Chapter 5: Talking with Mom

Meanwhile while Calleigh is getting ready for bed

"I'm glad to hear that things are going well at work." Eric's mom says while clearing off the coffee table in the living room. "Yeah. You know after the shooting, I knew things would never be the same at work. Calleigh has really helped me out a lot. Everyone at work has been really great. But the shooting really scared her. I've never seen her as scared as she was when she was with me in the hospital." He paused for a moment. "After the shooting it really made me stop and think, you know, appreciate the simple things in life, appreciate the special people in my life." Eric's mom looked at him out of the corner of her eye. "People like Calleigh?" She asked with a smile. Eric looked down smiling as his mom walks into the kitchen. "Yeah."
