Jeffrey walked into the hospital still covered in Sandy's blood. He hadn't bothered to go home and change or shower because the only thing on his mind right now was Sandy. He had to see him. He had to see him now. He walked into the waiting room, just realizing that he'd never been told what room Sandy was in or anything. He looked around for a few seconds before recognizing the doctor. "Ed…"

Ed turned to look at Jeffery. What was he doing back here? "Jeffrey, what are you doing back here?"

"I need to see him, please, tell me what room he is in…"

"Like I said earlier you're not family…"

"Please…"

There was that look again. Just what exactly did that look mean? "He's in ICU room 239…"

Jeffrey looked confused for a moment.

"Go straight and make a left…"

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE! GET AWAY FROM MY SON YOU SICK FREAK!" Reva jumped up out of the chair to growl at Jeffrey.

"Is he OK?" Jeffrey walked into the room, completely disregarding her instructions.

"WHAT THE HELL KIND OF QUESTION IS THAT? NO HE IS NOT OK BECAUSE YOU RAPED HIM! AND YOU BEAT HIM! AND YOU…"

"I never hurt Sandy!"

"GET OUT! GET OUT! JUST GET OUT!"

"I need to see him…"

"You should be in jail!" She lunged toward him and made a grab for his throat, but he managed to grab her arm and push her away.

"Reva, I don't think that you understand the situation."

"What is there to understand? My son got close to you. He trusted you. And when he didn't want what you wanted you forced it on him and almost killed him!"

"No, Reva. No."

"What are you doing here, Jeffrey? If the police let you go, then why don't you leave the country? Just go, Jeffrey just leave! Just stay away from my son!"

"I love your son."

"NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! He never should've trusted you!"

"But he does trust me, Reva. Which is a helluva lot more than I can say for you…"

"How dare you, Jeffrey O'Neil! How dare you do this to my son and then come in here and accuse me…"

"Oh come on, Reva. All you've done since he came to town is lie to him!"

No! How could he possibly know… "DAMN YOU JEFFREY O'NEIL! GET OUT OF MY SON'S ROOM RIGHT NOW OR I WILL CALL THE POLICE AND LET THEM KNOW THAT YOU ARE HARASSING HIM!!!"

The sound of the monitors shocked them both into a temporary silence.

Ed and two other physician's rushed over to Sandy's bedside. "Get out! Right now! Both of you!" Ed shouted. The doctors shut the door and Jeffrey and Reva were left in the hallway together. They glared at each other, but they were both too shocked, or too scared, to say anything.
