Kelly’s POV
“Mommy!” Snow ran to me as soon as she saw me. Tears were streaming down her face as she hugged me.
I glanced at Phoebe as I carried Snow in my arms.
“What’s wrong?”
“She saw Luke in the news. I didn’t know that she was watching television. I was…cooking her pancakes when I heard her crying.”
I sighed and hugged my daughter. “Shh! Hush now, sweetie.”
“Mommy, what h-happened to uncle L-Luke?”
I bit my bottom lip and shook my head. “U-Uncle Luke is…gone, sweetheart.”
She cried harder. “Why?”
I caressed her cheeks as I sat on the couch and put her on my lap. “Shhh! Uncle Luke became an angel, sweetie.”
She paused and looked at me. “J-Just like grandma and grandpa?”
I nodded and smiled at her. “Yes, pumpkin.”
“I won’t see him again just like grandma and grandpa?”
I touched her chest where her heart is. “They will stay here. They will guide you until you grow up like a fine lady.”
Her lips trembled. “C-Can they promise?”
