Authors note: To answer the question of Rinoa.J I don't know where Laguna would have been at that time but I'll make something up, and I will put why Rinoa hates her farther but I need to do this first so bear with me. Thank you and keep reviewing!
Chapter 8 (General Caraway's pov)
I stepped outside the door and took a deep breath before opening it.
As I entered the room I found little Rinoa asleep in the bed. I sat down on a seat, which was next to the bed and stroked her hair.
She opened an eye and gave me a smile then she sat up and hugged me.
"Daddy your finally here"
I gave her a quick hug and looked at her.
"I need to talk to you"
"What about?"
"Your mother"
"Oh, it's okay daddy the doctors said their gonna make her better."
I looked at her and she was looking at me. She looked like she was about to cry.
"Is she okay?"
What was I to say? I must have sat there in silence for a few minutes thinking of how to tell her.
"She…gone"
"Where"
"The doctor said that she didn't make it through her injuries"
Rinoa's eyes filled with tears and she started crying.
"She's dead?"
I gave her a sorrowful look then nodded my head. She burst into tears even worse than before, I wrapped my hands around her as she sobbed against me.
It pained me to see her like this and I didn't want Rinoa to see me upset.
What was I going to do without Julia? She's not here anymore. She's the only person I had ever fallen in love with. I was madly in love with her.
I couldn't cope anymore and I couldn't stand the thought of her not here.
I had to stop thinking about Julia so I concentrated on Rinoa cradling her in my arms and telling her to be strong.
I spent the whole night there with her making sure she was okay and watching over her as she slept.
She looked like her mother, how was I going to cope on my own without her?
Authors note: Yes I know it's short. Oh year and by the way, the doctor in the last chapter wasn't supposed to look like Zell in case anyone thought that, he was actually supposed to look like a guy off casualty! Keep reviewing because I want more than at least 20 reviews to beat all my brothers' stories please!
