34 Letting Him Go Again

34 Letting Him Go Again (Winona)

The next day, I finally got the chance to catch up with Lisa. Apart from text messages to fill her in on Abby, I hadn't seen her since the night I took her home after her confession over the drugs scandal. "Wow, this suite is amazing. Can I go see Abby?"

"Sure. She's been awake and able to have clear fluids since the infection started clearing up."

"I'm so happy. Does that mean she's out of the woods?

I shake my head. "Far from it I'm afraid. Another operation next week. Jayden will be giving a blood,sample today, possibly Judy as well although I really hope I don't have to rely on her to do the right thing." We walk to Abby's room and she gives a tiny smile. "Aunt Lisa, yay!"

"Hey there, poppet. You feeling better?"

Abby nods, "I got jelly for dinner."

"Oh my goodness. That's amazing." Lisa sanitizes her hands and gives Abby a high five. "Winning!"

The nurse smiles. "I'll head off for dinner. Buzz if you need anything before I'm back."

"Thank you so much."

"There's enough toys in here to sink a battleship." Lisa says while looking around the room.

"I have the same number of flowers in my room."

"Jayden?" Lisa asks.

I nod. "Yes, Jayden."

"Mommy, who's Jayden?" Abby asks.

"Jayden is a friend of Mommy's."

"He got lots of toys for me."

"He did."

"And flowers for you?"
