Chapter 16.

"We are leaving you two alone here," Link said. " Promise me, there will be no parties or long telephone chats."

Link and Tracy were leaving for their honeymoon.

"We promise," Amelia said. "Besides, parties almost always a bore."

"You can have Dylan and Inez come over ," Tracy said. "But that's it. The emergency numbers are on the fridge."

"Okay. Now go on your honeymoon," Andrew said. "We'll be fine."

"We're trusting you," Link said.

"We know," Amelia said. "Now go."

Link and Tracy left for the train station.

"Right this way, Mrs. Larkin," Link said. Link opened the door of the hotel room.

"This is the life," Tracy said. She went over and gave Link a kiss.

"It sure is," Link said."It sure is."

Amelia and Andrew were at Tracy and Link's house when the phone rang.

"Hello," Amelia said after she picked up the phone.

"Amelia," the person on the other end said. "This is Edna."

"Oh, hi, Mrs. Turnbald," Amelia said. "How are you?"

"Not that good," Edna said. "There's been an accident."

"What happened?" Amelia asked.

"Jonathan was playing outside this morning when he was hit by a car," Edna said.

"Is he going to be alright," Amelia asked.

"We don't know," Edna said. "Could you call the hotel that Link and Tracy are staying at?"

"Sure will," Amelia said. She hung up the phone.

"What did Mrs. Turnblad want?" Andrew asked.

"Jonathan has been a accident. He got hit by a car this morning. They don't know if he's going to be okay."

"Do you want me to call the hotel?" Andrew asked his sister.

"Please. I don't think I'll be able to," Amelia said. She left the room.

He called the hotel that Link and Tracy were staying at.

"Hello?" Link said when he picked up the phone.

"Link, it's me," Andrew said.

"Andrew, Tracy and I are on our honeymoon," Link said. "Is this an emergency?"

"Yes," Andrew said. " There was an accident. Jonathan was hit by a car this morning."

"What?" Link said.

"Mrs. Turnblad called and asked if we could call you and Tracy," Andrew said.

"I tell Tracy," Link said. "Thanks Andrew."

Link hung up the phone.

Tracy came out of the bathroom. She was ready to go out. She saw Link's face.

"Who was on the phone?" she asked.

"That was Andrew," Link said. "There's been an accident."
