Lucy entered the room

T: Hi Lucy... I'm sorry I reacted like that.. What did Angela mean when she said while I still can?

L: Tim.. I don't know how to say this but the doctor estimated that you only have a month left with us..

*Lucy said with sadness*

T: Oh Luce. I'm sorry i wish we had more time so i could make this all up to you

*Tim said remorseful and regretful*

L: I know you didn't know Tim.. I just hope we will have enough time with each other and our daughter..

T: Come here Lucy..

Tim pulled Lucy into a hug. That hug lasted for 30 minutes, Lucy cried into Tims shoulder knowing she wont have enough time to spend with him remaking all those memories with their daughter. After that 30 minute hug Lucy called in the doctor to discharge Tim.

Doc: Well Mr. and Mrs. Bradford i believe it is safe for Mr. Bradford to go home. Hope that you three will spend your time together well..

L: Thank you so much for everything doc.

Doc: No Problem stay safe.

Lucy signed the discharge papers and drove the three of them home. Tim sat in the back with his daughter trying to bond with the time he still has left with her..

T: So Lucy, this is our daughter?

L: Yeah she is.

T: How old and what's her name?

L: She's almost 2 and her name is Lily Mae Bradford

T: It's a beautiful name, i just feel guilty that i won't be there for the rest of her life...

L: Don't be Tim it's not your fault that this happened to you.

T: But honestly i feel guilty that i won't be there for her when she's older. She wont have a father let alone a father figure.

L: She will, I will always remind her of you. I think she'll want to continue on your legacy.

Li: Dada! I wuv you.

T: I love you too Lily..

*Tim said feeling both happy and guilty*

Lucy's POV:

I need to make the most of this time I still have with Tim. Make as many memories for our daughter so that i can show her those memories when she is older. How will I survive without Tim?

3rd Person POV:

Lucy drove them home first and placed Lily in her bed so she could rest. Once Lily fell asleep she went to the living room to talk with Tim.

L: Tim will both of us ever move on when you go?

T: I'm not sure Lucy but you know ill always be with you..

L: I know but what about taking care of Lily ? We were suppose to do that together.

T: Lucy, you know i would do anything to change what happened but i cant. We have so many friends who will help you through this.

L: I guess but they will never be like you..

T: Thats why we both need to spend as much time as possible together so you wont regret anything when im gone. We should document everything for our daughter so that she will remember..
