Ben: “I guess after the party is over we can all go and pay our last respects” the girls didn’t say anything and continued crying and nodded their heads again.

An hour passed and all the guest were leaving. Little Ben had got a lot of presents and was passed out with Evan in the living room floor. Everyone knew where they had to go but was trying to prolong the inevitable. After much debate with themselves everyone was ready to leave to the hospital with the two kids in tow. Once at the hospital they all went into Paula’s room and they just stayed there standing around and crying. Evan gets up and asked to be next to his sleeping grandmother.

Evan: he places his little hand on Paula’s cheek and turns to his father, “daddy why doesn’t grandma want to wake up”

Clay: a tear slips from his eye “its not that she doesn’t want to wait up Ev, grandma has something inside her that’s keeping her from waking up”

Evan: he nods his head “ok” and continues moving his hands over Paula’s face. He looks over to Spencer and Ashley and then to his grandpa and then his mom and dad and Big Ben and there all crying seeing that he asks “why is everyone crying, she’s just sleeping” which caused them all to cry even more. Chelsea goes by her son and takes him by the hand and tells him to come with her “but I want to stay with grandma and sleep”

Chelsea: “Evan you have to give everyone else a chance to see grandma…ok”

Evan: “ok…but where is she going”

Chelsea: “well you see, she’s going up to heaven”

Evan: “Why is she going there”

Chelsea: “because…I don’t know Evan she just is” she just didn’t know how to tell him that his grandmother was never going to come back and the little boy starts to cry in his mothers arms.

Everyone says there last goodbye’s and Paula’s doctor pulls the plug. Two days later was the funereal. Everyone went on with their lives, the girls went back to school, Arthur went back to work, Clay and Chelsea went back to their lives and Glenn went back to Ohio. But Ben he couldn’t get over it, he never went back to work and he lost everything, the only thing he had was little Ben, but he didn’t think he could take care of him. So he gave him to Spencer and Ashley telling them that Paula would have wanted it. He would come once and a while to come and see his son but every time he came over her looked worst with each visit. Months go by and they don’t hear from him so Ashley decides to go search for him. She couldn’t find anything on him it was as if he was whipped off the face of the earth. A year passed and the girls went to visit Paula’s gravesite. While walking there, they can see someone laying down on the gravesite and the same guy in white standing in front of the person lying down. Ashley points it out and they both start running towards the man. Once hey get close enough to see that was the guy was he was gone and seen the guy lying down on Paula’s grave was Ben. They rushed over to his side and seen that he wasn’t moving. Ashley tried waking him up but he wouldn’t budge. So Spencer called 911 and they came. He was already dead and they was nothing they could have done. Two days later, they had the funeral for him. Little Ben always asked where is dad was and they just couldn’t tell him that he killed himself so they told him that he was in heaven with mommy.
