Sook chuckled despite the tears still rolling down her bright red cheeks; trust Izzy to bring her back to earth, even for a moment. She traded holding her best friend's hand for hugging her tightly, determined that if she had no control over her or anyone else's fate, that she would instead enjoy every moment of life. "I know, I have to be strong for Delly. She needs me more than ever, if she doesn't hate me at the end of all this. I just wanted... I just wanted it all to be so perfect. But I know now, it's completely out of my control, I can't guarantee anything except that I love you all so much."
Sook cupped Izzy's head and kissed her cheek like her Gran used to do for her. "You might have triplets in there, you know. Babies make us crazy."
