Goodbye. The Final Ending.

Problems rising.

After I had my break down over Claire, Tan, Cory, Jack and Anna took me downstairs in the living room. Moments later I heard them take her out of the house in the ambulance. I couldn't watch them; I was hurt enough as it is. Soon after they took her out Tan went to get Mia as the person who kept her calm had to leave too.

I sat still on the sofa. My hands were trembling cold. My eyes were fixed in position, I don't even know what. As i sat there glaring straight ahead if me, Jack and Anna were with Cory talking in the kitchen. Soon after Tan came down with Mia giggling with each other as they walked in the kitchen too.

"Can I hold her?"

I looked at Tan asking if I can hold her. She looked at me then Mia as she smiled. Right as she went to walk over Cory grabbed her arm.

"You sure he's stable? I mean, how he was acting earlier. Why don't I just hold her to make sure he is, 'stable'?"

"Cory you being serious? It's his child. She's all he's got left."

I saw Tan give Cory a stink eye. She turned her back to him then carried on smiling at Mia as she walked closer towards me. I smiled as Mia became closer.

Tan lifted her up carefully, keeping support on her head otherwise it would drop as it was too heavy for herself to hold up. When Tan passed her over to me cradled up in the blanket Mia took a little yawn; it was adorable. I held her body over my arms then using my other hand to give her head extra support, to make sure she was as comfortable as she could be.

Calmly bouncing her up and down, Tan took a seat next to me. She looked at Mia, smiling making little noises which made her laugh; Mia's eyes would scrunch up when she smiled which is an adorable feature she took from her mother.

Jack and Anna both came and sat on the sofa to the side, Cory seemed annoyed but I really couldn't be bothered to question at the moment. I just lost someone who was close to me...

"Um Josh? I know this might seem soon, I mean after everything that's happened but, where are you gonna love? I mean you can stay here but, do you have a job? Can you afford it?"

I should've thought about it sooner. At this point Mia doesn't have a future; well a proper one at least...

"Yeah I'm gonna apply for a job; I was planning to apply for one a while back but never had the time. But as for the house, I'm gonna try to keep it, that's if I can."

I looked back down at Mia to see her slowly falling asleep. I have to do this for her, Claire and Rachel... I know I can do it, I have to.

"What if you can't?"

As I turned my head Cory was stood there, leant up again the kitchen island. He has his arms crossed against his chest glaring at me. 

"Cory don't."

"No Anna, I'm sorry but he's jobless and has a child that's not even his; dont forget he probably can't even own to keep the house that will end him being homeless!"

"As I've said I was already planning on getting a job but I never had the time, and don't you dare say I could've tried harder because you know why I didn't have the time! Also this baby may not be mine in blood but I'm gonna be as much of her father as I possibly can because sadly she doesn't have one! Yes! I may become homeless if I can't sort anything out but I will! Not her! I'll take her to foster care so she can have a good life!"

"Why don't you take her now! Why don't you Josh! At least she then you know for sure she'll be okay!"

At this point we were throwing our voices at each other like roaring tigers. Mia was screaming her poor little heart out. I wanted to calm her down but I ain't letting Cory talk to me like this. I know I'm gonna do everything I say and better!

As Mia's screams got worse, Anna soon came over and took her off me. She held her between her and Jack to keep her safe.

"Josh just leave it."

Tan grabbed my arm to keep me down and to get me to calm down. I tried to as Mia was in the room. But after everything that's happened I'm not letting someone talk to me like this. But I knew she was right. I took a deep breath and calmed down...

"I don't get why you didn't save Rachel."

What? What did he just say?! I've told him why! I fucking told him! After everything he's acting like this! I tried to leave it but he has to go and act like this!
My face went red as my fists clenched. I instantly threw myself up off the sofa and stormed over in front of him.

"You know why! Don't you dare say that! She told me to save Mia; don't you think I thought about saving her! Of course I did I loved her!"

"Then why let her die!"

We were in front of each others faces screaming at the top of our lungs. Our faces red, saliva projecting out of our mouths.

"Shut up! Just shut up!"
Jack shouted.

Mia's screams became louder. I hated it. Every cry and inch of pain she showed.

"Josh!"

Tan stood up and grabbed me, telling me to move back. My breaths became slower and more in sync.

"We're you gonna hit me Josh? You know like when you pushed me up again the wall when I mentioned about the baby after Rachel fell?"

I dunno why he carried on. He was gaining nothing out of this. Ignoring it as much as I could, I continued to sit down with Tan...

"No wonder she chose to die."

Bang!

I swung around with one punch to the face and made him go weak to the floor.

"Fuck. You."
