"Mom, Dad, She's awake said Polly as she opened the door. Maybe with Penny awake the arguing would stop.
"Patrick, will you go tell Doctor Landers that Penny is up?"
"Why me? I want to see Penny first I'm her father or have you forgotten that to."
"No sadly enough I remember that wonderful fact. Besides I'm her mother and all children need there Mothers love."
Polly wished they would stop fighting she knew it couldn't be good for her sister. There was only one thing she could think of. "I'll go but dad can you show me where the doctors office is.". She needed to know what Penny had been talking about.
"No way, Polly Lynn, You are not leaving my site to go with that man. Remember what we talked about? Do you really want to be alone with him?"
"What do you mean? What lies have you been telling our daughter?"
"Our daughter, that's a laugh. She will never be your daughter. You didn't raise her. You tried to kill her."
"What??"
"You know what I mean. The whole reason you were in Jail was because you kidnapped MY daughter and tried to kill her."
"Your still Insane after all these years you know that?? I never ever tried to kill our children, I was trying to take them away from you! You were ruining there lives."
That's when Polly realized what her sister had been talking about. Her mother had lied to her and she had believed it. Polly felt like someone had just dunked her in a tub of ice cold water. As she thought about what she had just heard she remembered her sister. Poor Penny was sitting in her room listening to her parents yelling waiting for a doctor. That's when Polly remembered why she was out there in the first place.
Polly knew where Doctor Landers office was and it only took her a few minutes to find it. Inside the office sat a tall man sitting behind a desk which looked short compared to him.
"Doctor Landers, It's me Polly Pingleton, My sister's awake."
"Oh thank you for telling me Ms.Pingleton. How are you parents doing?"
"Well currently they are supposedly arguing about who is going to come tell you that Penny is up. I kind of had enough of there arguing and came to tell you myself."
"Well I best go see your sister. Is she doing well despiteā¦."
"Yeah but she hasn't seen them yet. So you better go before it gets worse."
"And you what are you going to do?"
"I think I'll go walk around a bit outside. You know get some air."
"Well that's I good idea, I'm sure. Well I must go see your sister." And with that Doctor Landers left the room leaving Polly alone for the first time in hours. Polly looked around the room it was painted a cream color but the room had a sort of lived in feeling. Polly looked at some of the pictures on Doctor Landers desk most of them were pictures of his family. They all looked happy and they reminded Polly of what she didn't have. It' was then Polly decided to go on her walk. As she left the hospital Polly felt like something was beginning.
