"Growing up, I never wanted to be married. I never wanted to have children. Blaze changed that, he changed me. I will forever be grateful for all the things he did for me, the love he showed our daughter. She may not remember her father, but she has endless videos and pictures to look back on. My heartbreaks for her more than anyone else. I know what it's like growing up without support. Her dad wanted everything for her. Blaze, I want you to be at peace knowing that I will always support our daughter. I'll be there to cuddle her close when she has nightmares. I'll console her when her thoughts of you lead to heartache." My words got caught in my throat as my tears began to fall, I dropped to my knees.
"Sienna, Sienna, Sienna, wake up." Savanna shook me until my eyes opened.
"What happened? You passed out and hit your head. He's dead isn't he?" I felt the rush of emotions come over me. I choked on my tears.
"He's in surgery right now, but I need you to get up." The nurses helped me off the floor. I hugged the first person I saw. A sympathetic nurse held me in her arms.
"It's okay ma'am. Let me get you an ice pack and we need to follow concussion protocol." She slowly released me from her grip.
"No, I'm okay. I need to go."
"Ma'am please."
"Take me to him." I looked at Savanna who was just as shattered as I was.
"I'll be back, Jennifer. I promise, I just need to..." The lump in my throat prevented me from saying anything else.
"I know. I'll be here Sisi." I have the best friend in the world.
"Don't let anyone in this hospital room." I looked at the group of nurses that still surrounded me.
"I've taken care of that. Two people are on their way to make sure you're protected Jennifer. Sienna, let's go." Savanna pulled my arm as we rushed to her car. Thankfully the other hospital where Blaze's surgery was being performed was only fifteen minutes away.
My legs felt like they were weighted in cement. I couldn't bear the thought of my vision coming true.
"We're here for Blaze Richter." Savanna did all the talking. "Is he still in surgery?"
"I can't discuss that with you right now if you ladies can wait over there." She was so nonchalant that heat was radiating from my body.
"If you don't tell me something. I swear to God everyone in this hospital will have to pull me off your ass." I yelled, grabbing the collar of her shirt.
"Sienna, calm down." Savanna attempted to mediate the situation, but I couldn't wait for information like that. She could've at least looked up at us when she answered.
Security guards separated her from my grip as Savanna carried me out of the hospital kicking and screaming.
"Sienna, I know you're hurt. I am too, but you have to calm down. It's going to be okay. I promise."
