I had gotten a short nap when I woke up, but I felt more awake now. So I stood up

and walked downstairs to get something to drink. Mom was there, but Blaise was nowhere to be seen. Maybe he was in his room or had gone for a walk.

"Hey, sweetheart. The doctor's assistant is up in Juliette's room. Just keeping track of how she was doing after the travel and all that." Mom said, and I smiled.

"That is nice of her. I will go up there and see what she says." I say and smile.

"Okay. Just dong disturb her work." Mom says.

"I won't, I promise," I say and walk upstairs.
