Korey

Everything hurts. Everything fucking hurts. I groan as I shift on the bed.

"Korey."

I slowly open my eyes and I come face to face with my husband. He looked horrible just like I felt. The next thought in my mind was my Rose, where was my baby Rose?

"My baby," I said but my voice was barely audible.

"Are you okay? Do we need to call the doctor?"

The memories of her pale face flash in my mind and my heart clenches.

"My Rose, I need to see my baby," I cry.

Hades puts his hands on the side of my head, "I know baby but not right now okay."

"Please, let me see my baby." I cry, "I need to see her."

I look at Hades and he's crying too.

"Baby, she's being operated on right now, you can't see her."

A wave of grief washes over me and I sob, I knew and felt that she wasn't going to make it. She wasn't.

"My baby. Hades, we can't lose our baby."
