MollyPOV
I was waken out my sleep from my phone constantly ringing.
"Uh hello."
"?? Yes is this the Sister of Melissa and auntie of Hope?"
"Yes it is. What's going on?"
"This is Cali Mercy Hospital we have Melissa here she's on her last breath. Did you know she had cancer?"
I sat in shock as I listen to the words come from the doctors lips. I could believe this why didn't she tell me?
"Hello Ms. Davidson you there."
"Uh yeah yeah. No I did not know she had cancer."
"Well she's here and she asking for you."
"Ok I'm in my way. I'll be there in 10." I quickly hung up the phone and slid on some shoes. I grabbed my key. My head was racing.
"Kiara get up please I need you to drive me to the hospital."
"What you going into labor?"
"No my sister is in the hospital."
"Normally I would be against this but it's a emergency." She says
She hopes and and slide on her nike flops and a hoodie and helped me downstairs and to the car.
"What's all the commotion?" Jay asked with Ashly and Erin laying on the pull out bed.
"My sister is in the hospital on her last breath." I say in a panick.
At The Hosiptal
I was in the room with Melissa. She looked so sick. And skinner since the last time I saw her. We was in convo. It was hard for her to speak.
"Molly I need you to take Hope in. I don't want her in the system." She said barely audible
"What about your mom?"
"She passed years back. Please promise me my baby will not be put in the system. The doctors made it where I signed over my rights all you have to do is sign. This is my last wish please. I left money to help you with her needs. Please say you'll do it."
"I will do it." I say as the tears running down my face.
"Thank .... You." She said in one final breath and with that the monitor beeped. I broke down more. I can't believe she gone. I wiped my eyes as I got up.
"Ms.Davidson can you sign these papers and Hope will be free to go with you." I sign the papers. I don't know how I'm even able to have custody of a 8 year old but I wasn't going to argue. It was her dying wish for Hope not to be in the system. I wrapped my arm around a crying Hope and we walked out with Kiara , Ashly , her baby & , Jay following. I got in the car and got in the back seat with Hope. I simply just held her in my arms the whole car ride. This was the worst thing ever. I know exactly how she's feeling.
Once we was home I took Hope up the guest room witch is now her room and layed in the bed with her. I don't want her to feel like she's alone.
"Auntie Molly?"
"Yes baby."
"Thank you for not abandoning me."
"I would never." I kissed her forehead and she drifted of into a sleep & I soon did the same."
Short Chapter I know but I couldn't write anymore. I was to much.
