Robert's POV
The last momentsBella bringing Robbie in only made you feel worse, I mean how do you hold your baby knowing that they will never have their mother again. A mother who loved him so much. In an hour they turn off this machine and I've lost her forever. I have to learn to live again in a dark and empty world.
Bella is holding Robbie right by Mercedes, she places him right next to her. She's talking to him telling him all about his mom. He's never going to remember this, he's not going to remember her love her warmth, the lengths she would go through for the ones she loves.
They're here! It's time. The doctors walk into the room, they're pressing buttons and removing tubes, this is the first time in a long time you've just seen her beautiful face all clear, like she's sleeping.
