chapter 19

 Hannah funeral was a lot like Sam funeral except there was one casket instead of two.  Lily told about how Hannah had thought of Sam like a sister. Everyone cried. Zadia looked confused the whole time.

Emma and Lily went to the old house again. The blood was all cleaned up. Lily sat in Sam's chair again. Emma sat in her own chair. She grabbed the note that Lily had put on the wall. She read it over and over. Lily went to the bookshelf and grabbed a few of Irene's diaries. Irene was 76 when she died in 2004. They hadn't even met her.She kept many diaries. Lily read about her dogs. She read on and on. Lily was almost done reading the 3rd diary when Emma said they should get going soon.

"OK fine let me check these out." Lily said signing the book log and several pages. They drove to Lily's house. Nate was sitting on the baby couch with Zadia on his lap.

"Hey Lily mind playing a few songs for Zadia and me. I would love to hear it and so will Zadia." Nate said yearning in his voice.

"OK fine let me get my cello out." Lily turned to see her cello and stand and music all set up by the piano. "Smooth." Lily said to Nate.

"Let me grab my Violin." Emma ran up the stairs and into Lily's room and grabbed the violin out of the closet. "Back." Emma called down the stairs.

"OK ready. We are going to play Zadia favorite. Tomaso Albinoni's Adagio. She absolutely adores it." Lily looked Nate in the eyes the whole time. She looked at him as if he was her brother. The person she would never abandon.

"Mommy's Cello." Zadia said. Her word were very clear for a baby.

"Did you hear that. Her first words." Everyone dove for there cameras. Zadia in all of the picture looked very proud. Zadia was very productive that day when it came to sleep. She soon fell asleep after saying her first words.

"She said what? Thats great." Victor said into the phone. Victor had gone to the store to buy some more baby food. "Yes yes yes i hope she begins cello lessons when she is older." Victor said excitedly. He put a bunch of different flavors and types of baby food in the cart. He grabbed a few new baby books. He also grabbed a few loafs of bread. He got a bunch of indigents for the week. "Yes tonight we are having some tofu with cucumber soup." He knew lily would like tonight's dinner. "Nate stay for dinner sure. We are going to have plenty of food left. I have to go im at the deli so i can pack you a lunch in the morning OK. Love you bye." Victor pressed a button on his blue tooth for his cell phone. "Yes I would like a pound of Swiss a small container of your Washington apple fruit salad and a pound of your free range chicken thin sliced." He payed for the lunch parts the went to the bakery. He grabbed a 6 blueberry bagels and 6 plain bagels. He grabbed a gallon of milk. He got some diapers. He checked out and drove home.
