Edward never did answer. Eventually, the doctor walked in.
"Oh, hello. I didn't realize Mr. Cullen had visitors. I'm Dr. Kate Denali and I've been attending to Mr. Cullen. I'm just here to check his oxygen levels and see if there's anything else he may need."
"Hi I'm Bella Cullen and this is my husband Michael. Can you tell us what happened and could you update us on Eliza?"
"Oh, I'm so sorry you must not have been here. Per the cops there was a huge fire at Mr. Cullen's residence. Unfortunately, I don't have more information about the fire but I can update you on Mr. Cullen and Mrs. Cullen."
"Please do. I tried asking him but he hasn't responded."
"He's still in shock. A few minutes before you arrived we updated him on Eliza. Unfortunately, her injuries were to grave. She arrived unresponsive. We did try to revive her but it was unsuccessful. Mr. Cullen sustained a few minor burns and we have him on oxygen to help with his breathing."
"I can't believe this. We were just at their house earlier in the evening for dinner."
After the doctor looked over Edward she left the room. I tried to comfort Michael by rubbing his back. He had been crying uncontrollably since the doctor said Eliza didn't make it. Edward wasn't much better. After a few minutes, I moved the chairs closer to the bed. I sat there weeping with my husband's head in my lap while I ran my fingers through his auburn hair and I held Edwards hand with my left. We were a mess because we lost a huge part of our family. All I could think was, what are we going to do? Where's Edward going to go?
So, what do you think? Please be honest.
