The next morning the doctor gave permission for Michelle to go home, once they were home her mother cooked a huge meal and invited David over to enjoy it with them. They finished their meals an enjoyed an hour of Davids off-hand comedy before ended their night,after walking David to the door Michelle returned to the kitchen where her mother was cleaning the dishes.

“You need some help with those?” Michelle asked leaning against the wall.

“No no, you just got out of the hospital,I’ll do them.” Her mother replyed

“You look tired..I can do it.” Michelle asked again.

“I’m fine, you go on up to bed, I’ll finish up here.” Her mother said with a smile.

Waving Michelle turned heading up the stairs, she opened the door to her room an a strange feeling washed over her, as if she had returned from a long journey finally making it back home.She walked inside falling deep into the thick woven clothes that covered her bed.
