Lily held her mother's hand and cried as well.

Meanwhile ol' Cooter was headed their way with Elly since the two of them were aware of the going ons.

Cooter sighed when they walked in, seeing what was there "What's wrong y'all?" Cooter asked, one of the most confused expressions he ever had on his face.

Enos explains.

Cooter nodded "So sorry y'all. What can I do to help?"

Cooter nodded "So sorry y'all. What can I do to help?"

Enos said "I wish I knew."

Cooter patted his shoulder and then smiled down at Lily "So who was it and what did they do to you?" he asked.

Lily sighed "It was one of the Hogg boys and" she made a face "His twin sister." she sighed "I hurt so much right now I can't even tell you, but please, don't let mama die."

Cooter said "Your mama is to stubborn to die."

Daisy looked up at Cooter "So is this you saying you have faith in me?"

Cooter nodded "Of course" but Elly was a different story and Daisy rushed over to her

"What's wrong Elly?" Daisy asked.

Elly frowned "I couldn't stand to see these kids loose their mama. I love Pa like the world, but I never had mine. She died not long after I was born." she shook in Cooter's arms, her head on his shoulder.

Daisy said "Elly it'll be okay."

Elly nodded, but her crying wasn't letting up, in fact getting worse "I can't let you die Daisy. . .I can't."

Cooter patted her shoulder trying to calm her unsuccessfully.

Elly nodded, but her crying wasn't letting up, in fact getting worse "I can't let you die Daisy. . .I can't."

Cooter patted her shoulder trying to calm her unsuccessfully.

Daisy sighed and just stared at her hands.

"Enos what on earth did I ever. . . " she couldn't even finish as she was trying to surpress the sorrow she felt for Elly knowing how hard it was to loose loved ones.

Enos said "You never did anything to deserve what happening now...no body did"

Daisy nodded "You're right. I just can't stand seeing Elly like this."

Lily started gasping "I can't stand this!" she said and before anyone could answer she got up from her bed and took two steps before falling to the floor.

Cooter caught her "Easy girl."

Lily sighed putting a hand to her head and another to her leg "Thanks Uncle Cooter. I just can't stand seeing Auntie Elly this upset." she said.

Cooter nodded and set her down on her bed.

Cooter nodded and set her down on her bed.

Lily layed down and sighed.

Daisy sank to her knees attempting to swallow the bile she felt rising in her throat.

Pleas noEnos begged in his head. He couldn't stand seeing someone throwing up.

Daisy held it back.

However, Elly who was still caught up in the moment rushed out to get doc and soon returned with him.

The Doc helped Daisy back in the bed and said "Its okay Daisy."

Daisy shook her head "No, it's not Doc. . .I just can't go through all this. I wasn't treated too horribly as a kid and my own shouldn't have to be treated like this."

Daisy shook her head "No, it's not Doc. . .I just can't go through all this. I wasn't treated too horribly as a kid and my own shouldn't have to be treated like this."

Enos said "How were you treated badly as a kid?"

Daisy looked to Enos "I wasn't. . .I mean a few boys picked on me a bit, but I really wasn't picked on for the most part. That's why it buggs me. My kids shouldn't have to fight for their rights against the Hogg kids."

Enos said "No they shouldn't, If I could have been there I would've."

Daisy got that mischievious glint in her eyes that Enos knew, and loved about her "What would you do?" she asked gushing.
