RUN

Poor Daisy

I am frozen by the sudden furry from the Doctor and can only feel sorry for River but also disproving. Why keep something as big as a child away from your husband? Unless it's not his... wait, I know nothing of their relationship to jump to conclusions. It's kind of sad to realise that the person who means the most to you has a whole other life. One where you're not included. I stand oddly by, watching the whole scene unfold.

"I couldn't tell you," River finally utters, her eyes still closed.

"Why not?," He demands, more impatient for answers.

"I was in prison when I realized. I couldn't take care of her and give her a good life. So I escaped after I had her and left her where I thought she would have been taken care of."

"Where River? I want to know where you thought our little girl would be better taken care of than with her own parents?"

"You talk as if we lived together in a big house with jobs and incomes to support her. We can't even converge into the same time line. We are always meeting each other in different points of our lives. How could we take care of her like that?" River stares at the Doctor shaken and shall I dare say tearful. I look at Daisy to see how she is taking this in. She is crying silent tears and her parents are too caught up in their drama to see.
