The Final Chapter (before the epilogue)
Two Days Later
Aria still cried at the thought. The loss of her child was the most heart wrenching thing that Ezra and her had or will ever have to endure. They could get through this, however. Aria was sure of it. They had each other, and that's all that they needed inspiration wise in order to strive to continue on. Aria smiled a weak, but true smile. She may have lost her child, but she did not lose hope. They could try again. And this time; there would be no complications, because Aria's transfusions were almost completely over with, because today was her final one. She slid into the drivers seat of her car, and headed towards Doctor Ranaldi's office, where she would get her final transfusion. She drove, and drove until she finally reached her destination. She walked into the office, where Doctor Ranaldi greeted her with a warm, welcoming smile. She signed in, and the doctor lead her to the back room where Aria's pain would finally be able to end. She would no longer have to get these transfusions, and she would no longer have to worry about the risks caused when she conceived children. Doctor Ranaldi kept her company while she had her transfusion this time, since Ezra was working. Doctor Ranaldi smiled at her. "You're the bravest woman I've ever met, Aria," he said. "Thank you doc. It really means a lot," she replied, smiling at him. "You're so strong... It's breathtaking," he said. "Again, thank you," she said. "I may have lost a child, but I'm willing to try again, and this time will be different. I will be stronger. And so will my baby," she said. "Aria..." The doctor said. "No, listen. I know it may seem soon. I know it may seem like I'm not hurt by all of this, but truly, I am. But I don't just want this doctor. I need this." She said. "Aria, that's not what I'm trying to say," He said. "She'll be beautiful. I know. I know it will be a girl again, I just know," she continued on. "Aria," the doctor said. "You're sterile," he said. "W-What...?" she asked. "What do you mean?" "You cannot bear children anymore." He said. Aria just sat there, and cried. Crying was something that she had been doing a lot of lately. You would think that she had been used to it by now. The hurt. The tears. The heartbreak. It was like deja vu, all over again.
And just like that, it wasn't just Aria's child that died. But all hope of Ezra and Aria ever having a child died with it.
