Sherlock 

The nurses run down the hall and I don't know what to do. They go back and forth, and finally enter the room.

I want to enter.

I'm going in.

I'd pay whatever it was to get in there and be with her. This is unrealistic. How could it end like this?

I rush into the room. The nurses try to get me out of there, but they won't let me. There she is. Molly Hooper, how could you end up like this? Have I led you to this?

I walk over to her and grab her hand. She is with her eyes closed, but she is breathing. Although breathing hard.

The nurses continue to inject her with serums and medications, but they give up.

"We will leave you alone." Says a nurse, while the others leave the room.

"You can not do anything?" I ask anxiously.

"I'm afraid not, her body does not respond to medications and has suffered a lot of brain damage"I know what this means. I know what is going to happen. And I can't let this happen, I don't want to.

The nurse leaves the room and leaves me alone with Molly. I approach her.

"Answer please." I shake her hand, which is full of IVs. "I'm so sorry, Molly ..." My eyes fill with tears. "I love you. I always will." I say sincerely. This is reminding me of the call we had, before she 'died'. "I will give my regards to John and Rosie ... To Mrs. Hudson ... To Lestrade ... But please don't go."I drain my tears.

"Sherl ..." she doesn't finish the sentence. She continues with her eyes closed. "I will give memories of everyone to Mary." I can't believe this is really happening.

"Do not do it..."

"Goodbye, Sherlock." Molly closes her eyes slowly and lets go of her hand. The heartbeat monitor starts beeping.

The nurses come again.

I'm in shock, I don't believe it.
