1- There's a trigger word in this chapter. I've tried avoiding using blatant words but Molly's talking and that's what she'd say, so be aware of that.

2- Molly also says something kind of (not vulgar) but vulgar talking about what she'd do as payback to Matt.

"Remember Lillian," Diana says while walking her granddaughter through the hospital halls. "You have to be very careful with Daddy, okay?"

"I'm not gonna hurt him, I'm small."

"You can't jump on him like you usually do. Remember when your arm got hurt?"

"Yeah."

"Well a little bit above Daddy's leg got hurt like your arm did and he has to have a cast on so that it'll heal."

"A cast?"

"Mhm."

"Cool!" Lily exclaims. "I want one."

Diana shakes her head. "No, you don't dear, trust me."

They turn the corner to Tom's room. A large smile lights up his face as he sees Lily. "Lillian-"

"Daddy!" Lily runs towards Tom and jumps onto the bed.

"Be careful, be careful!" Molly yells and guides Lily into Tom's arms.

Tom grabs her and holds his daughter tight, not letting you. "Are you okay?" he asks, cupping her face and placing a kiss on her head before holding her back into his arms.

"Mhm. I missed you."

"I missed you too, kid. Oh, you don't know how much that I missed you. Were you good for your Mummy and Grandma?"

"Yeah."

"Good. You know that I would never leave you, right?"

"I know, Mummy was walking to me about it too."

"Good. I had no choice, Lils, I didn't just leave you."

Tom slowly rocks back and forth with Lily in his arms. Molly notices the pain in his face, so she says, "Tom, honey, be careful, your ribs. Why don't you out her down?"

Tom shakes his head and holds Lily for another minute. "Okay," Tom puts his hands in her face. "I've bothered you enough. I love you more than anything."

"I love you too, Daddy. Grandma?"

Diana walks over and hands Lily a folded up piece of paper. Lily hands it to Tom with a smile. "I made this for you."

It read Get Well Soon, with a stick figure picture of Tom. The background was done nice and Tom could recognize his mother's drawing.

"Grandma helped me make it."

"It's wonderful, both of you, thank you so much."

Diana walks over to her son and extends her arms. "Hi, Mum."

"Are you okay, dear? Are you pain? What can I do?"

"I'm fine, really. You don't have to worry about anything. My leg doesn't hurt too bad and my chest hurts but it's my fault. You're fine."

"Are you sure that you're okay?"

"I'm positive."

"I love you so much," Diana says and holds him tighter.

"I love you too, Mum."

"When are you coming home?" Lily asks after they finish their embrace.

"At least not for a few days." Molly replies.
