Chapter Twenty One
After the check up Sandra was slightly concerned. She found a large bump on Mandy's head which was most likely from the accident. She wanted to have further tests done to rule out what she thought it might be,
"That's all for the moment Mandy, you can get dressed now"
"So doc how is her?" Chris asked
"I think I should talk to Mandy first and let her tell you for herself"
"It's ok I want Chris to know"
"If your sure. I would like it if I could do some further testing. I just need to rule out something before giving you the all clear"
"It's nothing serious I hope" Chris said
"It's probably nothing … but we won't know until after the testing"
"What type of tests?" Mandy asked
"Cat-scan"
"Oh" Mandy said in shock "how soon?"
"As soon as possible. I'll go and make the arrangements and get back to you"
"Ok"
"Oh and Mandy please don't worry, I'm sure it's nothing and I'm over reacting"
"I'll try not too. Can you please not tell the others. I don't want them to know"
"Of course. Not a word" Sandra said before leaving the room.
When the others returned to the room, Adam looked at Mandy and was concerned and said,
"Are you ok Mandy? You look a little pale"
"I'm fine … never better" she said not wanting anyone to know. she didn't want them to worry as they had already been through so much already.
"We were thinking about getting something to eat, would you like us to bring you anything?" Sue said looking at Mandy
"No thanks I'm fine"
"Why don't you guys head back to the hotel for the night?" Chris suggested
"Oh we couldn't do that. Who'll keep you company?" Sue said
"I'm actually pretty tired … and I'd feel a lot better if you went … not that I don't love having you here, it's just that its probably going to be rather boring for you all"
"You sure about that bro?"
"Yeah I'm sure. Now go" he said with a little laugh
"Ok but we'll be back tomorrow to check up on you"
"Ok night all"
"Night" they said before heading out the door. Adam stayed behind because he wanted to talk to Mandy.
"Are you coming Mandy?"
"No I'm staying here with Chris"
"Oh … ah … do you think we could talk then? … like outside"
"I'm not going anywhere with you" she said coldly
"Please I just want to talk"
"NO! Just leave me alone" Adam looked at Mandy and could sense her anger so he left. He walked dazed and bewildered down the corridor to catch up with the others.
