"Yes darling " Annabella swung her daughter up under the arms and on to the bed. "That's your dad "

"Daddy " Taila said delightedly as she held her arms out, saying she wanted a hug.

Ethan looked to the floor, wishing it would open up and swallow him. Cal was the irrespossible one, not him. He owned up to his mistakes. The curtain opened and walked in Tom holding pens and paper and he crouched down to the child's level.

"Do you want to draw?" Tom asked, softly.

"Yeah " Replied an excitedly Talia, reaching for the pens which were red, orange and pink and sticking her tounge out with concentrate she began to draw.

"Good " Tom chuckled, as he stood up and left the cubicle.

"Who's that darling?" Annabella asked, noticing that her daughter was drawing too people with the stick woman an holding a baby, Annabella could only guess that it was her.

"It's you mummy " Talia replied, holding up her picture proudly.

Annabella smiled as the curtain once again opened.

Ethan.

"Well?" Annabella asked, wanting to know about her diagnose.

"You've broken your wrist " Ethan replied, smiling slightly at Talia who was now at the side of Annabella's bed and he whispered to her:

"Hello?"

"Hello?" Talia replied, equally as quitely.

Ethan signed Annabella's discharge papers. He looked up as Zoe and Lily walked down the corridor together and Lily looked happy. She had a smile on her face and Ethan ran to catch up with her before she spotted Annabella and Talia.

She turned around.

"Who's that?" She asked, with a hint of amusment in her voice

Ethan decided to be honest? with her.

"She's my daughter "

Lily nodded and walked away, leaving Ethan unsure of what she was thinking.
