Michelle// -Paces back and forth- It's been days! She still hasn't answered my phone calls, messages, or emails. I'll call her Mom again.
Sandy Bay (Mrs. Bay)// Hello?
Michelle// You answered!
Mrs. Bay// Who is this?
Michelle// This is Michelle
Mrs. Bay// Oh, Hello Michelle. How are you doing? *Sad tone of voice*
Michelle// I was wondering, Mrs. Bay... Where has Ruby been? She hasn't answered my messages and calls.
Mrs. Bay// I really don't want to talk about it Michelle.
Michelle// Please tell me, I really want to know.
Mrs. Bay// Ruby is in the hospital.
Michelle// What!? What happened?
Mrs. Bay// To tell you the truth.. I'm not really sure. It has all been a blur. But I remember that Ruby and I went grocery shopping and she insisted on carrying half the bags. And to take a shortcut home, we had to cross this street with really thick snow.
Michelle// And....
Mrs. Bay// And we only crossed it because cars barely ever go to this road. But when I crossed over, Ruby still was a bit stuck in the snow, with the weight of the bags. And a car came... and the next thing I knew I was beside her in the hospital.
Michelle// I-is she going to be okay?
Mrs. Bay// I don't know honey... I really don't know...
Michelle// -Drops Phone-
