Angel Baby

Twenty questions

[Demi's POV]
The doctor left me with a dog and a shaking girl."Shhh, it's going to be alright,shhh." I tried my best to sooth her but it didn't have the biggest effect on her.
Probably because her sobs were so loud. Finally after about thirty minutes her cries were at a minimum. "What's your name sweetheart?" I asked in a very soft and quiet voice so I did not trigger more crying."R-rachel" she said so quiet I almost didn't hear it."That's a very pretty name." I said with a smile."Do you want to play a game?" I asked. Right after I said 'game' her eyes grew wide and she started to back away from me then the dog started to growl. I was very confused as to why she was so scared of me. Especially sense we were in a tight embrace only fifteen seconds ago. 'What happened to her?' I thought and shot her a questioning look."Hey, what's wrong?" I asked but she just shook her head.She was still backing up and eventually got off the bed and back up into the wall while Rex was still growling at me. I got off of the bed and approached her but she put her hands in front of her face and whimpered. I gently removed her hands from her face and looked into her eyes to find only pure terror."It's ok I won't ever hurt you ok. infact I wanted to play a game called twenty questions. Do you know how to play?" I asked carefully so I did not frighten her more.She just shook her head no so I explained the game and she seemed to calm down because she let me help her back onto the bed. "Ready?" I asked and she nodded."Ok. How old are you?" She held up eight fingers, I guess she was done talking."Do you know how to right?" She nodded."Ok let me go get you a piece of paper and a pen, stay here." I told her when I left the room to get the supplies.I found the receptionist and asked her for the stuff, which she gave me fairly quickly and I hurried back to the room to hand her the paper and pen. She took it with a small smile and a look as to say'thank you' and I returned it with another smile."Ok what happened with your eye?" I asked curiously. After about a minute she handed me the paper.'No one knows why it is like that but I am half albino which is why my eye is such a light blue and why I have the white spot around it. The sun only hurts if I am not wearing my special contacts or glasses and if I forget to color my white spot in with make up but other than that it is pretty healthy.' Is what it said but I wasn't really paying attention to it because I was so amazed at how an eight year old could write so well. 'Damn' I thought to myself but it turns out I was thinking out loud because a couple seconds later I heard the most heavenly little giggle in the whole world.It made my heart skip a beat. I gave her a big warm smile as to thank her for making me so warm and happy inside.

[Rachel's POV]
It would be lying if I said I wasn't relieved that Demi asked if I could write and left to get the supplies. Once she left I let out a sigh of relief and turned to Rex and told him to hug me. He obeyed the command and I hugged him too. We continued the game and it was kinda funny as she read what I wrote on the paper and said something funny. Before I could stop myself I let out a small giggle and she looked at me with a small smile. "Who was the man who was hurting you?" This was a question I was dreading and I didn't want to think about it let alone talk about it so I just shook my head and buried my face into her shoulder. I started to cry but she quickly went to sooth me. "You know what, that's enough questions for now." She said softly with a hint if disappointment in her voice but I calmed down a little. 'When can I leave and where will I go?' I wrote on the paper and handed it to her. "I don't know but I hope I can take you home with me. I will ask when we can leave." She said with a hopeful voice. "Do you want to ask the doctor to come in here or do you want me to go talk to him alone?" 'He can come in but can I have my bear and can you stay next to me?' I wrote on the paper before I gave it to her. She looked at me and smiled warmly and nodded. I returned the smile with another weak smile. "Do you now where it is?" She asked still keeping the smile on her face. 'It was on my chest when I was in the big car but then I fell asleep and woke up in here.' I wrote on the paper and handed it to her. "Okay I will go ask the doctor what happened to it. Be right back." She said as she started to get off the bed. She came back ten minutes later with my old torn bear. She gave it to me and I hugged it tight. I hugged the bear like I would hug my mom. Then I remembered my question. I put the bear on my lap and I started to write. It read
'What happened to mommy?'
She gave me a sympathetic look then she spoke.
"Your mommy is taking a really long nap but she won't wake up."
I didn't really understand but I nodded anyway. She opened her arms for a hug and I didn't hesitate. Instead  jumped into them. We stayed like that for what seemed like hours then she pulled apart and kissed the top of my head.
"It's going to be okay." She said in a whisper.
