Chapter 147 Pain In The Heart

Zandra peered out the window, noticing the break of day. She stood up and said, "You're going to spend a few days here in the hospital. The doctor says you might have a concussion. Just rest up and forget about<< work for now:"

Theo gave a grateful nod. "Thanks, Mom."

Zandra gave his shoulder a reassuring squeeze. "Don't worry about it. You're young, and life's got alot more for you to see. You'll learn that stuff like this won't bother you after a

Theo started to speak, hesitated, but then agreed, "Alright."

He laid a hand over his heart, a pang hitting him as Elyse's image surfaced in his thoughts. Love was a relatively new terrain for him. Before Elyse came into the picture, there was Kaelyn.
