Chapter 17: 30-Second Phone Call
Daisy closed the door behind her, leaving Shelby fast asleep. Everyone else was down in the cafeteria, getting their own fill of the hospital food. Taking advantage of there being nobody around, she walked to the pay phone, and after inserting a dollar into the over-priced machine, she got a hold of the operator, and asked for the number of Scott's mother.
"Mrs. Barringer? This is Daisy Lipenowski, I am a friend of Scott's."
"Oh, yes, Daisy. I remember you. What is it that you want?" She sounded in a hurry, and so Daisy got straight to the point.
"Scott said that you were the reason he broke up with Shelby. I just wanted to let you know, that it broke her heart, and landed her in the hospital. Thank you very much for hurting my friend, though I know it was indirectly."
Daisy quickly hung up the phone, leaving Scott's mother on the other line, utterly stunned at the words that had just been thrown at her. "What was that all about?" she asked herself. "Nothing that happened to 'her' could be my fault...Right?"
The others returned to the waiting area outside Daisy's room just as she herself was heading for her door to enter. She did not want them to know what she had just said to Scott's mother, especially Scott. Who knew how they would have reacted or what they would have said. However in this case, they just allowed her to go back to her room, to contemplate on her thoughts.
