She said, "I made plans with Melody to go dancing at a bar. I just want to go out and have fun."

Nigel frowned. "No, it's too late. You're not going anywhere. Go back to your room and get some rest."

He interrupted, "Your mother will be coming back to see you in the next couple of days."

What? She was stunned. "My mom is coming back? Isn't she dead?"
