"Daisy, what time is it?" Bo asked his cousin. Bo never wore a watch. He always asked someone else what time it was.
"About two minutes later than the last time you asked," Daisy said, smiling at Bo.
"Relax, Bo. Megan's in good hands," Uncle Jesse said, touching Bo's shoulder. Bo couldn't argue with that. It just seemed as if the doctor was taking a very long time just to run a couple of tests on a very small tumor. Before Bo could say that Megan came stumbling out of the room beyond the door, looking tired and slightly sick.
Bo covered the distance between him and his sister and wrapped his arms around her shoulders and looked into her dark blue eyes. "Megan, are you okay?" Bo asked as Megan's blonde head fell into his broad shoulder.
"Bo, I don't feel so good," Megan said softly, grabbing thick handfuls of his yellow shirt.
Bo stroked her head gently and looked at the nurse over her shoulder. "What's wrong with her?" Bo asked.
"It's just the medicine we gave her, Mr. Duke. She'll be feeling bad for the next few days," the nurse said in a consoling tone.
Bo lifted his sister in his arms after paying the receptionist for Megan's treatment. Bo let Luke drive as he held his sister in his arms. She fell into a restless doze, whimpering slightly and wrapping her arms tightly around his neck.
Bo looked at her worriedly. He knew that the treatments would have an affect. He just didn't think it was this kind of affect. He just hoped that when they entered Hazzard that Rosco wouldn't try to pull them over. He had to get Megan back to the house. She shouldn't be out when she was in this condition.
Bo carried a bowl of soup into the room that his sister shared with Daisy. Megan looked at him, grinning sleepily.
"Morning, Little Sister," Bo greeted megan, kissing Megan's forehead gently.
"I'm not that little, Bo Duke," Megan said.
"Uh-uh. To me you'll always be my little sister and it's time to eat," Bo said, setting the bowl on the night table next to her.
Megan sat up wearily and laid back against her pillows. Bo sat down on the bed and picked up the bowl. "Can you eat this by yourself or do I spoon feed you?" Bo asked, holding the bowl out to her.
"Bo, I don't think I can even pick up the spoon," Megan said wearily.
'Okay," Bo said, picking up the spoon and feeding her the homemade chicken soup that Uncle Jesse was famous for.
"It tastes good, Bo," Megan said as soon as she ate the last drop.
"Do you want any more? I can go downstairs and get some for you?" Bo asked putting the bowl on the night table again.
"No. I feel kind of sleepy again," Megan said drowsily.
"Okay. I'll just take this downstairs then," Bo said as she lowered the pillows and closed her eyes.
"Okay. 'Night, Bo," Megan mumbled, drifting off to sleep.
Bo pulled another comforter down from Daisy's closet and covered Megan with it. "Good night, Little Sister. I love you," Bo said, kissing his sister's forehead and whispering in her ear. Bo just sat there watching her sleep. Bo started to pray. He hadn't prayed in a long time, but this time he prayed that God would heal his sister. He couldn't lose her when he had just found her.
Megan fell into a restless doze in Bo's arms. She was so glad to have finally meet her brother Bo. Her only wish, was to get to live long enough to get to know him and his family. Which was now her family. Megan had been terrified ever since she founded out the news about the tumor. Questions ran through her mind. Would she live to see her Wedding Day? Would she ever fall in love? have kids? Be normal? Would she finish School and become a Singer?
Before she got really sick, Megan loved singing in the Choir. And around the house and at Karaoke events. She never knew who she got the singing from, but her family thought she was really good and she would someday become a star. But her dreams were now Shattered now that she was sick. And she didn't know what the Future would hold for right now.
All she wanted right now, was to live and to get to know her Brother. Her dreams of being a singer could wait if she ever got well.Megan used to write songs as well and enter them in contests. But now, she could barely even hold a pen up to write in her Diary because she was in so much pain.
They had arrived at the Duke farm without any problems from Rosco and J.D. Hogg. Bo had carried her up the stairs to the room her and Daisy shared. When Bo laid her down to sleep, she could see the worriedness in his eyes as she woke brief ten minutes. She saw worriedness in his eyes and she could tell he hadn't been sleeping much and she was now worried about him.
"Bo, I'm so glad I've been able to meet you. I just wish I could get to know you more". she said tiredly. Her throat felt so dry, and she felt so tired. Megan wanted to be normal and be outside doing physical activities like other kids. Instead she had to be bed rested.
BO had no idea she wanted to become a singer. She kept most of that to herself. But she didn't know was that one day, he would find her Diary and would out of curiosity would read it and also, would find her singing in the bedroom to keep herself occupied.
