At the Hospital

"Let's take her to the hospital first, then I will send you home. Okay?" I suggested. "Okay." she replied.

I was at the hospital waiting outside the emergency room when my husband ran in worried."What happened to Annaelle?" he asked,

"I don't know, she was drinking a glass of orange juice then she fainted." I replied.

As I was done speaking the doctor came out of the emergency room "Doctor, how is she?" asked my husband anxiously, "The patient was poisoned. Don't worry she is now out of danger." The doctor replied,

"Poisoned?" I asked myself, "Poisoned." my husband repeated, "How is that possible?" He continued.

"Can we go see her?" I asked the doctor, "Of course." My husband rushed inside upon hearing the doctor's words. "Doctor, what was she poisoned with?" I asked,

"The patient is asthmatic. The overdose of vinegar in orange juice can be very harmful for her. Pay more attention in the future."

After speaking with the doctor I made my way into the hospital yard where Annaelle was staying, Irem was sitting on a chair next to her. Annaelle was fast asleep. "Why would you give your guest a vinegar drink?" my husband asked, his head bowed to the ground.

"I didn't, it is your mother who took care of Annaelle's drink." I replied.

"My mother?" he gasped, "but she knows annaelle can't drink that." he continued.

"Are you sure?" I asked. "We grew up together. I am certain of my statement." he replied, "I guess it was an inadvertent mistake." I tried to reassure him.

"It doesn't matter anymore Irem, she is safe." I said pouring a glass of water for him.

When I was handing him the glass Annaelle woke up, "Louis mother? I am sorry for the inconvenience I caused you." she said sitting up. "It is not your fault, it's my negligence." I said pouring a glass of water for her.

"Irem?" she smiled, "I am sorry for what my mom did." He apologized, "I think we messed up our drinks, it doesn't matter anymore."

"Oh Louis looks a lot like Irem, he is your son right …?" "Inira" I told her my name, "I am his dad" Irem replied. " She is my wife." he continued.

"Oh my bad." she took a zip of her water. "I am Irem's friend, Annaelle." she introduced herself.
