'Cause what about all these children And what about all their parents And what about about all their crowns they wear'
Jeffrey's POV
She ran through the halls. Spencer was right behind her, following her. She couldn't come in. She cried and screamed. Doctors and nurses trying to calm her down. Then giving her a tranquilizer she blacked out.

The light of the day woke me up, I was in a hospital bed, looking around me I see Spencer on the couch, awake. "what happened?" I said rubbing my eyes, "You came inside the hospital running looking for your mom" he said, then right away I stood up and ran towards the door, but Spencer held my wrist, "hey, hey! it's going to be okay, she was in surgery when you came in like crazy, but now she's resting, she's okay." his words ended softly and quietly, I stopped squirming in his arms and started crying, "hey, it's going to be okay love" Spencer held my chin up then wiped my tears, then walked me back to the bed "it's going to be okay, it's going to be okay" then falling asleep on his lap. -
"shh, don't wake her up" I heard someone said, opening my eyes it felt like deja vu, all over again, my cheek was on the pillow, it smelled like old bleach, "good morning princess" looking up I see dad, I sat up and hugged him, "my little princess" he chuckled as I kept hugging him tight, then looking behind him was Spencer's sister, I stood up, hugging her aswell. "I just heard that you got here last night, and that they had to hold you down, but your mom is resting in her room" he said, my body felt tired even though I rested for more than 8 hours, "how is she?" my voice cracked, "she's been sleeping, this morning she opened her eyes and talked with her for a bit, she's okay" hearing that made me exhale the air that I didn't realize I've been holding in, "w-what happened?" I asked, "let's just clear our minds for a bit okay, then we'll talk later, but you look like you haven't eaten since yesterday morning" he said rubbing my shoulder, "I haven't" i said chuckling "and where's spencer?" "he's out the hall, stretching his legs since you fell asleep on them" we both chuckled and left the room.
"Here, take some of my clothes" Spencer's sister smiled, "oh it's okay, I can go to my parents house and get some of mine" "oh, you can't" she said, "why not?" "well, it's a crime scene, and there's police and investigators, I don't think that you would want to go in" I looked at her, just by her saying that made my stomach sick, I nodded and took the clothing. After we ate Spencer and I drove home, dad stayed in the hospital with mom, "I'm going to take a shower babe" I said, he nodded and yawned then plopped into bed, I opened the bathroom door, getting flashbacks from yesterday night, "Carmen, I really need to talk to you."
"Finally!" I screamed, then watched Spencer's grandma walking out, I looked inside kinda quizzical, then I heard the door close shut, and proceeded to take a shower. When I got out I see that Spencer is not in bed, and in that moment I get a call, "Hello?" "Hey baby, so I'm driving my grandma home, but I'll meet you at the hospital" "Alright, stay safe" I said, then hanged up, I walked into the room with a towel around me, but something caught my attention, like a shadow past the window, I run to see but it was just a car passing by, 'there's something wrong with me' I said to myself but I decided to ignore it.
'what about all their wishes wrapped up like garland roses round their little heads, I said a prayer for a third time'
