Eliza Beth still red looked up. She was calmer but still pondering the many questions she so desperatly wanted answers to. She watched as Sia stared to cry and automaticly felt so ashamed of how she was acting. Turning to Sia she gave her a small hug,
"I'm sorry" she whispered. Looking around at Melodie she took a deep breath and stepped forward,
"um...um...sorry?" she said meekly not really knowing what to say to her cousin.
Steeping back again she listened as Sia spoke and sighed
'so no one really knows who I am...' she thought sadly,
'I'm still a nobody' biting her lip she closed her eyes and took a deep breath. She heard Sia start talking about the babies. Opening her eyes again she peered over Sia shoulder at the two angelic babies in the stroller.
Looking up at Melodie and noticed that she was getting whiter and whiter. Her eyes filled with alarm, her heart beat speed up. She hardly knew the girl in front of her but she was family now and she was concerened about her.
Breathing deeply she stepped slowly towards the girl past the pram she stopped in front of her.
"Are..you...ok?" she asked, when she didn't get a response she knew something was wrong. She was looking like her younger sister Emmaline before she fainted
"Melodie?!" she asked her voice rising.
She saw as Melodie stretched her hand out, Eliza Beth willed her self to take her hand but she was frozen, she could do nothing, just looking up at Melodie in alarm. She saw Melodie start to sink to the ground and before she could catch her she fell to the ground.
Gasping she knelt down beside her and very delicately lifted her pale eye lid she looked at her eyes, looking up at Sia she gave a small smile
"She's just fainted...My sister Emmaline does that all the time...Hey can you check if there's a bottle for the babies any where... we can use the milk to wake her up..." she picked up Melodie's limp wrist and held the pulse, as Sia rumaged around for a bottle.
Eliza Beth sighed as Sia produced a bottle. Taking the bottle she unscrewed the lid
"Sorry Melodie" she whispered and poured a little of the milk on her forehead.
Eliza Beth was still at Melodie's side holding her wrist as she came to. Sighing she let go of her wrist and set it gently on the ground. Still concerned she felt Melodie's forehead,
"Does it hurt any where?" she asked. She heard the babies begin to cry and Sia trying to calm them. Dissmissing the thought she still looked intently at her, as more people crowded around her,
"You fainted." she stated
"When did you last eat?" she asked. She hesitently brushed Melodie's damp hair away from her face, not wanting to anger Melodie any more.
Picking up the half empty milk bottle she held it up in front of Melodie
"are...you thirsty...?" she asked
"...un-unfortunatly we only have milk..." she added blusing.
