In the Hospital [open]

Apr 27, 2008 22:05

Angie's just dozing, really, as well as a person can doze with an IV in one arm. No one ever sleeps well in the hospital, really. She's been on treatment for a couple of days and is feeling a little better, though she's still coughing quite a bit and is still weak ( Read more... )

Elias knocks softly, giving the door an apprehensive look. He's really not very good at hospitals. Part of him is hoping that he can just slip in, leave the flowers he's holding, and slip back out before anyone notices he's there.

"Don't get up," her mother jokes. "I'll get it."

The woman who answers the door looks just like a grown-up Angela. Her hair is a little curlier and her nose is different than Angela's but the resemblance is still fairly strong.

"Hey," she says with a grin, answering the door, "you one of Angie's friends?"

He takes an almost imperceptible step back; he hadn't expected Angela's mother at all. "Uh. Uh. I'm her...yeah. Uhm. I'm Elias?"

"Oh, hi," she says. "I've been wanting to meet you. Come on in. Angie's dozing a bit, you know how sucky hospitals are to sleep in. I'm Shelly, Angie's mom."

Later in the day comes another soft knock. Mark is true to his word and has brought homework assignments. He has also brought other things as well. mark is a very resourceful boy.

Angie's mom answers the door again. Another boy? "Hi," she says. "I'm Angie's mom." She has a pleasant smile and a very distinct resemblance to Angela.

Another boy indeed. This boy isn't quite as nervous as Elias...okay, maybe he is, but it manifests differently? He blinks and his fingers find the strap of his bag. "Uh, hi Angela's mom. I'm Mark. Uh. A friend from school. I've got her homework assignments for the week?"

She laughs. "Shelley DeAngelis. Still getting used to the 'mom' thing." Shelley grins at him. "Thanks for bringing that. Angie's sort of bored, you want to come in?"

Whether he wants to or not, she's steering him inside subtly.
