CHAPTER 20
On Friday, when she got home from work she thought about going over to see Frank, but her gut instinct told her not to. Frank did not like to be laid up and the sooner he could walk without crutches the better he would be. He could not climb the stairs so he was forced to sleep on the couch.
It was Saturday and Tylo had another function to attend. Gary was lining them up one after another; she was spending more time with him than his wife it seemed.
"Veronica!" Frank yelled.
Veronica came rushing down the stairs saying, "What's up Dad?"
Frank was lying on the floor and holding his leg in pain. "You need to get my cell phone so I can call Jake."
"Hold on Dad, I'll get help." She said as she ran out the door.
Tylo was getting ready to go out, when she heard the banging on the door. She opened the door and saw Veronica crying.
"What's wrong sweetie?"
"Dad fell and he's hurt."
Tylo bolted out the door with Veronica right behind her. She ran into the house yelling, "Frank!"
Frank thought 'shit' she went to get Tylo instead of the freaking phone. "I'm here by the couch."
Tylo knelt down by him and said, "What do you want me to do?"
Frank said, "Try to help me up on the couch. On three we need to put my weight on you to lift with my good leg. Can you support me?"
"I'm sure I can, if not we'll both be on the floor."
"Ready, one, two, three!" He was surprised when Tylo easily supported his weight to get him on the couch.
"Thanks"
"I failed to mention, I used to workout with free weights."
"Tylo you're the best!" Veronica came and hugged her.
"Well now that you're all set, I'll leave. Is there anything I can do before I go?"
Veronica said, "Do you have to go? What if Dad falls again?"
"Yes, sweetie I do, I have a plans for tonight so I have to get ready."
"Quite the social butterflies aren't we?" Frank said sarcastically.
"It's business." Tylo defended herself.
"That's the classic excuse." Frank said.
Tylo didn't even know why he was baiting her, but she had enough. "Everything looks under control, so I will say good bye."
"Sorry Veronica bothered you, I asked her to get my cell phone." Frank said smugly.
"Trust me, Veronica isn't a bother, it's you." Tylo retorted and walked out the door.
