Hart's Desire (Complete)

20💄

It's been three months since I started at Glamor Global and I love it so much. Tiffany is so sweet as well as Sidney and they allow me to leave at lunch to check on mom when I need to.

No change at all in her condition and as hard as I'm losing hope I'm still hopeful that she will wake up.

When we don't have customers we have been secretly working on Poppy's baby shower. She gave all of her baby clothes away beside a few pieces so Holland wants to do something special for her.

"Ayla will do you me a favor and call Poppy and asked if she can come down here we want to talk about eyelashes," Holland said.

"Sure I can do that," I said pulling out my phone.

☎️ Hello?

☎️ Hey Poppy can you possibly come down to the store? Your mom needs to talk to you about lashes.

☎️ Sure but I will have to bring the kids I don't have anyone to watch them.

☎️ That's fine I will be glad to help with them. See you soon.

☎️ Ok, I'll be there shortly.

By the time Poppy showed up with Ryder and Wren we were able to lock the store and while she was in the room with Holland we pulled out the tables and gifts and food.

I unlocked the door for Daisy and she was carrying a big cake. "Is she here?"

"Yeah in her mom's office." I smiled.

"Let's go out there and have a look at the lashes," Holland said.

When Holland and Poppy walked out her mouth dropped when we all screamed SURPRISE!

"What is going on?" She asked.

"It's your surprise baby shower! We know you gave all your baby stuff away." Holland said.

"Oh, you guys that's so nice of you." Poppy said wiping her eyes.

We all sit around and eat cake and watched her open her gifts. We had such a good time.

It was nice to be included in family stuff. I love my brother but I have felt alone since he left and mom was always so sick.

We were cleaning up when my phone rang.

☎️ Hello?

☎️ Ayla Fox?

☎️ This is her.

☎️ Miss Fox. This is one of the nurses at long-term care and well your mother has taken a turn for the worse so I suggest you get here soon.

☎️ Oh god! Ok, I'll be right there. Thanks for calling.

I got off the phone and grabbed my bag and was frantic.

"Ayla, what's the matter?" Holland asked.

"It's my mom she worse I'm sorry but I have to go," I said grabbing my keys.

"Oh, honey you can't drive in this condition let me drive you," Holland said.

Holland rushed to her office and grabbed her purse telling Poppy what was going on and we rushed out the door in Hollands truck.

"I'm so sorry honey. You might want to let Hart know so he can be there." She said.

Your right I better text him.

📱 Hart your mom is taking me to long term my mom has taken a turn for the worst and I am too upset to drive.

📱 Oh shit! I'll be there soon.

We pull up and rush inside and up to her room and she has a bunch of things on her face and I don't know what is going on.

"What is wrong?" I asked.

"She has had to be intubated and is now on life support. You may want to contact your brother because she's not going to last long." The nurse said.

"What really?" I said crying trying to get my phone out of my pocket.

Holland walked over and embraced me as the nurse just stood there.

"Oh god, your Hollan Kane Maverick!" She said.

"I am but now isn't the time. Please we need our space." Holland said.

I dialed Christian's number.

☎️ Ayla what's wrong?

☎️ Christian I had to rush to long-term mom has been put on life support and she's not going to make it. They said you needed to get here.

☎️ Oh fuck! I'm sorry Ayla but I don't know if I can get there in time.

☎️ Then lets FaceTime and you tell her what you want.

☎️ Are you alone?

☎️ No Holland is here with me.

☎️ Ok, I'm glad you're not alone. Let's FaceTime so I can talk to her.

Listening to Christian pour his heart out to mom telling her how much he loved her and that he would always take care of me.

Once he hung up I sit down beside her bed and cried my eyes out. "Oh, mom how am I going to live without you?"

Hart rushed in the door and as soon as he saw he me came over and pulled me in his arms. "I'm so sorry Ayla."

"Now that Hart is here I'm going to go so you can be alone but if you need anything just call ok?"

"Thank you for everything Holland I appreciate it."

When Holland left I explained that Christian was on his way but wasn't sure if he would make it in time.

"Well, we won't leave your mom's side, Ayla. I will be right here with you for as long as you need me." He said.

He held me in his arms all night as I watched her chest move up and down. I can't believe this is happening.

The last time we talked I can't even remember what we even talked about. Did I tell her I loved her? I usually did.

I feel like she has been gone for a while and honestly, I just need to let her go.

I walked over to her bedside and picked up her hand. "Mom I want you to know that I love you so much and I'm not alone anymore I have Hart and Christian is on his way but if you can't hang on any longer I understand and it's ok to go." I cried.

I looked up at the monitors and they begin beeping and going crazy and I looked up as the nurses filled the room and in a matter of minutes, she was gone.

My heart was crushed in pieces.
