Chapter 2 - Jarod's call
"Hello Jarod, how are you?" The old man answered the phone. He wouldn't give his protégé the chance to tell him why he called "I think we need your help", he stated. "I think something is not right with Miss Parker and she doesn't want to talk to me. Something happened, Jarod."
There was silence on Sydneys end while he listened to the Pretender. "Oh no Jarod, nothing like that." Sydney told him about Miss Parkers second breakdown and that she had had her second ulcer surgery, only this time in the infirmery of the Centre, in addition to the fight she had with Lyle, her twin brother, when she showed up at work after her two weeks recovery.
It had been a real bad fight that had ended in a broken jaw and a hysterical yelling Miss Parker. The broken jaw was not on her side and they had her sedated so that the sweepers that came to help Lyle, could force her away from him.
They brought her home and made sure that she understood that she wasn't welcome at the Centre for at least another two weeks. "Please see if you can do something for her." Sydney asked his former student. "She wouldn't talk to me, maybe she talks to you." And after a while "Thank you, Jarod." Sidney put the phone back to the cradle and exhaled a weary sigh as some of the tension released.
