Yes, it was Anna who told Ryan he said cute.

About Trisha, I wrote that Anna was her mom, but of course that's not the case. But she is almost like a mom to Trisha. So I hope you are not confused anymore now.

Chapter 8 – Tragedy

"Can you help her? Is she going to be okay?"
Ryan ran by the side of the stretcher as the doctors were taking here to the emergency.

"Please sir, calm down and wait in the waiting room until we have further details. They went away and Ryan stood there alone"
What happened? How could this happen? Trisha, she was... She was going to be all right. Come on Ryan focus, where is Anna?

He ran to the waiting room where he saw her sitting in a chair crying.

"Anna! Hey, don't cry. She will make it, she's a strong girl"

"What did the doctors say?"
"They told us to wait here until they know how bad it is"
"What? I want to know how she is doing now!"
"Calm down, we can't do anything but wait now. Just give them some time. I will just go and call Seth and Summer, will you be okay?"

"Yes…"

"Seth slow down, you are going way to fast!"

"What? You use to complain that I am going to slow"
"Yes but I'm not looking forward to die at an early age, so slow down! We will get to the hospital either way"
They were just heading back home when Ryan called them. He didn't say much, just that Trisha was in some kind of accident and that they were at the hospital.

"Why does this kind of stuff always seem to happen to us or someone we are close too?"

"I don't know. I wish I did, but I don't…."

Hours passed by and nothing happened. But after a while Seth woke Anna up. There was a doctor coming towards them. He was a little bit bloody and seemed to be depressed.

"Mr. Atwood?"

"Yes that's me!" Ryan got up of his chair.

"Your daughter was hit pretty badly, she got internal bleedings and it was too late even if she had got here directly. I am so sorry about your loss"

Ryan fell back to his chair. His daughter… she was dead. He got up and started to punch uncontrollable in the wall. Anna got up and took his arms.

"Ryan! Stop it! Stop it! You can't do this now! I need you here!"
He fell in to her arms and started to cry. Seth had never seen his brother cry before, but he could understand it. He was about to cry too, and Summer had already thrown herself around him. How were they going to come back from this?

I know some tragedy for Seth and Summer too, but most for Ryan and Anna. I don't know if you liked that she died, but that's the way life goes. I have a lot of school this week and I have a little loss of ideas. So I won't update in a while. Maybe early next week. Anyway, Review! I need them more than ever!
