time she was crushed to have lost her twin brother. Though Sheldon had been a weirdo where there a lot of guests to pay their respect. All people told Amy and the rest of the family their pity and the talks who were speaked at Sheldon's grave where appropriated but also funny. Like Leonard who told about their trip to the sperm bank or Penny who told about how she and Sheldon went through this questions who are supposed to make you fall in love. Through all this sad things there was something what put a smile on Amy's face. Killian the boy from next door, whit his parents Amy and Sheldon had become good friends since they moved here, had stepped beside Marie which was crying, while the grave digger, filled the grave and had put his arm around her. A real little gentleman although Marie couldn't stand him it was a nice gesture. As the grave was filled the guests left the graveyard. At the end there was just Amy and her kids. "Marie it's getting dark", Amy said and reached out her hand. Marie took a step on the grave and laid down the flower which she was holding the whole afternoon on the grave. "See you daddy I'll be back soon", Marie sniffed turned to Amy took her still reached out hand and left the graveyard as well.
