Chapter 20
Alister walked into his office and sat down at his desk prepared to do paperwork. He was happy he made up with Sheridan. For once he was truely happy. He was about to do some paperwork when he catched a glimse of the picture of his wife. He picked it up and looked at it. He traced the face of her with his finger. He missed her so much. He wished she was here with him. He wanted her here. To hear her voice. To tell her that he loved her and that he was sorry for everything. He wished she didn't die. This is why he didn't get to close to people. If you don't get to close you can't get hurt. He sighed and set the picture down. There was a sudden glow in the room. Alister didn't notice it.
"Look at you." Alister looked up and almost jumped out of his skin. There was his wife Katherine standing there with a beautiful glow around her.
"Katherine, is that you!"
"Yes, it is me dear." she said with a smile. Alister walked over stilled confused.
"I can't believe its you."
"Its me. I am so proud of you Alister. You have changed so much. You made up with Sheridan and most of the people in Harmoney. I just love you for this. I have always wanted you to change but only you could choose to do that and you have. Gosh! I just can't believe it happened."
"Was I really that bad?"
"Well, you have to admit you did some pretty bad stuff." Katherine walked over and sat on his desk.
"Yeah and I feel terribel for it but what can I do to make up for it?"
"You already have done something. You have changed yourself. You are such a good man now."
"I do miss you Katherine. I wish you were here with me."
"I know you do but someday we will see each other again."
"Can I ask you a question?"
"Sure."
"Was I always this old?"
"Yes." Alister's face fell. "But I liked you this old." Alister smiled and leaned his forhead against hers.
"I love you Katherine."
"I love you too Alister Crane." Katherine kissed him on the cheek and then stood in front of him. "Take care of Sheridan and Julian for me."
"I will."
"Goodbye. I love you." Katherine then disappeared.
Alister bolted up from his desk. He had fell asleep. He was still holding the picture of his wife. He smiled and looked at his beautiful wife.
"I love you too Katherine."
Sheridan walks into the police station. She see's Hank standing there.
"Hello Hank. How is Gwen and Emily?"
"They are good. Can I ask you a question?"
"Sure."
"What do you think of this?" He pulled a velvet box out of his pocket and showed her a beautiful simple diamond ring.
"Its beautiful."
"Yeah I plan on proposing to Gwen tonight."
"Congradulations."
"Thanks. Sorry, you want to see Antonio don't you?"
"Yes, I need to see him for just a couple of minutes."
"Ok, come this way." Sheridan followed Hank to the jail cell where Antonio was. Hank left them alone. Antonio turned to see Sheridan standing there.
"Sheridan I knew you would change your mind!"
"I didn't. I just came to drop this off." She handed him and evelope. He opened them.
"Divorce papers. I am not signing these."
"What choice do you have? You know you are going to jail. My father will make sure of that." Antonio looked at her and knew he had no choice. He signed the papers and handed them to her. "I am sorry it had to end this way." She looked at him one last time and left a free woman.
Stacie and Luis arrived at the hospital at nine that morning. They couldn't wait to see their little baby girl. Stacie was almost jumping up and down. She gets to hold her little girl for the first time, rock her, and feed her for the first time. She couldn't wait. She was just so happy.
"Luis I just can't wait!"
"I know. We get to take our little Christina home." Dr. Russell came out and ushered them into the room. Their baby girl was lying there awake, looking around her.
"Well, she has a little dirty diper and I thought one of you might want to change it."
"Oh Luis the first diper change." They changed her diper and put her in the clothes they had brought for her. Stacie held her for a couple of minutes and the handed her to Luis. Stacie packed the diper bag and then Luis handed the baby to her. He picked up the bag and walked out with his wife and child.
Kay arrived home two hours ago. She wouldn't tell anyone what happened. She just went straight to her and Miguel's room and cried but not before she told everyone just to leave her alone. She realized it was time. She went downstairs and found Miguel in the kitchen with Maria.
"Kay, what is wrong?" Kay sat down next to him.
"As you know I went to the doctor today right."
"Yeah what happened?"
"Well, the doctor told me that well.....that is no way I could have anymore children."
"What! Oh Kay I am so sorry."
"I just can't believe it." Miguel wrapped his arms around her and held her as she cried.
"We will get through this. We can adopt or have a seregant mother."
"Yeah but its not the same."
"I know you want to carry the baby yourself. I really don't know what to say its just that I have never known the experiance to carry a child. I know it should be pretty intense. I really feel for you Kay. How can I not you are my wife. I love you and I will help you get through this."
"Thanks Miguel. Let's call the adoption agency soon."
"All right." Kay hugged him and then picked up Maria. She couldn't have anymore children but she could give some lonly child a home.
