The Hitting Zone

"I guess it wasn't that big of a deal." Noah grumbled Wednesday evening over dinner.

"Noah, he said he had something else to attend to." Dad reminded him.

It was five days after watching the Friday night game. Five days since I've seen Jeremy. He and the whole A's team had put on a show Friday night, hitting home run after home run. For a total of eight! Two came from Maberry and one came from Jeremy. It was a great game to finish off a great day.

Saturday, Mom stuck true to her idea, keeping me isolated on the couch. I only got up to go to the restroom. Everything else was taken care of by her. Whenever I was hungry, she brought me food. Every hour she would bring a bag of ice for me to use for twenty minutes. She even got my textbook from my room after I told her I was bored of watching tv. I had never been looked after so attentively. Not even during my stay at the hospital.
