Days passed, and still nothing happened. They were at the hospital
everyday. The kids came over right after school to sit with their mother,
and Kevin was there whenever he wasn't working. Then the news came. A call
came from the hospital telling them that they needed to come up. Everyone
rushed there and they were met by a nurse who led them to Lucy's room.
"What happened? What's the news?" Kevin asked nervously.
"We don't think that Lucy is going to make it." She answered sadly. Kevin sunk down into a chair.
"Wh-What happened?" He asked.
"It seems that her system has begun to shut itself down. Her heart rate has dropped significantly, and it's not consistent. Her condition is dropping. We want to give you as much time with her as possible." She said. From that moment on, the Kinkirks were there all the time. They woke up and came to the hospital, and didn't go home until nine or ten at night. Tyler, Brooke, Joe and Melissa didn't go to school.
Then finally, four days later, a loud alarm suddenly rang out in Lucy's hospital room. Kevin jumped up and looked at the heart monitor, where all he saw was a straight line. Doctors rushed into the room and surrounded Lucy.
"Clear!" A voice shouted. The line on the monitor stayed straight.
"Clear!" The voice yelled again. Still nothing. They began to back up.
"Please, try once more." He begged them desperately. They nodded slowly.
"Clear!" The room went silent. One of the doctors came over to Kevin. He placed his hand on his shoulder.
"I'm sorry." He said. Kevin approached Lucy and sank down by her side. He began to cry. The cry quickly turned to a sob. All the kids ran over and surrounded the bed again, crying.
"I love you, Lucy. I love you so much." Kevin whispered. "I love you mom." The kids said in unison. Then, slowly, they were escorted from the room by a nurse.
A/N: OK guys: I'm sorry. I know that this isn't what you wanted to happen. But I know where this story is going to go. Hang in there, OK? : - /
