I know the ending of the last chapter was sad! :( RIP Jim Moody

How will Christine take the news?

At Christine and Jim's house 28th September 1922

A telegram was delivered to their home

"Dear Mrs Moody

Please come to Southampton White star line offices

Your sincerely Mr Evans

Chairman

"Hmm, I wonder what that is about?" she asked Charlotte who had come round for breakfast

Frederick came in with the daily newspaper looking very sad

"Charlotte can you leave us please" he said

"What's wrong Fred?" asked Christine concerned

Charlotte left the room

"It seems the RMS Majestic was hit by a torpedo yesterday and sunk" he said

"Jim, Jim, JIMMM! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO the bloody stupid fool" she screamed

"The paper lists 200 dead, Jim isn't mentioned though" Fred tried to reassure her

"Of course he won't be written in here, I haven't been bloody told, and that's why they want me down to the office to tell me my husband is dead" she ran out the door

"Christine come back, ill drive you down there" he chased after her

She then returned to Fred and got in the car with him

Charlotte stayed behind with Victor and their three boys, 4 year old Neville, 2 year old Thomas and 6 month old Patrick.

At the white star line office Southampton

"Good morning can I help you?" asked the receptionist

"Yes, I received a telegram from a Mr Evans asking me to come down here urgently" Christine explained

"Ok Miss, can I have your name and I'll inform Mr Evans" she asked

"Mrs Moody" said Christine

The receptionist looked saddened "Ok I will let him know"

Mr Evans came out looking solemn

"Come through Mrs Moody" he asked

"Would you like me in there with you?" asked Fred

"Yes I would" she said taking his hand

They entered the room

"Mrs Moody I received a telegram from the RMS Olympic early this morning informing me that unfortunately the RMS Majestic was attacked last night by a torpedo across the north Atlantic. The ship unfortunately sunk and took 203 lives with it. Your husband was unfortunately one of these victims. I am so sorry Mrs Moody. James Moody was a fine officer who performed his tasks and roles with exceptional bravery and loyalty to those around him. More survivors have him to thank for their survival just as with the RMS Titanic"

She sat in silence she was in shock

"Thank you for informing us Mr Evans. Is a Mr David Blair accounted for? He was a friend of Jim's?"

"Yes Mr Blair was taken aboard the RMS Olympic and is safe" Mr Evans informed

"Did you know Jim and Christine met aboard the Olympic?" Fred asked

"Yes I did, it's all very sad" Mr Evans said "Jim's body is aboard the RMS Olympic and will be sent back to Southampton for the funeral"

"Does his parents and siblings know?" asked Fred

"They have been informed" said Mr Evans

Christine got up and threw her engagement and wedding rings on the floor

"I HATE THAT BASTARD! We had a happy home together for five years and he gave it all up for that ship just to die. I wish I had never met him, I wish he died on titanic"

She stormed out

Fred picked up her rings

"Thankyou Mr Evans" said Fred

"Hope she will be ok" Mr Evans replied

He chased after Christine

She had disappeared and he was panicking
