Chapet 4
“She what?” I giggled aswas telling me a story about what Amy had done when she was
two years old
“She took the pet budgie out of the cage and plucked him bold” said trying not to
laugh
“Was the budgie ok?” I asked
“Well he couldn’t fly for a while but he seemed fine looked so funny in his cage”
said not being able to control the laughter wanting to break out any longer
“Well I’m so gladhasn’t done anything like that but we don’t have any
animals I’ll get her a pet if she asks for one though” I said and smiled
“You’re a very sweet natured mother you know!”said I smiled
“Thanks but thenis all I’ve got well apart from my friends but I have
no family left” I said and looked down a bit
“Really why what happened?”asked
“Well my parents and younger brother died in a car crash two years ago and
both my parents we’re only children and their parents have passed on two” I said
and sniffed a bitput his hand on mine and gave it a little squeeze
“I’d love to be involved with you and”said which shocked but also
pleased me a little
“You’re a very kind gentleman” I said and smiled at him
“But…”asked
“Nothing I’d love it if I could see you more often” I said
“Too our new found friendship”said toasting his glass we clinked our glasses
together and drank from them…
“Good night”said as we got to my doorstep
“Night” I said and kissed his cheek
“I had a lovely time with you” he said
“And me with you” I replied and went inside
“Sweet dreams”said as I shut the door I saw the answer machine light flashing
I clicked it and listened to the message
*itsI’m at the hospitalhad fallen ill and I didn’t know
what to do come to the hospital as soon as you can bye*
I froze before opening the door I ran out slamming it behind me and running up to
’s car as he hadn’t pulled out yet
“” I yelled he got out of the car and ran over to me
“Babe what’s the matter why you crying?” he asked putting his arms around me
“We need to go to the hospital quickly I just got a call from and she said
had been taken ill” I said quickly
“Ok babe calm down and get in the car”said I did as I was told and got in the
cardrove us to the hospital and I ran into the A&E department
“where is she?” I asked
“There doing tests on her at the moment I’m so sorryI didn’t know what to
do she just started to get a headache and had a high fever then I noticed a rash on
her skin I didn’t know what else to do so I brought her here” cried
“Don’t worry about it it’s not your faultit could’ve happened even if she
was at home with me” I said reassuringly I didn’t want her blaming herself
“Miss?” a doctor asked coming over to us
“Yes I’m her isok?” I asked looking frantically into the doctor’s eyes to
see if I could find an answer within them but nothing remained
“Can we step into my office” he asked
“Sure,can you come with me please” I asked looking at him I could tell this was
going to be some bad news we stepped into the doctor’s office and sat down on the
other side of the desk to himgripped my hand and I gripped his back
“We have run some tests onand have found out that she has…”
