Before the man on the other end could speak, he said, "Miss Stratton, the little girl you sent here has died."
"How could she die from just taking a little blood!"
Melody dropped Levi and rushed out of the hospital at top speed.
She arrived at the illegal clinic.
The small figure on the hospital bed was already lifeless.
She grabbed Harmony and ran outside.
By the time they reached the hospital, she had just sent Harmony into the operating room when she overheard people talking.
"It's that girl again. Her dad just died a few days ago, and now she's dead too. What terrible luck!"
Melody froze, rooted to the spot by the nurse's words.
She couldn't believe it.
The operating light went out, and the doctor came out with a sigh: "My condolences."
As the doctors wheeled Harmony out, Melody completely broke down.
Why did this happen? It was just a little blood draw, how could she die?
