Chapter 3

Kay blinked not believing her eyes. The plane Miguel is on didn't blow up. It couldn't have. Kay couldn't believe it. Miguel was not dead. Kay tried to get to her feet but as soon as she did, she fainted.

"Kay, honey, it's okay," Grace said patting Kay's arms.

"What's going on? Where am I? IS Miguel okay?" Kay asked franticly. Everyone was silent. "Someone answer me, damnit! What happened to Miguel?!"

"He survived the explosion, but he's in ICU, there's little chance he'll make it through the night," Eve Russell said, grimly.

"What about Charity? Is she okay?" Kay asked quietly.

"No, I'm sorry to say but your cousin didn't make it. It's believed she died as soon as the plan exploded, she didn't suffer," Eve said.

"I want to see him," Kay said.

"I'm sorry, Kay, no one but family can see him right now," Eve said laying her hand on Kay's shoulder.

"I am family. He's my cousin's husband. Please, Dr. Russell, let me see him. I want to say my good-byes in case he dies," Kay pleaded.

"Okay, but just for a minute."
