Sarah awoke with the sun. She got up, her eyes still swollen from crying the night before. She got up to change cloths and noticed the bird feathers laying in her floor. She walked over and picked them up examining them. 'where did you come from?' she thought and laid them on her vanity. A confused look planted on her face.
She cradled lancelot in her arms and made her way downstairs and When she entered the kitchen she noticed a note on the fridge.
Sarah,
Me and Karen came in late last night, around four or five, and we were happy to see you where getting some sleep. we didn't cook any breakfast this morning but I have left you some money to get you some food. me and Karen have left for the hospital and will be there most of the day. Drop by when you can I know you want to see Toby.
Love,
dad.
She sighed and picked up the money that was sitting on the counter before heading to her car. She thought about calling into work and taking the day off but decided against it knowing she would need the distraction.
She pulled out off the driveway and made her way to the little dinner in the middle of town. It was close to her work which she was sure she would be late to but knew her boss would understand.
She pulled into the parking lot and made her way into the cute dinner and took her see near the back.
"well hey there Sarah" Annie the cute waitress girl, whom seemed to always be working greeted her favorite customer. "you want the usual sweetheart?" sarah nodded and gave a small smile at her before she walked away only to return minutes later with fresh orange juice.
"is everything alright?" Annie asked, a concerned expression pledged her face. Sarah took a deep breath before answer "Toby is really sick and in the hospital" Annie covered her mouth and gasped at when she heard. "oh dear I'm so sorry"
She bent down and gave sarah a hug that she was all to happy to receive. "are you going to visit him today?" sarah nodded her head while Annie pulled away from her "well before you go stop by and get him a piece of that strawberry cake he loves on the house" the redhead piped causing sarah to smile.
Annie came around with Sarah's food soon after that. She didn't eat a lot but enough to fill her till lunch. She payed and waved to Annie on her way out.
When sarah got to work she was an hour late and was met by shocked eyes when she walked through the doors. "mrs. Sarah!" Corrie squealed causing other students to look up from what they were doing and wave happily.
Corrie ran up and gave her a hug. "what are you doing here?" her coworker Blake asked as she approached him. "I wanted to come into work to keep my mind busy" she told him as she put her purse in the high cubby so that the children couldn't reach it.
"Page gave you the next couple of days off" he said leaning against the wall. Sarah gave him a slight nod before heading over to Corrie.
After work Sarah headed to the hospital to see toby (and get him the cake of course).
She walked into the bland room and up to her brother.
"hey trouble" she said, kissing his head "hey loser" he replied with a grin.
"well this loser brought you something but I guess since you were mean I can eat it myself" she teased showing him the huge piece of cake. Toby's eyes got wide and his mouth seemed like it was watering at the sight of it.
"oh thanks Sarah!" he pulled off the lid and dug into the sweet substance he loved so much.
"anything for you" she said so low she could barely hear herself.
She sat there for hours talking with toby and their parents. They talked about video games, hiking, and toby announced that he wanted to go to an amusement park when he got better. And his family was all to happy to say yes.
Sarah and her family stayed well after visiting hours were over and returned home very late. She decided that she would get a shower in the morning and changed into a baggy shirt and pajama bottoms.
She walked over and opened the window to get some fresh air. She inhaled deep and felt the cool air feel her lungs. "everything's going to be ok" she told herself closing her eyes "Toby will be fine"
"I do hope he will be" a deep voice spoke behind her. She quickly turned around to face none other than the Goblin king. She stared at him wide eyed. Before letting out a scream.
"Well hello to you to dearest Sarah" he said with a grin.
