Ella(Charlotte Elizabeth) 3years old
Carter King Freedman 10 months old
Setting Charlotte and Cooper's bedroom
Charlotte wakes up to her phone ringing.
"What time is it?" Cooper asks yawning.
"Two am." Charlotte answers reaching for the home.
"Must be the hospital." Cooper finishes his yawn.
Charlotte looks at the phone. "No. It's Landry." Her heart sinks because Landry calling at two am can't mean anything good.
"Landry?" Charlotte answers in a fluster. Cooper listens.
"Oh. ...What happened?... Oh, that's not good. ..Uh huh... I'll be there as soon as I can pack and get a flight out." Charlotte sighs and hangs up.
"What's wrong?" Cooper asks.
"It's momma. She's in the ICU. Her liver's shut down. She's on a ventilator. I'm the doctor in the family so Landry called for my medical opinion about what to do."
"I'll go with you." Cooper gets out his lap top to start looking up flights.
"What about the kids?" Charlotte asks.
"They can come along."
"Coop, I need to focus on my momma's health. I can't be chasin' after the kids."
"I'll take care of the kids and Duke's wife seems nice enough maybe she can watch them so I can go see your mother in the ICU with you."
"Duke's wife has four kids of her own. That'll make seven kids for her to look after if we bring 'em."
"We'll work it out Charlotte. I'm not letting you do this alone and it's too short notice to arrange anything with Violet. She'll be at work most of the day so she can't watch them."
Charlotte sighs as she gets dressed. "I wish this wasn't happening."
Cooper rubs her back. "We'll get through it together." Cooper gets up and hugs Charlotte.
Charlotte leans into him and sobs. It's not something she does often but she's scared for her momma. Her and her momma haven't always been close and now she wishes she had done more to help her momma these past few years. She prays she'll have some time to do that now but from what Landry said it doesn't sound like she'll have that chance. She sobs into Coopers chest and he rubs her back. That's about all he can do for her right now.
