Miss Josefina: Nobody's Princess

Chapter 42

Josefina was surrounded by a bunch of folks, feeling a bit sheepish. "I'm fine, the cut is just a scratch. I can get out of bed and walk around right now." She tried to stand up and take a few steps to show everyone she was alright on her feet.

Hattie grabbed her, insisting she lie down and rest up. "Josie, you've got to chill on the bed for a while," Hattie advised.

Garrett chimed in, "Your mom's right, just listen to her, will ya?"

Hattie, all worried, went on, "Josie, once you're home, you just lie down and rest. I'll find you a nurse who'll stick to you like glue, 24/7."

Garrett nodded, "I've ordered a bunch of health supplements for you. You can really build yourself back up once you're home."

The doctors were gobsmacked. Was all that really necessary?
