Donna woke up early in the morning. She was looking for her daughter - Sophie, because she is getting merried soon.
- Oh, here you are! - Donna said when she saw her - we need..
- Mom - Sheridan's daughter stopped her mother - don't do that. I see how tired you are doing it all. I know you're strong, but I don't want anything bad to happen. You're working all the time!
- Soph, you're cute, but I need to help you, because gosh, there's still so much to do!
- But mom, it's my wedding and my problem. Go and at least have a short break. You deserve it.
- I love your empathy, honey, but I won't leave you on your own.
- You faced everything without anyone's help.
- Yeah.. but it's not really something that I like to back to.
- Oh.. yes.. sorry. Anyway, I'm creating the guests list today and.. I wonder if I could invite my dad here.. you know..
- No, Sophie, no..
- Why? Why it's so hard to talk about dad?
- Because.. because I don't even know who is he. I met three man in the same time.
- W..what?
- Don't kill me, please!
- It's.. it's okay mom, it happens I guess.
- I'm glad you're not mad.
- I can imagine how hard was that to tell me and I don't think I should be mad. However, I'm going to make the list - Sophie went to Donna and hug her- see ya later.
- Bye!
Donna spent next two hours on getting the decorations ready for the most exciting day in her daughter's day. She looked at the red, beautiful flowers thinking about that her daughter will nearly fly away from the part of her life in which she grew up from something she loved to something she's going to lose.
"So the time has come.. " she thought.
"Now I need to let those obvious things happen. I need to support her on her new life way".
- Donna!
She heard a voice calling her and got a bit scared.
- Oh, Ella, it's you, what's up?
- We have a problem.
- Don't tell me that the goats went there..
- No, no, the table is broken.
- Shit.. Can you please fix it? I have so much to do now..
- Yeah, sure, that's what I am here for.
- Thank you! I have the best hotel crew ever.
Donna payed her attention for the stuff she has to do. Working all the time made her a bit tired and dizzy, but she didn't care about it.
- Hey, mom - Sophie looked at her - You're still working?
- Yeah, I have to.
- The thing you have to do now is rest.
- I'll take a small rest after the wedding.
- But there's a week left! And you'll die untill that if you'll still work like this. Mom, I'm afraid you're a workaholic.
- No, I'm not sweetie, I have everything under control, don't worry.
- That's the typical sentence..
- Please, just trust me.. - while saying that she felt dizzy as fuck - I'm okay..
- Are you sure? - her daughter asked - you don't look like you are..
- Yes, I am, really..
- You're not lying, right?
- Yes..
- Mom?
- Ugh.. alright, you know me too well.. okay, I am a bit tired, but it's okay..
Suddenly goldenhair girl took everything from her mother.
- That is enough working for one day, go and have a sleep.
- Sophie, I don't want to fuck up.
- You won't, you're amazing and you don't have to work all day and night to prove it.
- I know..
- So why do you do it? Is there anything wrong? I mean, you often work to forget about something, is there anything to forget about?
- No, why? - she said lying, because she knew Sophie looked right through her. She knew her daughter was right and she knew that she works to forget about her fear of losing her baby girl, well, not a baby girl anymore.
- I'm worried.
- You don't have to, honey.
- Okay - she hug her - I love you.
- I love you too.
- Just please, thinks about your health.
After saying that Sophie went to her room.
Her mother was still working, but she noticed someone who was looking familiar.
"Hm.. isn't it.. oh shit.. it is.." she thought.
"Gosh.. I probably should really rest a bit, because I start to have hallucinations.."
She went to her room trying nit to freak out wondering if that was true or she just saw something made by her mind. She jumped into the bed and fell asleep.
A few hours later Sophie woke her up.
- Mom, Mom!
- Oh, yeah? - she said softly barely awake.
- There is a man downstairs, he seems weird.
- What do you mean?
- He is asking about you in a strange way.
- Okay, I'll check everything.
- But be cafefull.
- I will - she said right before she went downstairs.
- Holly shit.. - she said loudly - Sam?!
- Hi, Sheridan.
- What are you doing here? My daughter's afraid of you.
- I'm here because.. because I wanted to visit the island.
- Okay, but who told you that you can stay here??
- No one, I went here to ask you about it.
- Sorry, but I'm closed.
- Oh, alright then.
- Do you have a place to stay?
- No.
- Then.. ugh.. I can't believe I behave like this, but you can stay in the goat house.
- Perfect.
- It's not all exclusive, but that's all I can do.
- It's okay.
Sam went to the goat house.
- Mom - Sophie said - who is that?
- No one, honey - Donna anserwed.
- So as I see you don't want to talk about it..
- Yes, let's say so.
- Alright then, Sky calls me, so see ya later!
- Bye!
"Gosh, this day is so crazy!" Donna said to herself after Sophie left.
- Look, it could be worse - she's heard somebody's voice.
- Harry?! - she turned to him.
- Yep.
- Why are you here? Gosh.. two of them at the same time.. it doesn't usually happen.
- What do you mean?
- Nothing, Bright, nothing..
- Oh, okay, anyway, it's good to see you!
- Yeah.. - she noded.
- Donna, what's wrong with your nose??
- Hm?
- Look at you.
She took a mirror and saw her nose bleeding.
- Oh, shit.. I don't know what just happened.
- It's because you're working too much.
- Maybe.. maybe not.. I don't know that.
- Just wipe it and please, have some rest.
- Okay.
She wiped the blood from her nose.
