Miracles

Chapter 1

So once again I report to you the events of Charlie Brown's life. This time with a few new characters, a lot of change in the point of view and a few time warps. If you were with me from the first journey; Falling in London, I think you'll understand better. This is just my little warning to you, Miracles isn't going to be so much like Falling in London. A lot of things that may be a bit heartbreaking are going to take place. I warned you. If you're new here I hope you enjoy this story and accept all events as they are. So without further ado, I'd like to remind you that this is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, places, events, locales, and incidents are either the products of the author's imagination or used in a fictitious manner. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental.
Happy reading!

~From an Unknown Point of View~

"What do you mean?" The guy who got me pregnant asks the doctor with tears visible in his eyes.
"It's either her or the babies." The doctor says calmly.
"Babies?" He asks.
"Yes, she's having triplets." The doctor says.
"Isn't there a way to save her and the triplets?" He asks.
"I'm sorry but there's no way. It will take a miracle to save the babies let alone the mother." He explains.
"No-no-no. There has to be a way. I'll pay whatever amount you need to save all four of them. Please." He cries, going on his knees.
"I'm so sorry sir." The doctor says. "It's not possible."
"No!" He exclaims. "There is always a way."

"Babe?" I call rubbing his shoulder. He looks up at me.

"It's okay. I want the babies to have a life. I want them to live. In just a few weeks they'll be here. They will survive without me because they'll have you. You're a good person and I know you'll be a great father. Please accept fate as it is. I want you to take care of the triplets. I want you to give them all the attention they need. Be there for them whenever. Put them first before work and love them." I say to him.
He just stares at me and nods.

Seven years later

~Eloise's POV~

"Eloise, come back here," Elliot shouts.
"Daddy said we should wait here." Eli also shouts.
"I'll be back soon. Cover for me." I shout whilst running to the coffee shop.

I find a place to sit and scan the coffee shop for the lady. I see her sitting in a booth at the corner of the shop sipping coffee but the look on her face tells me she's not enjoying it. Why will she drink something she's not comfortable with? I guess that's what celebrities do.

She has a shiny thing on her nose and she's wearing some shades. I think she's hiding from someone.

She sees me staring and waves. My eyes widen and my heart starts beating rapidly. She gets up from her booth and walks to where I'm sitting.
She's coming here. What do I do? What do I say?
Daddy says not to talk to strangers but I watch her on tv and GG says she's going to be my mother soon. I'm sure there's nothing wrong with talking to someone as famous and pretty as her. Daddy doesn't have to know about this.

"Hey boo." She waves. I just stare at her, my cheeks turning pink.
"Can I sit?" She asks. I nod vigorously. She chuckles and sits in front of me.
"I'm Charlie." She extends her hand. I stare at it for a while and shake it.
"A-are you hiding from someone?" I ask shyly.
She gestures for me to come forward and I do so without hesitation.
"Not really. It's part of my job. I came here to taste and judge. Don't tell anyone." She whispers to me and moves back.
I smile at her.
"I won't tell anyone. You're Ch-." I start but she covers my mouth.
"Shh!" She shushes me. "Sorry," I say embarrassed. She only smiles.
"It's okay." She says. "So you know who I am?"
"Yes, I watch you on tv with my grandma," I inform her.
"Really? I never thought I'd have kids watching me cook especially cute ones like you." She bops my nose. I give her a toothy grin.
