shock

NANNY P.O.V

so today is my special little grandsons third birthday, Robert knight and Jessica knight left early this morning to go into Dartford to by some toys for Oscar. Even though he is only three now he is quite the smart little boy, really inquisitive and questions everything which is good but also a hand full, With how smart he is given a few years I'd say he will catch up to kids older than himself in the knowledge department.

Around lunchtime the weather started to get bad, I watched as lightning struck the ground quite a few time's in the span of only a few minutes, Thankfully it was away from here, I found it quite surprising that Oscar was not crying, he was just happily playing with his building blocks trying to build the great wall of china, which I found funny as when he ran out of blocks he would grab the cat which was hiding under the sofa in the living room.

trying to mount the cat on top of the wall to fill in a segment of the wall and once he got bored of that he would grab his pencils and start drawing circles and squares on some paper.

quite happy and content that was until it got to around 4.00 pm in the afternoon, however the sky looked like it was midnight with the rain poring down buckets and still no sign of rob or jess, Oscar started to get a bit worried you could tell when he started asking every five minutes when they would be home, Even though I said they will be home soon and had Oscar count his finger's and he did so with determination.

around a whole hour went bye and they are still not back and we have no way of contacting them, As I don't know the land address of the businesses that they are at so I can't use the home phone to call them.

After going in and out of the house to look down the street a dozen time's in the rain the cold water had truly soaked me to my old bones going in to the bathroom and grabbing a towel then proceeding to her bedroom to change into a dry set of cloths.

I got Oscar to eat his dinner first but I must admit, In his last life he must of waged a war with curry and lost somehow, Because he showed no mercy and its a little scary to be honest.

After Oscar absorbed his curry like a black hole and nearly mine as well we did a count down together, As we finish Oscar wattled full tilt to the front door but he was too small to reach the door handle, which I was quite happy with but before he got there someone was knocking at the door, quite loudly as well and rob has a key to the door so he wouldn't knock.

knock knock ….. knock knock.

I started to get that gut retching feeling like something terrible has happened again that same pain that came washing over me just like last time and the time before that.

I reached out and started opening the door but Oscar slip past, launching himself at one of the two male figures hunched over at the door.

As nanny was about to tell Oscar to go back inside the hunch over male figure leaned down and picked up Oscar and half placed his jacket over him to cover him from the wind and rain, standing up straight and showed his badge introducing himself.

hello madam my name is senior Sergeant Michael Stanford and this is my partner constable Joshua Matthews from Dartford police department, If its not to much of a bother may we please enter your home.

As nanny was listening to the senior sergeant her heart was racing a million miles an hour she knew it, something has happened to them, As she quickly invited the two police officers inside out of the wind and rain, hearing her reply the two police officers entered the front door, with senior sergeant Michael Stanford still carrying Oscar, who was worming around in his hold yelling your not my par par where is my par par.

Quickly placing Oscar down after they entered the living room, senior sergeant Michael looked towards me and said madam Vivian knight as I just said my name is senior sergeant Michael Stanford from the Dartford police department, we have come to your residence this evening bringing sad news I am afraid.

Vivian knowing this in her heart sank into the sofa and grabbed on to Oscar placing him in her embrace, Oscar seeing that it was his nanny that picked him up he started smiling and asked nanny who are they and what a police officer was, hearing this I told him in a soft voice that it is the police officers job to protect people.

not understanding the situation Oscar stands up whilst in my embrace and declares that he will protect me, while what Oscar said was sweet and heart felt, (well for a three year old anyway) my heart is shaking I feel like its about to burst, I ask Michael one or two, tell me is it just one or both of them.

knowing what Vivian was on about Michael gave a sad nod and replied I am sorry madam Vivian but it was both of them, The details are not clear as of yet but what I can tell you is that there is a total of 12 people found together including Jessica knight and Robert knight, I do not wish to depress you any more than I have already, but there will be a mass memorial held next week on the 6th of November for those that lost there lives.

When the less graphic details become clear to us then we will inform you about it then but until then.......

Wait!!!!!!!

What the...…...

How tell me how my son and daughter in law died!! it may be depressing but I need to know!.

Saying this tears roll down her cheeks with red eyes and a sombre voice she asked again tell me please, They where the only one's left! My husband died six weeks ago! My daughter died 5 months ago! my eldest son died 4 months ago! with my third and youngest dying six months ago how!!!!!! how!!how!! how can this happen again and again to me.

Tears flowing as Vivian breaks down Michael having read this piece of information before he arrived kneeled down to try and comfort her with little success lifting her head to look at him again, In a softer and more sombre tone ask how?? Michael with little choice gave in and told her that when the police arrived to the call out, what they found was hell, the 12 people had there bodies blown to pieces and that it took dozens of officers going over the crime scene, several hours to match body parts together and to find the identities of those that had redeeming features or id cards of sorts,

The picture that Vivian imagined was even worse then she had thought previously which made her collapse and vomit, Joshua Matthews quickly catching Vivian before she fell off the sofa along with Oscar, laying her down then going to the kitchen and grabbing a damp wash cloth to wipe her face and to make her comfortable.

waking up I am greeted with the two officers and Oscar watching over me, Joshua was checking my pulse and there was another person in the room that I had not seen since my husbands death.

Albus Dumbledore.
