We are at the hospital at exactly twelve thirty. I don't have the patience to talk to the receptionist so I run straight to my mom's room. I'm aware of Jesse right behind me but i don't even turn around to look at him. I'm seeing my mom awake for the first time in two years. I push the door open and walk in. "Jeez, Ava! Why are you out of breath?' Meg asks me, walking from her position on the bed to hug me. " Is she okay?" Shane chooses to answer me. "Not really. She opened her eyes but that's about it. She won't talk, she won't move." "Is that common when a patient is comatose?" He shrugs. "The doctor thinks it's the first step to healing. What is Anderson doing here?" I turn around just as Jesse walks into the room. He nods very briefly at Meg and he totally ignores Shane
