The next morning, it was 6:45am the time I woke up. My neck and back was sore with pain, I could hardly move without flinching. I open my eyes slowly to see I was still next to the window but on the cold, hard ground.

"Miss Adele, are you alright?" A nurse quickly rushes to my side, lifting me up slowly so I wasn't in so much pain.

"Yes thank you, I fell asleep next to the window and must of fell to the ground while I was sleeping haha." I give the nurse a smile and lay down on the bed feeling my aching muscles ease. The lady smiles back and grabs a remote next to my bed, pressing a button slowly lift the top end of my bed rise.

"Well, there you go Miss Adele... Doctor Foremen will be in soon with breakfast so try to relax for the time being." She smiles one time and walk out the door in such a rush, until I realise that air was cold and Berry was standing at the end of the bed with a huge, glowing smile on her face.

"Morning Berry." I smile and shift awkwardly in my bed as my muscles scream in pain.

"Morning- uh..?"

"Ivy." I giggle, she blushes and sits right next to me giggling too.

"Am I going to see mummy and daddy tonight!?" Berry jumps up and down the bed making me groan in pain, she immediately stops.

"Ivy, what's wrong? Are you okay?" She asks.

"I'm fine, I just have a sore back that's all." I reply.

"Oh, okay.... But when do I see mummy and daddy?" I see the desperation in her eyes, she wants her parents, she wants them to know that she loves them deeply and wants them to know her unfinished requests get them to do things she hasn't gotten to do. I can't let her wait another week for me to get out of the hospital and see her parents. I just can't.

"Today... You'll see them today."

*************#**************

After asking and convincing Doctor Foremen to let me go to Berry's parents, he finally gave in and said yes. One of Doctor Foremen's male nurses had to drive me to the Poller's house which was just ten minutes down the road, I could see Berry standing at the door step as I walked closer and closer to the house. And right now Berry was beaming joy, clapping her hands and jumping with happiness, I turn away from the door watching the car slowly do a U turn and drive back to the hospital. I turn back to Berry and knock on the door lightly.

"You excited Berry?" She nods and giggles hysterically. Slowly opening the door a women with long, blonde hair and light brown eyes peeks her head out the door giving me quizzical look and steps outside crossing her arms across her chest.

"Can I help you?" I smile and entwine my hands together taking a small step forward.

"Yes, um.... I have a message for you and your husband from your daughter.... Berry." The lady's eyes widen and she pulls my arm dragging me inside. She guides me to their living room and set my down on a very plush couch.

" Bruce!! Come down here." The lady sits next to me as a man with black hair and green eyes runs down the stairs with a grim, hollow look stuck to his face.

" Yes, what's wrong?" The man looks at me and frowns wondering who I was and wondering why I was here.

" Bruce, this girl says she has a message for us." The lady say gently.

" So, who's the message from." The man spits back.

" That's the thing, it's from Berry." The man's eyes widen and he falls into a chair, Berry stands next to me giving me a look to speak up.

" Yes, this may sound weird but when I woke up from my three year coma Berry appeared and said she need help to get to heaven... Her final resting place but the only thing stopping her to get there was never having a chance to say goodbye to you, she begged for me to tell you her message." I look at both of the parents, they both had tears welling in their eyes as they take in every word I say.

" What's the message, please tell us." The lady says with a soft whisper. I look up to Berry and she nods to me, showing me that she was ready. Berry leans over and starts to whisper the message in my ear, as she whispers I start to tell the couple at the same time.

" She says, tell them that I miss them and I love them with all my heart, I don't want them to grieve anymore I want them to keep living and have another child so they can be happy again. I also want them to know I'm sorry for every time I said no or say I didn't love them because I do, that I regret running away from them every time I didn't want to do something or never get what I wanted. And that they will always be in my heart for infinity and beyond." As I speak both of them are crying holding each other tightly in each others arms, I try to hold back the tears but it's so hard a few times a couple of tears fall down, I wipe them away as soon as I finish the man and woman both have tears streaming from their eyes. Not even caring that their tops are soaked with their tears.

I turn to Berry who is crying as well and smile, finally her message was heard after eight years someone had helped and finally her parents can never grieve again and feel ashamed of their daughters lose. Berry can rest in peace, but she's still hear.

"Do you want to tell Berry something, she is here." The parents head shoot up and they start looking around the room trying to find her. They look back me to find me giggling.

"Ivy tell them I'm next to you." I can hear Berry laugh a little, as I shift in my seat a bit.

"Berry is next to me, she's wanting to talk to you." Both parents have a small smile on their faces.

"Hi baby, we miss you just as much as you miss us." The dad speaks up and stared next to me, squinting trying to see Berry but fails.

"Tell them I know and that I said goodbye and that I will see them again." I stare at Berry as she gives me a weak smile and turns to the window staring at a gentle light that rains down on her, I turn to her parents as their eyes open wide.

"Berry?" The mum whimpers as she stares at her long gone daughter standing in front of her, Berry stands proudly in a yellow glittery light and her hair sways lightly as a soft breeze squeezes through an open window. Berry has no more scars or bruises, there is no hollow look in Berry's face anymore, her emerald green eyes shine as orbs that can hypnotise you in every way...... She was as radiant as the sun.

"Goodbye mummy and daddy." She whispers. Slowly disappearing into the sparkling light leaving her parents dumb founded and still not moving an inch. They stand there and watch their first child disappear before there eyes.

Berry was now at peace.
