"She was sent home from school sick yesterday. But no, my sister did not tell me before yesterday that she did not feel good, the only thing she says to me was her asthma was acting up, but not to worry about it."
" Ok, that what she told me to, you can go up and see your sister she is in room 203."
"Thanks."
Destiny walks over to the stair and heads up to the second floor. She walks down the hallway and then walks into her sisters' hospital room. Back at the lab they are at a stand still the only DNA that Greg could get a match on was the victim and the sixth blood sample he gets is unknown.
