Destined Love

Responsibilities

Hailey's POV:
I cuddled Gabriella gently as she slept soundly in my arms, while ignoring the looks from the people behind me. Assholes. Can't a girl hold her newly found baby sister in peace, I said while mentally rolling my eyes.

I still had my back facing the door so I couldn't exactly see anyone but I could tell someone was approaching me, through the sound of their foot steps which echoed through the silent room.

A hand was on my shoulder, I swiftly turned around giving him a questionable look.
"Your in no condition to leave yet, you wounds aren't properly healed yet" he said while looking at the small bandages around my arms. "Listen doc, if I felt hurt or uncomfortable in anyway I would tell you, now if you'll excuse me I need to change and take my sister home with me" I said snarkily as I turned to leave the room but I was stopped when I bumped into 2 police officers.

"Excuse me," I bent my head down hoping they wouldn't recognise me. "Your the girl from the accident, we were just looking for you. We're here to ask you some questions concerning the accident, so if you'll leave baby with one of the nurses and come with us it'd be great". Damn my rotten luck.

He said Flashing me a smile while I gave him an unamused look.

Ofcourse, I didn't give my little sister to any fucking nurse. But, I followed them.

We walked for some minutes before they took me to an empty emergency room, one if them gestured for me to sit down in a chair, which I did as they pulled two other chairs from the side.

The tall one which I assumed was the captain cleared his throat before speaking.

"What's your name?" He asked with an eyebrow up.
"Hailey. Hailey Roberts"
"Alright, listen Miss Roberts. I'm going to ask you a few questions, and I need direct answers. Your only supposed to explain when I ask you too and your meant to answer truthfully. Do. You. Understand?
He asked as his voice dropped at the end, I could only nod signifying that it was a yes.

"How old are you?"
"15"
Where are you from?
"Texas,United States"
"Where are your parents now and what do they do?"
"My father is a project manager in a company and my mother is a flight attendant. "
He nodded his head, while the other one took notes. For only God knows what.

My attention moved from them to Gabriella who was about to start crying, I quickly picked her up from my lap to my chest and cradled her as she calmed down.

"Can I go now?" I said with my eyes still fixed on Gabriella.
"No, not yet. Those were back ground questions, we are now going to ask you questions concerning the accident."

My heart stopped as soon I heared this, I didn't want to talk about this ever. I didn't want to remember that night. Who would want to talk about something like that?

I still had my eyes fixed on Gabriella, I didn't want to look at them.
I couldn't let them see the vulnerability in my eyes.

"I don't know." I muttered gently still avoiding their gazes."You don't know or you don't wanna talk about it?" The other one said softly.

"I don't want to fucking talk about it okay?! Their dead and that's all that matters. I said with tears threatening to fall from my eyes. "......we were just.....we were just driving and then Brooke started to complain about her stomach hurting. We thought it was nothing until she started screaming..... I- we didn't know what to do.....at all" I managed to say between my erupting cries. I tried to control myself to not wake up Gabriella but it was hard.

After a while, my breathing became normal and I wipped my tears. As they kept on looking at me.
"Just so you know, Brooke's parents and family wanted nothing to do with the baby, so they disowned her. And she started living with Jamal, we went for a late night drive around the neighbourhood,when the accident happened. So if you'll excuse me I'll be taking Gabriella home now.

I got up and walked away.

I entered my hospital room and locked the door. Changing into my now washed clothes from the previous night. When I was done I held Gabriella and walked towards the door and opened it to see the officers. I gently went back in and gave him a listening ear.
"Hailey.... you do know your not able to take the child home unless you have decided that your parents will legally adopt her?"
"Yeah, I know" I said while looking down at the ground.
"So, you can either 1. Give Gabriella to her biological grandparents,to take care of her
2. Your parents adopting her, with the consent of the grandparents or family of the deceased. Or a Foster home"
"Over.my.dead.body, you will take Gabriella to a Foster home or Brooke's parents over my dead body." I stated dangerously.
"Call my parents, they'll know what to do." I said while pushing past him.
