Chapter Two
Sara and Grissom arrived at the hospital twenty minutes later. They talked to the doctor who had looked at the girl. They didn't know much. Sara's cell phone rang and she answered it. It was Greg. She hung up a few minutes later and walked over to Gil.
"Greg went on the online directory for the adoption agency. She isn't in the system under her foster name. Greg says she's probably on it as her name before she was adopted." Sara explained. Gil nodded. "We know that her first name is Dani (Dan-knee)." Sara commented.
"I guess we'll have to wait until she wakes up." Grissom concluded. They waited around for a while, then got impatient. Gil and Sara decided to drive back to the lab.
A few hours later, they drove back to the hospital. They talked to one of the nurses. Dani's condition hadn't changed. They expected her to wake up in the next few hours though. Sara sat down in one of the chairs in Dani's room. Grissom sat down beside her.
"So you're willing to wait for her to wake up?" Gil asked.
"You know I am." Sara replied and smiled. "I have sat and watched a tire go around in circles for three hours."
"Dani. It's a different name for a girl." Gil commented.
"I remember my Mom telling me she wanted to name me Dani. I like that name."
"I don't."
"I wouldn't be talking, Gilbert." Sara teased.
"If you could change your name to any other name, what would you change it to?" Gil asked.
"I don't know, I think Debbie suits my look." Sara said. It brought back memories of the victim that looked almost exactly like Sara. Grissom remembered how much sleep he lost over it.
"I don't think so." Gil answered after a while. Sara laughed a little. She glanced over at Dani, she was still unconscious.
"What about you? If you could change your name, what would you change it to?" Sara asked.
"I can't change my name, so I'd prefer not to dwell on it." Grissom said.
"Another one of your Grissom responses." Sara said, rolling her eyes.
"Who are you guys?" Dani asked, looking from Grissom to Sara. Dani had finally woken up.
