Slipped Away
They were the perfect family that you see grow before your eyes. ( Amy, John, and Ricky sharing a moment during John's second birthday) Now four years later…
John: Mommy when will I ever get a little brother or sister?
Amy: Mommy will have talk to daddy about that.
Daddy: Talk to me about what?
(Camera zooms in on Ricky and Amy talking in bed.)
Amy: John defiantly wants to be a big brother, but I don't think I'm ready for that just yet. What do you think (Amy is looking at Ricky)
Ricky: Let's do it!
John dream was finally coming true. But sometimes things happen before you can reach them. It all can happen in a quick flash. (Amy and Ricky is sitting on the front porch watching John riding his bike. A black Mercedes is driving really fast and doesn't see John.) (Too Late To Apologize plays in the background.)
Ricky: JOHNNNNNNNN! (Running out to the street to save John with Amy trailing behind him screaming John's name.) Amy: SOMEBODY CALL 911! SOMEBODY PLEASE!
In a flash everything bad can happen. (Flash, Amy and Ricky sitting in the emergency room)
Dr. Tuner: We are so sorry.
The hurt will either help them overcome everything or remember the day he slipped away ( Slipped Away plays in the background.)
Amy: MY BABY IS DEAD! HAVE YOU STOPPED AND NOTICED THAT DAMNIT ?
Ricky: HE WASN'T JUST YOUR BABY AMY!
Just when everything looks bad ( shows Amy sitting on the couch holding John's picture close to her heart. Ricky in John's room shedding so many tears.)
The day you slipped away
(Amy throwing a glass vase at the wall. Ricky walks in and holds Amy tight)
Could be for the better
Amy: I'm pregnant
Ricky: John would have been so happy.
(9 months past and Amy is ready to give birth.)
Amy: What should we name him?
Ricky: JJ
Amy: What does that mean?
Ricky: John Jr….
Amy: (looks at the baby) Welcome to the world John
Always you can win back faith…..
Tell me if this a great story to write…
