Chapter Four

Three hours later, Becky still hasn't come home. Lucy was walking around the room worried. James kept looking at the door.

"That's it we need to go look for her," Lexy said. Lucy shook her head. "We shouldn't bug her." "Lucy we need to find her," James said. Lucy looked at me. "Mom I'll stay here with Francisco, Lexy and Noah while dad and you go look for her." Lucy nodded. They left.

I looked at my siblings. "Guys Becky will be fine. She'll come home." Lexy shook her head. "She hates me," she said. "Lexy no," Noah said. I looked at my baby brother. "Noah is right. Becky doesn't hate you Lexy. She's just surprised is all. She'll come around," I said hugging my sister. She just nodded.

We sat there waiting until the door opened.

It was Becky! She was safe.

"Becky oh my god, you had us worried to death! Are you okay?"I asked. She nodded. She walked past me. "Lexy I'm sorry," she said. Lexy got up and hugged her. "Its okay sis I understand why you got mad," she said. Becky nodded. "Now we wait for James and Lucy right Bridget?" Francisco asked. I nodded.

They came home an hour later. "Becky Emma Carman! Do you realize how worried we were!" James yelled. She nodded. "I am so sorry. I just needed time to think," she said. "Becky we understand that but you should not have ran away like that," Lucy said. She nodded again.

Lexy stepped in. "Mom, dad let her make up to me by going with me to look at baby stuff." Lucy nodded. "Okay and if you do go Becky you won't get punished," James said. She nodded.

It was at that moment when the phone rang. Lucy answered it. "Hello. Yes this is her. Oh my god. Are you sure she's gone? Okay doctor. Thank you." Lucy hung up the phone. She had tears in her eyes. "Lexy what's wrong?" James asked going to her. She took a deep breath. "It was the hospital. James it was about Emma." Francisco looked up. "What's wrong with my mom?" Lucy just looked at him.

It took him a moment to realize what had happened. "No my mom isn't dead! You're lying!" he shouted crying. Lucy shook her head. "Francisco I'm sorry but it's true she is gone. She didn't survive the surgery." Before she could continue the phone rang again.

This time James answered. "Hello. This is her husband. How can I help you? Oh my god she was pregnant? No we didn't know. I will tell him right away. Thank you for informing us." He hung up the phone.

"James what happened?" Lucy asked. "The hospital called again saying Emma was pregnant with a baby girl and that they delivered her and she is completely healthy." Francisco's jaw dropped. "I have a baby sister?" James nodded. Francisco ran out of the room. Noah followed him.

First Emma tells him she has cancer then she dies and then we find out she is pregnant. What's next? That's when the screaming started. We ran into the kitchen.

In the kitchen Noah was standing there looking at something. In front of our eyes, layed Francisco and in a puddle of blood. I ran for the phone to call 911.

All that we could was wait until the ambulance arrive to take Francisco to the hospital. After what felt like forever they arrived. They did their paramedic routine and we were off to the hospital.

When we got to the hospital they rushed him into emergency surgery. All we could do is wait and hope Francisco is okay.
