Becoming the Future

Chapter 42

Three more months have gone by. That means she's been missing for six. They baby will come soon, but I don't think it will make anything better.

Fitz has stopped going to work. He stopped getting out of bed, meaning he doesn't eat and doesn't drink. This has only been going on for a month, and somehow I can get something into him when he sleeps, but it's gettibg harder. At least he is sleeping.

I really need everything to get better. I'm hurting too. And the baby will need its dad. And Fitz and I really need our baby girl back.

Sophie ctied as she wrote this. She was sitting at the desk in her room, hand on her stomach. She glanced at Fitz. He was laying there with bags under his teal eyes. They were blank, not sparkly like they used to be. He hasn't shaved so he has some facial hair. And he smells. He is really skinny, but Sophie had managed to get him to eat and drink without him knowing.

She doesn't know if she could hold on much longer. And if she didn't, Fitz wouldn't and then what would happen to their baby.

Everything is leading to bad. "Fitz?" She sais, know in he wouldn't react. "I'm going to take a walk and then go and visit Edaline." She turned to Sandor who had been keeping her company for the past month. "Keep an eye on him, okay?" He nodded. She walked out of her house, towards the lake.

It was beautiful and the sun was setting. The lake sparkled and it reminded her of the old Fitz that almost always had his special smile on his face and his eyes that always sparkled. She was crying again. She looked down at her giant stomach and started talking to the baby.

"You know what?" She said. "I think you shouldn't come out. Because that way, you'll stay safe and you'll still be mine." She stood silently for a little bit. "Your big sister was a wonderful little girl," she finally said,"And I hopd you will get to see her someday." She was quiet again. Maybe she wouldn't go by Edaline. The sunset was pretty enough to distract her.

She sat down on the ground. She watched the colors fade away to the sparkly night sky. Thwn she heard rustling. She got up as fast as a 9 month pregnant person could and looked around.

Standing there was Mr.Forkle. He wasn't in a disguised but Sophie knew it was him. "Mr.Forkle!" She said. She ran to him amd hugged him.

"Why are you going around talking to yourself and breaking my heart with all this sadness?" He joked. "And by the way, my name is Leonardo. I thought you would like to know."

"I'm sorry." She said, sniffling. "But my daughter has been missing for 6 months. I think I'd start going crazy. Anyways, I was talking to the baby."

"Oh, yeah. About that. We have some news about your daughter. And instead of telling you I think I should show you."

A/N I seriously cried writing the first part. Then I got all happy because I know what will happen. What do you guys think will happen?
