28-Sorrow

"Daphne, phone for you!"

With a smile on her face, Daphne hurried into the living room and smiled as her boss handed her the phone.

"Thank you, Dr. Crane. Hello? Oh, hello Mum. Now Mum, don't start… what?"

She gasped and her trembling hand went to her mouth. She listened to her mum, but all she heard was "Your Grammy Moon has died."

When Niles arrived and offered his sincere condolences she began to sob. Niles, Frasier and Martin surrounded her, holding her while she cried. It was Niles she held onto the tightest, unable to bear the heartbreaking sorrow.
