Feeling weary, I woke up in a white room. Liam, sitting across from me in a chair was looking down at the floor and twiddling his fingers. Suddenly I was lifted from my cloud of fog.
Must have been the painkillers wearing off.
"Liam," I said fully awake now.
Getting his attention, he rushed over to the side of my bed.
"You did great." He whispered a strange smile beaming on his face. It almost seemed as if it was a fake one.
His face was glistening with tears. Must be tears of joy, but I never expected him to cry this much. I grabbed his hand.
The nurse walked in.
"I'm back!" she said. "And I brought something with me too!"
I saw beside her was a gray trolley.
"Would you like something to eat?" She asked grabbing a snack off the gray cart.
"No, that’s okay," I responded. "I'm not hungry. I just want to see my baby."
The nurse seemed confused by this.
Her eyebrows furrowed, and a frown appeared on her face as she sent a questioning glance at Liam. His baby brown eyes bared into her as if pleading for her not to say anything.
"I'll be right back," she mumbled and quickly walked out the door with the trolley behind her.
"Well that was strange, don't you think?" I said to Liam.
Before he had a chance to answer the doctor walked in.
"Is everything okay? The nurse sent me in here. She says you might have a few questions."
"Questions about what?" I asked, desperately wanting to know what was going on.
The doctor turned his head to Liam, sending him a telepathic question asking him if I knew what was going on. Liam shook his head no.
The doctor took a deep breath in.
"Zoey... I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this, but your baby girl... she didn't make it. We don't know why this happens, but we can assure you that you didn't do anything wrong. I'm very sorry."
With that, he walked out of the room and left me alone with Liam.
My eyes were brimming with tears now and my whole head stung like I had just been slapped by a brick.
"Liam, he's lying right? Tell me he's lying. Please will you just get somebody to give her to me? I want to see her NOW. What ever joke your running isn't funny. I need to know she's okay. Just let me see her. Please." I was practically begging now.
Liam was frozen. He didn't say one word to me. All he could do was blankly stare. I shook him by grabbing his shoulders with both my hands.
"Liam, stop it! Everything's fine. Just please- all you need to do is get somebody to bring her to me. Bring her to us. Snap out of it!"
He snapped his eyes into contact with mine.
In a husky whisper he said,
"I-I can't. Zoe...She's really gone. I don't know how much you remember from all the pain killers but I saw her. I SAW her lifeless body. I saw them take her away. She's gone Zoe. Our baby girl....she's gone. And she's not coming back. We're not going to see her ever, so stop asking!"
Tears were streaming down Liam's face as he just about shouted these last words.
My face crumpled at the harsh truth of his sentence.
Our baby girl....she's gone. And she's not coming back. We're not going to see her ever.
I felt nothing. I was numb inside.
Liam was almost out of tears, so now it was my turn to cry.
"Liam-This can't be true. It has to be a dream. How can the world be so cruel? This can't be real."
"It is though." He retorted.
Something about his uncomforting words made it finally sink in.
The world is a cruel place.
My baby was gone, and so was my desire to be alive.
The fresh hope I woke up with at the start of everyday vanished when my baby did.
Face crumpling into a slew of unattractive expressions again, I started weeping.
Liam cupped his hand around the back of my head, and pulled my face into his chest.
We lay there crying, wrapped in each other’s arms for what seemed like forever.
