When Donna seen everyone out there waiting for her, she did a U turn. She started to run. She ran and ran until she wasn't aware of her surroundings the only thing she could feel was her feet banging on the ground and her heart thumping in her chest. She ran to the place she dreaded going but knew she had to at some point... the hospital. She stopped just outside it and got her breath back. She walked in. .
"Mrs Carmicheal, what are you doing here?"
"I've come to see my daughter."
"Oh, I see please wait a moment."
"Oh, okay I will."
Donna sat down and all of a sudden butterflies entered her stomach. She didn't know if she was nervous or scared, probably a bit of both. Donna was called into a empty room with a table in the middle. Laying on the table was Sophie. All Donna could look at was her, she didn't even realize when the doctor walked out and Sam came in. All she could think about was how beautiful she looked. So peaceful and at rest. Donna knew then. She knew that everything was going to be alright. She wasn't sure how but it was. Sophie was safe and didn't have any pain, she wasn't worried about Sam or anything. Donna stroked Sophie's hair and kissed her on the forehead. She was ice cold. She stood back and let a tear slip. Sam had seen enough. He went over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist. She jumped and turned around.
"Oh, Sam it's you, you scared me."
Donna fiercely tried to wipe away the tears but Sam stopped her.
"Don't, you have to understand it's alright to mourn your daughter."
"I don't understand why this had to happen to me, Sam. I really don't. I've been a good person, well mannered, I went to school, I got a job, I work my butt off every day, I had a daughter and I've tried to bring her up the best I could. I've don't have a criminal record, I pay my bills on time, I really don't know what I've done to deserve this."
"It seems that every time I love something, I lose something. I got you and I lost contact with my mother. I lost you and I got Sophie. And now I have you back again and I've lost Sophie. I wonder what I'm gonna lose next." She put a protective hand on her stomach.
The whole time Donna was talking she was looking at Sophie and Sam was holding her around her waist looking at Sophie over her shoulder.
"I guess we better go, sort out everything, oh and I forgot to tell you Sky --"
"-- is coming back on the 22nd, I know, I read the letter. Rosie gave it to me."
"Oh, Sam I don't know what I'm going to do, I can't cope with this. I really don't know."
They walked off and seen the doctor. The funeral director was there and they organised the funeral for June 23rd. They wanted to understand what had happened to Sky. That was going to be another story.
