Lincoln was on his way to see Jane, who was at a secret location. Deep down, Lincoln didn't want to leave his son again, but he felt that he had to. LJ looked at his father and didn't know what to think.
" We're going back to the states," Jane told Lincoln, " I'll look after LJ. When do you expect to return?"
" Hard to say," Lincoln answered," I don't know. Right now, Michael is ill. I have someone looking after him. After Michael comes to, he's going to want to go after Susan."
" Sounds like more trouble," Susan said," Maybe we should stay? The house we have is in Houston. The details are written on here."
Lincoln shook his head and took the sheet of paper Jane handed him.
" I want LJ out of here," Lincoln said," Far away as possible."
Lincoln then went up to LJ.
" I'll be with you soon LJ. Until then, stay with Jane."
" I will. I only wanted to be with you dad. You were free and clear. I didn't expect anything bad to happen."
Lincoln hugged his son.
" I have to go," Lincoln said," I love you son."
" I love you too dad."
Lincoln then went back up to Jane.
" I'll be in Houston as soon as I can. After Michael is well, maybe I can convince him that nothing can be done about Susan."
" Don't worry about LJ," Jane said," He'll be safe with me. I don't think Susan will be a problem anymore."
Lincoln then ended up leaving the house and went back to the cabin where he found Callie asleep on the sofa. Tears were filling his eyes because he had to leave LJ, again. Lincoln looked in the bedroom to find Michael still sleeping. Callie then woke up.
" You're back," Callie said.
" A few moments ago."
" Are you okay?"
Lincoln nodded his head.
" Any change?"
Callie shook her head and Lincoln sat down in a chair and put his head in his hands.
" I wish I could change things," Lincoln told her," I did what I had to. Now I'm worried about Michael. What happened to Sara had torn him apart. He saved my life Callie, now I have to save his."
Callie got up and went to check on Michael. She looked at him and nearly wanted to cry.
" Sara loved you so much," Callie whispered," Even though you didn't know each other that long, she loved you Michael."
" Sara," Michael said softly," I'm so sorry about what happened. I never meant to lie to you."
Michael moved slightly, but didn't wake up. Callie wondered if the fever was going down, but when she felt his forehead, it was still the same. Lincoln came up behind her.
" Do you think he's in any pain?"
Callie shook her head.
" I don't know for sure. I took some nursing classes, but what I learned, I learned from Sara. I wish she was here."
" Believe me, so do I. Michael would feel the same way."
Callie went out of the room and sat on the sofa and Lincoln sat next to her.
" You're doing what you can," Lincoln told her," I appreciate it."
" You're welcome. I'll keep my eye on him, I won't give up on Michael."
