Recap:

“I hope Harry and Niall haven’t messed up the house or else they are in huge trouble.” Liam said. I just witnessed a Daddy Direction moment. YAY! We hastened towards the house hoping that it wasn’t messed up.

“Honey I’m home!” shouted Louis.

So far so good. The hallway was clean enough. We went to the living room and it looked like a grenade had hit it. Harry and Niall were nowhere to be found.

“HARRY! NIALL! GET DOWN HERE THIS INSTANT!” yelled Liam. They are in some deep fudge.

Minutes later their footsteps rushed down the stairs. “H-hey Liam…” mumbled Harry nervously while Niall scratched his neck.

“What happened here?” demanded Liam.

“W-well you see. We were bored so we decided to eat some food while playing Mario Kart. I spilled the food on the floor and Harry got the vacuum cleaner but it burst everywhere so we went to play Mario Kart upstairs.” Niall explained. Boys will be boys.

“Well you have to clean it. Now!” barked Liam.

“Fine” they huffed and started getting cleaning items. T

he living room was really destroyed. The cream carpet now looked black; the brown sofas were full of crisps and half eaten sandwiches. There was orange juice spilled on one of the sofas and on the coffee table.

“We might as well go out and let them clean you know.” Zayn said.

“Yeah you-“. I was interrupted by my phone ringing. “Hello?” I asked while going to the kitchen to give myself some privacy.

“Hello is this Caroleen Stevens?” said the voice on the other line.

“Yes it is. Why are you calling me?” I replied.

“I am to inform you that your mother is in the hospital. She was involved in a car accident on her way home from the airport.”  The person told me.

“You’re joking right?” I quivered with tears building up in my eyes. My mum CANNOT be in the hospital.

“No I am sorry. She is at James’ Hospital” said the voice before hanging up. The tears rolled freely down my face. I exited the kitchen and walked slowly to the living room.

“Carri why are you crying?” asked Harry as soon as I was in the living room. “Guys we need to go to James’ Hospital” I cried. Then I erupted into sobs.

********************************************************************************************************************************

I drifted to the car, not aware of what was happening as I cried my heart out. I could hear Harry and Olli trying to comfort me but it couldn’t work, the words of the speaker were still implanted in my brain.

She was involved in a car accident on her way home from the airport. I still couldn’t believe it. I cried throughout the whole journey without talking to anyone. “

It’ll be alright.” Muttered Harry into my ear then kissed my forehead.

When we arrived at the hospital I made a beeline for the receptionist. She was a middle aged lady with an ugly perm. She was chewing a wad of gum with her mouth open.
