When Sophie went to the hospital she was glad to find that Sam was away to get something to eat. She knocked the door and heard her mom say come in.
"Soph, there you are, I felt like you've been gone for ages!"
"Well, I have! It's just I've been thinking about…"
"Sky, I know, I can tell… you want to talk about it don't you?"
"Well, yeah, I do, sometimes its scary when you can tell that stuff it's as if you have a speaker in my brain or something."
"Well, that's the advantages of being a mother."
They both laughed, but Donna wanted to get back to Sophie's problem.
"OK, honey, what is it?"
"Well, it's just I feel so left out you know, I mean you and Sam are so happy together and I don't have that because Sky left me."
"That's because Sky is a jerk."
"Well, I love him, very much, but I don't think he loves me anymore and I thought I could talk to you about this because Sam left you and I - I j -just…" Sophie was crying so hard she couldn't talk properly. Donna really felt for her, she really knew what is was like to lose the one you really love, and you think its forever, but it might not be.
"Oh, Soph, come here,"
Donna hugged her daughter as tightly as she could and rubbed her back trying to make her calm down.
"You know you really should have talked to me about this earlier, you shouldn't have bottled it up like this."
"I know, I feel terrible and I don't know what to do!"
"He'll come back, he will, if he really truly loves you. If he doesn't he doesn't deserve you, you should know better than to wait around for him. Have you tried calling?"
"Yes, but every time I do it just goes straight to voicemail and I've wrote to him but he just doesn't reply, he could be anywhere, doing anything, maybe found someone new…"
"Well I don't know, were just gonna have to hope that he isn't stupid enough not to come back, because he will have lost the best thing that ever happened to him."
"Thanks mom, you're right, I shouldn't wait for him I should just got on with life and not dwell on the past…"
"Exactly, now please go and get some rest, you look really tired."
"Thanks mom, I'll go, hope you have a nice night."
"Well I don't think so, but thanks anyway!"
Sophie left. She lied to her mom; she would think about Sky constantly, she knew she would. She just couldn't seem to get him out of her head, it was horrible. She started to sing:
I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cried,
And the days feel like years when I'm alone and the bed where you lie is made up on your side,
When you walk away,
I count the steps that you take,
Do you see how much I need you right now?
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you,
When you're gone,
The face I came to know is missing too,
When you're gone the words I need to hear to always get me through the day,
And make it OK,
I miss you……
She walked in the door and got into bed she didn't think, she didn't talk, she just slept.
Meanwhile when Sam got back to see Donna, she realized that she was sleeping, so he sat down beside her and just watched her sleep. She looked so peaceful, so at rest even after the events of the past few days. I mean she just went through a major operation and found out she was pregnant. Yet she still looked beautiful, just like the day they first met… Sam drifted off into a dream of how they met.
Donna got out of bed and made sure she had packed all the stuff Sophie had brought her during her stay. Everything was there. She was ready to go; she was ready to see Tanya, Rosie, Bill and Harry. She was ready for the big announcement later. What she wasn't ready for was the reason of the announcement. She wasn't sure if she could cope with a baby, not again. She did have a wonderful family to get her through it this time, but she still wasn't who she was before. Sam interrupted her train of thought.
"You OK? You look worried."
"I'm fine, stop worrying! I'm just thinking about how we're going to tell everyone later."
"It's going to be great, they will be happy for us!"
"Yeah, I suppose, I better go pick them up," Donna went over and kissed Sam, they stayed there a minute just embracing taking each other in.
"I'll see you later, I love you,"
"I love you, too, forever!"
