When He is Gone...

Next day she called and talked to Ian's daughter, while Ian was sleeping.
It wasn't the same daughter of his, it was the girl she never met before, Chandra lived in Australia, and came in to the US only because Ian got very sick.
She said that he is not doing alright, and every day it is getting worse and worse.

.... In a week or so all visitations were closed, and only family members were allowed into the house.

Chandra's voice has been change in a few days later. She was very tired, because she was the one who took care about her dad mostly of time.
Vikki also was talking to Joules almost every day, who was the manager of a Backstage Cafe, and the friend whom Ian brought from England. Nothing sounds good.
- I can't come to visit Ian anymore... and I am running the Backstage...Joules sounded upset.
- I know, Viki said - I was talking to his daughter...
Viki couldn't do nothing about this situation, and just kept in touch on the phone every single day with a few people who was there for Ian.

She was crying after every conversation with Chandra, and the girl in L.A.,the girl she never met before became the dearest, and one from the closest people in the world, she was her connection to Ian and she was taking care about the man she loved.
...............

The world stops, when Viki's child found,while doing research on Google
- Mom!!! - Ian died !!!
- What ? Viki didn't believe her ears and started to read the news.
Cold sweat went trough her body.

In a second she grabbed the phone and started to call Joules, he answered.
- Joules.... how is Ian?
It was a short pause
- He is dead...
- What ?
He repeated
- He is dead..
- When?
- Just a few hours ago.
The world was breaking apart, though the brain still didn't catch the fact.

The conversation wasn't too long, because no one has no words...
