Grace stood on the school yard as she waited for the fireworks. She held Mia in her arms and smiled as she stood next to Nikki

"she's tired, I think I'll head home either her soon" grace said. Grace frowned as she glanced up the taproot snd saw Kyle stack on the roof.

She felt her blood run cold as she saw Tom and saw them as they stood talking. It all went so quick.

Grace watched as Tom went to help Kyle only to slip and fall. She screamed as he fell to the roof. She could hear Mia crying for Tom as she saw what happens as grace ran over to him.

She looked to him and smiled as she lifted her head onto her lap "it's okay" Tom said

"don't say that, you are going to be okay"

"no Gracie, I'm not I love you, I love our girl. Look after her and tell her I love her. I'm sorry" he said as his eyes closed shut

"Tom..Tom wake up" she said as she felt the tears rolling own her eyes. She felt her heart break

"daddy" Mia yelled as she ran over. Grace looked to her and frowned as she stood up and grabbed her as Mia struggled wanting t get to Tom

"daddy" she sobbed as grace held her closer

"daddy's gone baby" grace said knowing that nothing would he the same again without him
