Otto's POV =)
**
I sat in the corner of the jail cell and just starred straight ahead. This is how I been for the last three days. There were two other men that I shared a cell with. In my opinion they were pretty scary...they looked like they were in there twenties...and they seemed pretty tough. From what I heard the bigger guy named "Luke" was in for arm robbery of a local gas station, and the other guy named "Ken" was in for raping several women. The guys didn't give me much of a hard time...I think they actually felt bad for me. Even so, I didn't plan to make friends with them anytime soon. I would just sit in that corner and say nothing...not even move. I was so happy that today was my trial date...hopefully I would be free! My dad had got the most expensive and best lawyer in Ocean Shores...I just hope he was his money worth. I got up and looked out through the cell and noticed one of the cops coming my way. They were probably coming to get me! I suddenly felt a burst of happiness. The cop walked up to me and said, "I have some bad news". "Oh no" I thought. Was he going to tell me that my sister had just passed away this morning? Or that I did something so horrible that I wasn't even going to get a trial? .... But didn't American have that law where everyone has the right to a trial? I started to panic. The officer finally spoke. "Son, we are going to have to postpone your trial date until next Friday...which will be in five days". "I'm sorry". The cop then walked away. I just stood there and let out a big sigh. I then returned to my spot and resumed my position.

Third person now =) ** Ray walked into the hospital with a big smile on his face. He had gotten a call early in the morning that Reggie had woken up during the night. She was still very weak but at least she had woken up. Ray also was very nervous because when she was okay he had to tell her everything that happened...and he had no idea how she would take it. Ray had to be the one to tell her that her brother was in jail. ...And that her boyfriend is dead. When Ray reached Reggie's room he took a deep breath and then walked in. "Hey their sweetheart" he said. "Hi dad" said Reggie very weakly. Ray could tell that she was weak by her voice and her very pale face. He walked over to his daughter and sat beside her, and he placed his hand on hers. Ray couldn't hold in the tears any longer...he just started to cry. "Reggie I am so happy that you're okay". "I was worried so much about you...I thought I lost my only daughter...my first born...my little girl". "Thank god your okay, I love you so much". He reached over and hugged Reggie. She returned the hug. "Lighten up dad I'm fine" said Reggie with a little laugh. "She's laughing," thought Ray. He thought that was a good sign. Ray and his daughter had a little father-daughter moment of silence. Finally, Reggie broke the silence. "Dad, Is everyone else okay"? "How's Twister"? "Can I see him"? Ray just looked at his daughter. When his daughter said that it felt like someone had stabbed him ... right through his heart ten times straight. "Sweetie, maybe you should rest, I'll come back later". Reggie looked confused and she could tell that something was wrong. Ray just walked out of the room fast because he was going to start crying anytime soon. Reggie just laid there confused. "I trust my father...and if there was something wrong I'm sure he would tell me" She said out loud with confidence. She then fell back into a deep sleep.

Ray walked out of Reggie's room to the Reggie's doctor, Dr. Phillips.
Ray – "Doctor, I need to ask you something".
Dr. Phillips – "Sure, what is it"?
Ray – "Well...you know that Twister ...Or Maurice Rodriguez has passed away". "Well, that was Reggie's boyfriend and she loved him very much". "She just asked for him and I had no idea what to tell her". 'I just told her that she should rest and I left". "If I tell her the truth will she get more sick"? "Or go in shock"? "I don't know what to do".
Dr. Phillips – "Okay well it's actually worst to lie to her, but I understand where you're coming from". "I gave Reggie a check up this morning and her body is actually doing pretty strong...much stronger then other people after an accident like she went through". "You can probably break the news to her tonight...just be there to comfort her".
Announcer _ "Paging Dr. Phillips to surgery". "Dr. Philips to Surgery".
Dr. Phillips – "Okay I've got to go". "Good Luck".
Ray just nodded and let out a sigh. He felt a vibration and noticed someone was killing him. It was Otto. "Oh shit" he said rather loud. It was Otto's trial date today...in about an hour and a half. He walked out of the hospital and answered it.
Ray – "Hey Son". "Boy do I have some great news".
Otto – "yeah well I don't"! "My damn trial date has been moved to next Friday"! "Dad I can't stand being in this damn jail another day". "I miss skating...I miss ripping it up...I need to GET OUT OF HERE"!
Ray – "Otto come down". "Look sometimes stuff like that happens, I'm going to talk to your lawyer today and find out what this happened...maybe we can move it up a little bit". "I knew that having your trial in only three days was a little to soon...so I had a feeling something like this would happen". "But I have great news...your sister is awake"!
Otto – "What"?!? "Oh my god that's great"! "Is she going to be okay"?
Ray – "yup...the doctor said that her body is doing well...very strong vital signs, especially after what she has been through". "I need to brake the news to her tomorrow about twister though". "Son she is going to be heartbroken".
Otto – "Oh yeah..." "Damn, I wish I could see her". "I wish I could be there to comfort her...she is going to need a lot of people that love her right now". "Wait"! "Isn't telling her that going to make her sick"? "What if she dies from shock or something"?
Ray – "Don't worry I asked the doctor and it's okay".
Otto – "Oh okay". "Dad I got to go".
Ray – "Okay bye son". "Love ya and good luck".
Otto – "Ditto, and thanks".

How do you think Reggie is going to react? How long will Otto be in jail? Will the news of twister's death shock Reggie so much that it makes her sick? Please review!
