What's next?

Heading home

The two weeks that you were in the hospital recovering were a pain and a drag on your mental health, that was a given, especially as Nicollete made good on her promise that your father would be taken out of your life. Your friends Chris and Danielle kept you company in the hospital as much as they could and plowed you with information from the community about the accident. You took it in stride, learning how to adjust to people's understanding of your living situation now.

On the day of discharge, Saunders and Kelly had made an appearance together to go over the NDA one last time and to ask if you had any questions or concerns. You had long since given up trying to ask them for information on your father, realizing that even if they did know anything, they were ethically bound not to disclose that information to you. Instead, you just shook their hands respectively to thank them for taking good care of you and then, for good measure, you gave Nurse Juanita a warm hug. You said, in a most sincere way, that you were going to miss her. She in turn told you, in no uncertain terms, that she didn't want to see you again in her ward.

The Uber lift was a quiet one as you tuned out any sort of conversation until you arrived back at your home, realizing that you were now living a bachelor life at the tender age of 18. The house was paid off, your bank account held enough funds to carry you over for the year comfortably, and you were now trying to figure out how you were going to be living on your own.

At least that is what you thought as you glanced down the driveway at the sound of a car turning off the road and approaching you. It wasn't one that you had seen before and as it came to a stop and the people inside stepped out and approached you, you just continued to look puzzled.

"Can I help you?"
