Chapter 12
"Thanks a lot, Doc."
"No problem. Just take it easy on her for a while."
"Yes, for sure."
Kesia heard the click of the door closing and a heavy sigh.
"We should have seen this," said Dominic.
"You can say that again. We should have paid more attention to her. She was half-right about what she said earlier," said Mia.
Kesia's head throbbed. Where was she? Was she dreaming? Or was that really Dominic and Mia's voice she was hearing? Kesia let out a soft moan.
"Hey, I think she's waking up,' said Vince jumping up out of his chair to the side of Kesia's bed. 'Hey baby girl. How ya feelin'?"
Kesia rubbed her eyes with the back of her hand. "Where am I?" she asked drained.
"Hell," Vince said sarcastically.
Kesia knew what 'hell' was. It was: THE HOSPITAL. Kesia smiled slightly and let out a light laugh.
"Why?" she asked.
Vince looked up at Dominic and then back at Kesia.
"You blacked out," he replied.
"Why?" she asked again.
"Apparently you're suffering from emotional stress," Vince replied.
Kesia's eyes flashes open. "Oh just great! What now? Do I have to see a shrink?" she asked turning to Dominic and Mia.
"No, but you do have to chill for a while and take it easy on yourself,' Dominic replied. 'And if something's bothering you, you come and talk to anyone of us. We're here for you."
Kesia laid her head back down against the very comfortless pillows and let out a sigh of relief.
"How long was I out for and how long do I have to stay in 'hell'?" she asked.
"Well. You were out for about two hours and you don't have to stay here long. Once you're ready we can leave," Dominic retorted.
"Well then what are we waiting for? Let's get out of here," Kesia said jumping out of the bed, throwing the sheets aside.
"Whoa! Are you sure you feel okay to leave?" Dom asked standing in her way.
"Do I look okay to you?" she asked putting her arms out so that Dom could look at her.
"Yes, you look fine, but I just want to make sure," he replied.
"Thought so. Now let's got out of this place before I do need to see a shrink and besides I'm starving," she said heading for the door.
"Now she's talkin'," Vince said following after her.
Mia and Dominic looked at each other and shook their heads and followed after them.
"V, where is everybody else?" Kesia asked as they made their way toward the elevator.
"Dom told them to stay home."
Kesia gave him a look. Vince only shrug his shoulders.
"So where do you wanna go for lunch? It's on me," he asked pressing the button for the elevator.
"Thanks V. I don't care, just as long as I eat," she replied.
"No problem, baby girl or can I still call you that?" he asked thinking back to this morning.
"V, you've called me that for seventeen years. Why would you stop calling me that now? I'll always be the baby girl, just as long as.... nothing happens," she replied cocking her head down the hall towards Dominic.
Vince quickly looked at Dominic and then backed at Kesia. They both laughed under their breaths.
What Kesia meant was that she would always be the baby girl just as long as nothing happened between Dominic and Letti.
"What are you two laughing about?" Dominic asked, coming up behind them.
"Oh nothing," Kesia replied smiling up at Vince.
Vince shook his head.
"V's gonna take me out for lunch, so you guys can go on back to the house, unless you're hungry too."
"Nah, you two go on, besides the guys'll probably wanna know what's up," Dominic replied.
"Okay then," Kesia said stepping into the elevator.
Nobody said anything on the elevator ride down. When they had gotten outside of the hospital, Kesia jumped in Vince's car and they drove up in search of something to eat.
