Charles squeezed my hand.

“Focus on that baby,” he said. “That strong baby of yours. Look at who you are, Hazel. Did you really expect anything else? Your grandmother loved putting up a stubborn fight. And now her great-granddaughter is too.”

I smiled at Charles. “She’s going to be okay.”

“She already is okay. She just needs a little time to rest before she takes over the world.”

“She already has taken over the world. Juniper Evelyn.”

“That name makes me so happy to hear.”

“Thank you for everything, Charles. You are…”

“I’m the lucky one here, Hazel. I found the love of my life. I loved her until the end. I still love her. And now I get to be in your life and your daughter’s life. If you’ll have me. Believe me, I’m the lucky one.”

I wanted to see my daughter.

Charles helped me out of the bed and I walked out of the hospital room.

Hannah came rushing toward me.

Charles excused himself.

Panic was written all over Hannah’s face.

“What is it?” I asked, fearing the worst.

“Remember the whole sandwich thing?”

“You showed your boobs…”

“I also gave him my number.”

“Hannah.”

“He’s cute. But he… did something…”

She showed me her phone.

I gasped.

It was a picture of a penis. Next to a sandwich.

“Um,” I said. “I guess that’s the pickle?”

Hannah started to laugh, grabbing my arms.

She laughed so hard, it made me laugh.

“He… he sent the picture… and then asked if I wanted another sandwich. If I wanted seconds. If I wanted… a… dick sandwich…”

Hannah laughed even harder.

Only Hannah could show up to a hospital, end up in the cafeteria, then end up showing off her boobs and getting a dick pic like that.

I thought about what Charles said.

Love is bullshit.
