AUTHOR BABBLE: Hey people, ah. If anyone happens to know the first name of
Terri's mother could you please let me know.. Because it bugs me every time
I write Mrs Sullivan. So until I find her name I'm going to call her MS
with no disrespect to the illness in anyway. So on with the chapter.
Nathan sat by himself on the Ward's balcony looking at the photos in his sisters' wallet, one of him, one of their grandmother and grandfather, and one of their mother. This was the first time Nathan had ever seen the inside of Gretel's wallet. And he was amazed to see the photo of their mother in there. Gretel had always showed a hatred for her. But now it seemed she was hiding the truth all along. Nathan noticed his grandmother walking towards him and quickly stood like a gentleman until she was seated.
"Are you alright Gran?" He asked cautiously, laying his hand on hers to comfort them both. "Gretel's going to be alright. She's strong. Remember how she beat up the school's football coach because he called her a girl. She'll make it through this. It's a strong feeling inside me."
"I know Nathan. But I wanted to talk to you before you went to see her." Nathan nodded for MS to continue. "I invited someone to come and talk with us. She works here in the hospital and I think it will be good to talk to her about what's happening."
"You mean like a therapist?"
"No, I mean. well take a look for yourself." MS motioned behind Nathan and he turned to see a beautiful brunette walking towards him. But he'd seen her somewhere before. He quickly re-opened Gretel's wallet and flipped through the photo's until he found the one he was looking for. He looked up from the photo to find the woman standing in front of him. She was his mother there was no doubt about it. MS stood and hugged the woman. "I'm glad you decided to do this." She whispered in her ear before turning back to Nathan and with a smile she spoke to the woman. "Terri, this is Nathan."
