ZARA
Grayson Picks Chloe Up Bridal Style And Practically Runs Out Of The Restaurant While I Leave Some Money On The Table And Grab Emma From Her High Chair Following Grayson Out Of The Restaurant.
Grayson Runs Down The Street To Where His Car Is Parked And Throws Chloe In The Backseat Not Bothering To Fasten Her Seatbelt.I Quickly Follow And Get In With Emma Still In My Arms,Watching As Grayson Anxiously Presses Buttons On His GPS.
"Grayson,Please Calm Down.It Has Happened Before,She'll Be Alright."I Tell Him Quietly,Hoping To Soothe His Nerves.I Place A Hand On His Thigh And Rub Up And Down.
"How Can I Be Calm When I Can Possibly Be The Cause Of My Own Daughter's Death."He Snaps.I Frown And Pull My Hand Back.
"Mommy!"Chloe Cries From The Backseat Reminding Me That She Is Struggling To Breath.I Open Up My Bag And Pull Out My Inhaler Placing It On Her Lips And Pressing The Top.
"It's Okay Honey,You'll Be Okay."I Coo Grabbing Her Hand Into My Own And Rubbing It Softly.
When We Get To The Hospital Grayson Runs Inside With Chloe Once Again In His Arms And Me Following Close Behind With Emma.
"I Need A Doctor,Now!" Grayson Bellows At No One In Particular.Two Nurses Rush In Our Direction With A Stretcher And An Oxygen Mask In Hand.They Place Chloe On It And Place The Mask Over Her Mouth And Nose.Grayson And I Follow Until One Of The Nurses Stop Us.
"Name And Problem." She Simply Says.Grayson Is Pacing Frantically Looking At Chloe Being Wheeled Away.
"Chloe Leah Archer.She Had Some Blueberry Pancakes And She's Allergic To Blueberries."I Tell Her.She Looks Down At Her Clipboard And Writes Something.
"Age?" She Glances Back Up At Me.
"She's Turning Five In Two Weeks." I Tell Her.After A Few More Questions She Leads Us To The Waiting Room And Tells Us She'll Be Back With News On Chloe Soon.
Grayson Sits Impatiently On His Chair,His Knee Bobbing Up And Down And His Hands Tugging Harshly At His Now Disheveled Hair.
"Grayson You Need To Calm Down,I Promise She'll Be Okay."I Tell Him Soothingly.He Sighs And Rests His Head On My Lap Where Emma Once Was.I Silently Brush My Fingers Through His Hair Trying To Give Him Some Kind Of Comfort.
"I'm A Horrible Father."He Says.His Voice Cracking At The End Making My Throat Tighten.I Looked Dow At Him Sympathetically,He Is Making A Big Deal Out Of Nothing But So Did I The First Time I Fed Her Blueberries.
I Even Told One Of The Nurses To Call The Police Because I Was A Murderer.But I Have Learnt From My Mistakes And I Never Fed Her That Again.Well,Apart From The Day I Bought Her A "Bubble Gum" Popsicle From The Ice Cream Man But It Turned Out To Be A Blueberry One.I Almost Killed The Man.
"No You're Not,Grayson.It Happened To Me Too,You'll Learn From This And It Won't Happen Again.You've Got To Go Through All The Things I Went Through."I Lightly Laugh Watching As Grayson Laughs Along With Me.
"You're Right.I'll Learn From My Mistakes And I'll Be The Best Father Ever."He Smiles One Of His Beautiful Real Smiles,One That You Know Is Genuine By The Way Their Eyes Wrinkle And Their Smile Stretches Across Their Whole Face.
"Zara,I Know It's Not The Best Time To Ask This Bu-"Before He Can Say Anything Else A Doctor Comes Into The Room Making Grayson Stop.He Quickly Stands To His Feet And Rushes To Her.
"Mr. And Mrs.Archer?"She Asks.I Think About Telling Her That I'm Not Mrs.Archer But It's Really Not Necessary.
"Yes,How Is My Daughter?"Grayson Asks.The Doctor Looks Down At His Clipboard Before Answering.
"Chloe Is Completely Fine,She Should Be Ready To Go In Less Than An Hour.I Just Need You To Fill Sone Papers And Give Her Some More Medicine Incase She Struggles To Breath Again But Other Than That The Blueberries Have Diluted And She Will Be Completely Fine."He Explains.Grayson Sighs And Surprises Me By Hugging Me And Kissing My Cheek.
"Can We See Her?" The Doctor Nods And Leads Grayson Into A Room While I'm Left To Fill All The Paperwork.
It Takes Me A Few Minutes To Fill And Sign All The Papers And Once I'm Done I Head Into The Hospital Room With Emma Sleeping Peacefully Inside Her Baby Carrier.
Chloe Is Laying Comfortably Under A Pair Of White Sheets And Grayson Sits Beside Her In A Hospital Chair.
"The Doctor Said We Can Leave Now."I Tell Him.He Nods And Gets Up,Pulling Chloe Up And Into His Arms.She Is Already Dressed Back Into Her Normal Attire And Her Hospital Gown Is Folded Neatly Beside Her Bed.
Once We Get Back To The Hotel Grayson Parks The Car And This Time Grabs Emma's Baby Carrier Instead Of Grabbing Chloe.I Unbuckle Chloe's Belt And Grab Her Hand Into Mine.
The Elevator Is Filled With Tapping Noises From Chloe Hitting The Walls With The Point Of Her Shoe And Occasional Cries From Emma Who Hasn't Been Fed.
The Elevator Opens With A Ding And We All Scramble Out Desperate For Some Room Service.The Minute We Enter The Room Grayson Grabs The Room Telephone And Orders Some Food While I Prepare Emma's Milk.
The Rest Of The Day Is Spent With Laughs From Chloe And Grayson Who Chase Each Other Around The Suite With The Incident Long Forgotten Already.At Night Chloe Snuggles Her Teddy Bear To Sleep While I Snuggle Myself Into My Own Life-Size Teddy Bear.He Wraps His Arms Around My Waist And Pulls Me Against His Bare Chest.
"Marry Me,Zara."Grayson Whispers Against My Ear But I'm Already Half Asleep And Too Delusional To Actually Process The Words Coming From His Lips.
