Chapter 7
When Lizzie arrived at the hospital she didn't even have to talk to the Secretary.
Gordo had been in the hospital now for a week or a little over, and the secretary was quite used to Lizzie's daily visits.
So Lizzie hurriedly made her way (with her mother) up the flights of stairs.
After walking what seemed to be thousands and thousands of steps she made it to her best friend's room.
When she entered she talked to Mr. And Mrs. Gordon as usual and then said a few words to Gordo.
But even though Lizzie didn't show it...she was so scared.
More scared than she was when Gordo initially gotten into the accident.
Lizzie was scared because Gordo still hadn't awakened and he had been in the hospital for a little over a week.
If she remembered correctly, Mr. Gordon mentioned that Gordo would be awake in at least one to two days after being in the hospital. But it had already been over a week! And Gordo still was unconscious.
When Lizzie would try to talk to Mr. Gordon about her worries for Gordo. He wouldn't even respond. All that he would do is change the subject.
Which is what made Lizzie worry even more.
So she talked to the one person who would listen to her.
Her mother.
"Mom...?"
"Yes Lizzie?"
"Well...Mom I was wondering about Gordo's condition. Like if you knew anything about it. I don't know...you adult's seem to keep everything to yourselves."
"Um...well Lizzie there is nothing I know that you don't."
When Mrs. McGuire said that she seemed really suspicious.
"Mom, I can tell you're lying to me...what is it? Is there something more wrong with Gordo than I know? Please Mom...please tell me...anything."
"Um well sweetie. Mr. Gordon told me that ... Gordo's condition is worsening... he is supposed to have waken up already but his body is...refusing. Look sweetheart all that I truly know is that he will dev-..."
Lizzie finished her mother's sentence.
"Develop Amnesia."
"Yes...honey."
"Mom...why? Why is this happening to Gordo...he doesn't deserve it."
Tears swelled up in Lizzie's eyes.
"Sweetie I don't know I wish that I had all of the answers in the world for you but I just don't."
Lizzie cried and continued to cry. Her mother took her helpless daughter in her arms and held her.
"LIZZIE. JO, GET IN HERE NOW! GORDO HE-...HIS HEART MONITER. GORDO'S WAKING UP!"
