Come to me now and lay your hands over me -Sheryl Crow, I Shall Believe

Time Period: A Flashback

Joey's p.o.v

Emotional, I fall apart in her arms. "Somebody at school said you were in the hospital. I dropped

everything for you" I recall. Gently, she rubs my back. "Honey, I am alright. The baby remains in

good health. It was just a minor medical scare" she assures me. She doesn't go further into much

detail. I believe her even though I know she is lying. I hug her and kiss her forehead anyway.

Please come and lay your hands over me. I really do need hope. I want to feel and hear you

out clearly.
