Luke began to walk down the hall to the door that leads into the room where Bo was staying, he began to think of what to say to his cousin and the thought that Bo thought he had left had upset very much. He enters the room and sees that Bo is asleep; he notices that Bo's hands were rapped in gauze and were very red. A nurse was there to put the rest of the gauze around his other hand told Luke that his cousin is doing better and he is tired because they had finished his skin grafts on his hands and face. It had tired him out. Luke said, "Well I am here to visit him and is the visiting hours over." The nurse replied, "No, you have one hour left, you should spend some time with him." Luke answered," Thanks," As the nurse left, Luke grab the chair that was next to Bo's bed and sat down he put on the paper rob and gloves so he wouldn't cause Bo to get an infection.

Luke then carefully holds Bo's hand and started to brush his blond hair away from his eyes with his other hand. Suddenly Bo started to feel someone touching his hair and slowly opened his eyes and saw his cousin sitting next to his bed. Bo asked," Why are you here, I thought you left without seeing me." Luke replied," I had been here, but I was outside getting some air and I didn't realize what time it was. I do care and love you very much." Then Luke carefully pull his cousin up to give him a hug and Bo began to cry on Luke's shoulder, crying all his fears that occurred during the fire in the barn. Bo said, " I thought I was going to die. The flames had destroyed the ladder and I had no way of getting out. The hayloft fell to the ground and now my hands, face and neck are burned. Now I look like some freak." Luke replied," Bo, you don't look like a freak, I will help you get well." All of a sudden, Luke heard a slow moment of breathing and Luke realized Bo had cried himself to sleep. He gently put Bo back down to his bed and covered him with his blanket. He slowly left the room thinking that he could have caused the barn to burn and he could never tell his uncle or cousins about it. He felt that if he told his family that he would lose the only family he ever had.

When Jesse arrived back at the farm, Daisy had come home from visiting a friend in capital city the last couple of days. When she saw the barn she asked, "What happen to the barn, Uncle Jesse?" Jesse replied, "There was a fire that burned down the barn and your cousin Bo was in the hayloft and it burned his hands and the right side of his face and neck." Daisy cried, "Oh no, Uncle Jesse how is Bo doing." He answered Daisy's question," He is better, but he has several surgeries and skin grafts to do." Then Luke arrived home as they entered the farmhouse, talked and later went to bed.

Over the next several days, Luke and Daisy went to school and after school was over, they drove home to the farm to begin their chores. Jesse came out and told them to get their chores done if there was time they would go see Bo. Daisy said," I have my job and I can't miss work since it's going to be a busy night." Luke answered," I was planning to go see Bo Uncle Jesse if there are no other chores to be completed." Jesse replied, "Sure Luke you can go, I would like to, but I have other things to do before I could visit him." After Luke finished his chores, he took the pickup truck and drove to Tri- County Hospital. Once he arrived at the hospital, Luke couldn't face Bo and walked to the same hidden area to smoke. He stayed there till visiting hours were over and drove back to the farm. He felt that he could not face his cousin because he thought he had caused the fire. He would do this for the rest of the week knowing he was lying to his uncle about visiting his cousin. He thought he would not know the truth since his uncle was too busy with the farm to visit Bo and not realizing that his uncle will find out the truth soon.
