Chapter 2
When Theo woke up again, not dizzy, she was lying in a bed in the hospital. She shot up quickly from her long rest as the nurses called the doctor.
"Oh… wow… I got to get out of here! Were gonna be late!" she started to get up as the doctor came and pushed her back in bed.
"Oh no. You need to stay here awhile" the doctor got her some water from the small table next to the bed.
"Ohhh no! I have to go! We have to go- I got to go get Frank first though!" she started to get out of the bed on the other side.
"Theo! Theo!" he stopped her.
"You've been in an accident. Frank is in the emergency room" he pulled the covers back around her.
"Now just take it easy" she started to settle down.
"Now promise me you'll stay here tonight and I promise you that Frank will be fine" he spoke as she sipped the chilled water.
"Okay" she nodded and fidgeted around in the stiff bed to get comfortable.
"Good" he began to leave.
"Oh, the police found this in your car, it had been totally untouched by the fire" what fire? Theo thought, as he handed her the letter. She took it hesitantly as chills ran up her spine. He smiled once more and closed the curtain that surrounded her small "room". She couldn't open it, she didn't have the strength, figuratively.
