Chapter 32:
The sun was shining bright the next morning. Theresa could feel the rays hit her face. She rolled over to feel Fox, but he wasn't there. She rubbed her eyes and looked for her husband.
"Where's Fox?" She asked herself.
She put her robe on and went searching for him. She found him in the kitchen talking to someone on his cell phone. He seemed upset. Once Fox hung up Theresa spoke.
"Something wrong, honey?"
"You're up!" He turned around and said enthusiastically.
"Yes, who was that?" She asked while getting an apple out.
"Patrick."
"Patrick? What did he want?"
"There's a problem at Crane Industries and I have to go there to fix it."
"Oh! What kind of problem?"
"Ugh! You know how Patrick and Adam were working on that deal with Belzack Corporation?"
Theresa nodded her head.
"Well, somehow, don't ask me how, Adam managed to piss off the President of Belzack Corporation."
"Oh my goodness!"
"I'm really sorry I can't be here today, but I'll tell you what. When I finish up I'll come home and we can have a romantic night."
"Well I don't want you to be driving back and forth so much. God only knows what may happen to you. So I'll just have you drop me off at the manison. We'll have some fun tonight. Alright?"
"I don't want to ruin your fun." He said guilty like.
"You won't be. Anyways I want to check up on Little Ethan and Mama."
"Okay, I won't argue with you. Why don't you eat and take a shower while I pack."
"Sounds great."
"I love you, Theresa."
"I love you too, Fox!" She leaned in for a long passionate kiss.
The pulled away for some air and Theresa said, "Okay, let's get going."
"Alright."
An hour later, they were on their way to the mansion. Before Fox could even stop the car in front of the mansion, Theresa jumped out. She just wanted to see her baby boy. He was a little sick last night, but she thought it was just a little cold. Nothing big.
"Phyllis!" Theresa shouted as soon as she was inside.
Phyllis running down the stairs said, "Oh Theresa! You're home so soon."
"I know. Fox has some business to deal with."
"Oh!"
"How's Little Ethan?"
"He has a high temperature."
"What is it?"
"103.5"
"103! Did you call Dr. Russell?"
"Yes, she'll be here soon."
"Okay. How is Mama doing?"
"Good. She's still a little soar from her fall, but she's getting better every day."
"Has she been using her cane?"
"Yes, Theresa. I watch her like a hawk."
Theresa laughed and said, "We'll I'll be with Little Ethan if anyone asks."
"Okay."
Theresa stopped half way up the stairs and said, "Oh Phyllis!"
"Yes, Theresa."
"When Fox comes home, tell him that tonight will have to be postponed until Little Ethan is better."
"Yes, Theresa."
Theresa walked into the nusery to find Little Ethan sleeping. She sat in the rocking chair next to his crib and felt his forehead. It was buring up. Ethan walked in with a teddy bear.
"Theresa, I thought you were out of town?"
"I was, but Fox had to deal with something at Crane Industries and Little Ethan is sick. So how could we enjoy ourselves?"
"I see. I just wanted to bring him my teddy bear from when I was younger."
"Thank you, Ethan. I'm sure he appreciates it." Theresa smiled weakly.
"Well, I'll leave you two alone."
"No! Please stay. I could use the company . That is if you're not busy."
"I'm not busy and I would love to keep you company."
"Thanks."
Ethan took a seat and began to talk about a project they were working on. That conversation was short and boring.
"So uh....do you know when Fox will be home?"
"Not yet."
"Did you call Dr. Russell?" Was his next question.
"Phyllis did. She should be here any moment."
"I see."
"Knock, knock!"
"Come in!" Theresa said.
"Hi Theresa, Hi Ethan." Dr. Russell said.*
"Hi." The*y both said.
"So tell me what's wrong?"
"Well he's running a high fever."
"What is it?"
"103.5"
"Oh my goodness!" Eve was shocked.
"And yesterday he was coughing and sneazing. I hope it's nothing serious."
"Don't worry. It's probably just a little cold. Would you two leave the room while I examine him?"
"Of course." Ethan said.
Theresa stood nervously in the hall. She was pacing the floor, wringing her hands.
"Theresa, calm down. Little Ethan will be fine."
"I hope you're right."
Ethan pulled Theresa into a friendly hug.
"Thanks, I needed that." She told him.
"Anytime for a friend."
She smiled weakly.
Inside the room while Eve was examining Little Ethan, his heart stopped. She pulled out her cell and called for an ambulence. Then she began CPR.
"Ethan, come in here!" She shouted.
Theresa got worried, but Ethan assured her that everything was alright. He was shocked to see Eve doing CPR.
"What happened?"
"His heart stopped."
"Oh my God! I'll go get Theresa."
"No! Conintue doing CPR while I get a shot ready. Hopefully it will help him."
Theresa was even more nervous.
"He's dying!" She thought. "No he can't be!"
"Theresa, how is he?" Fox asked running to her.
"I...I don't know."
"Ethan's in there with Eve."
"Stay right here. I'll be back with some news."
"Okay, please tell me how he is."
"I will." He kissed her before entering the room.-
"What's going on?" Fox asked once he saw Ethan doin CPR.
"His heart stopped." Ethan said.
"Is he dead?"
"We'll find out once I give him this shot." Eve informed him.
"We have to tell Theresa." Fox said.
"It's gonna break her heart." Ethan told him.
"I know."
Fox walked out and saw Theresa still pacing the floor.
"Fox, how is he? Why is this taking so long?"
"Theresa, please sit down." He said seriously.
"Oh my God! He's dead!" She screamed loud enough for everyone to hear.
"Whose dead?" Julian asked.
"Our son." She cried.
"Oh my!" Was all he could say.
"Theresa, he's not dead yet. His heart stopped though. Ethan is doing CPR and Eve is going to give him a drug that can either help him or do nothing."
"I have to see him." Theresa ran into the nursery.
Eve was about to give him the drug when Theresa came in.
"My baby!" She cried out. "Please, God, don't take him from me! Please!"
Fox wrapped his arms around Theresa and held her back while Eve and Ethan worked.
"He looks so peacefully. Like he's in a deep sleep." Theresa said to Fox.
"Yes, he does."
Three minutes passed and nothing happened.
"Theresa, I'm sorry. We did all we could."
"No! No!" She didn't want to face the truth.
"Theresa, he had a virus that is very deadly. I'm sorry."
Theresa approached her son. He lay there dead.
"He's so young. Why him?"
"God has a better plan for him." Ethan tried to comfort her.
"No, God just wants to see me suffer."
"Theresa, please." Fox began. "I may not be a very religious person, but I know God doesn't want to see anyone suffer."
Theresa picked Little Ethan up into her eyes for one last time.
"Goodbye my baby. Mommy will always love you. Always."
"Cough, cough!"
"Oh my God!" Fox said in amazment. "Eve, he's alive!"
"What?"
Eve came and saw it for herself.
"It's a miracle." Eve told them.
"I knew God wouldn't let you die!" Theresa said joyously.
"I'd like to take him for some tests to make sure he's able to be at home."
"Of course." Fox said.
