Camden Household:
I ran all the way to the Camden's house & banged on their front door. Simon answered the door & hollered for Ruthie. Ruthie was on the phone when she arrived at the door.
"Kaili, hey. What are you doing here? I thought you were out of town with your father," she answered.
I didn't answer her but grabbed the phone & told the person on the other end of the phone that Ruthie would call them back. I pressed the "off" button on the phone & ran into the kitchen. Peter was sitting on a barstool having a snack with the twins.
"Hey Peter," I said, "We need to talk."
"Okay about what?" he asked.
"Your mom & my dad were arrested in a Philadelphia hospital by security & the cops that were called on them. My dad was taken to jail as I ran over here."
Peter & everyone in the room looked at me.
"How do you know my mom & your dad were arrested?"
"I'm going to make a long distant phone call then put it on speaker phone for everyone to hear," I said dialing Lou's phone number again. When I heard a 'hello, Dr. Delgado speaking,' I put the phone on speakerphone.
"Lou, it's me again. Put Mrs. Petrowski on. Peter wants to talk to her. But I also have a few things I want to talk to her about."
"Kaili, there...ah…was…something happened. While you ran over to the other house, your father got a hold of an officer's gun, turned around and fired. Billy was taken to surgery a couple minutes ago. Dr. Campbell is head of the surgery. I'm sorry."
My face had drained of blood. Lou, where did the bullet hit? Please tell me Billy's going to be okay."
