Johnny
Well, I had a beautiful daughter. She meant the world to me, but my son... didn't make it. He was a still born, so when he was born, he was already dead. When I saw him all floppy in the surgeon's hands, I knew it was bad. It was all my fault, I probably passed on a gene, leaving my son limp and lifeless. When I broke down in the theatre, I didn't see Lexi until she was out of the room herself. I was standing in the hallway, sobbing, and she came up to me with tears running down her cheeks. She ran into my arms and cried loads. I picked her up and took her back to her room where she slept until late the next morning. I didn't sleep a wink all night. I got up early and went over to the crib to see my daughter. I gazed at her beauty, she had similarities to Lexi, but also resemblances to me. She clearly had gorgeous brown locks developing, but facially, she looked a little bit like Lexi. I then heard a quiet knocking at the door, I opened it carefully and Mike was standing there. He smiled sadly, "I'm very sorry Johnny," He held out his arms and I collapsed into them, weeping quietly. "Come on, lets go and talk outside,". We made our way outside to have a talk, the sun was rising and sirens were heard in the distance. "Whatever happens, you've got to remember that it's not your fault that he passed,"
"Yeah... I guess we've just got to move on with our lives,"
"Remember, you've got a gorgeous daughter,"
We sat down on a bench, "Look, Gina and I were talking a few days ago," he began, "We said that if you wanted, you and Lexi would be able to move into a flat if you wanted. You know, give you and the baby a bit of space," I felt really grateful for him saying that, it was a good idea and I was automatically happy with it. "That sounds great!" I replied, "I mean, I'd have to talk about it with Lexi, but, I'm cool with it!"
I was gonna ask him, there was nothing stopping me. "and I was also wondering, that when Lex turns sixteen, will I be able to, um, ask her to marry me?"
