Chapter Three: The Talk

'Ok," the nurse looks down at his clipboard, "Annabelle. Your brother is here to pick you up." Annabelle thought deeply then smiled. She knew that it was Andy to pick her up since she had no brother. "Here is your duffle and the bathroom is in the right corner of your room incase you forgot," the nurse looked embarrassed. He knew that no one ever forgets where the bathroom is when it is in that persons own room. "Thanks," Annabelle said with a soft smile. She quickly changed her clothes and did her hair. She looked in the mirror and smiled feeling satisfied with her look. Annabelle walked out of her room and looked for directions to get out of this place. All of a sudden, someone cover her eyes with their hands. She dropped her duffle and turned around. She saw eyes that were as green the leaves in the forest when the sun hits them just right. "We really need to talk about what we are going to do," was the first thing out of Andy's mouth. "What no 'Hey Ann'?" Annabelle was shocked by his seriousness. "Let's not talk in here. There are cameras and people and police and who knows what else," Annabelle grabbed Andy's hand to get him to his car. Andy let out a small chuckle. "Ann, it's this way to Bertha." Bertha is the name of Andy's mustang. As they left, the secretary thanked them and told them to come back soon. Annabelle tried not to laugh. As the two got in the car, Andy said, " I sure hope people don't have to go back to the hospital soon. That's just weird." Therevwas a brief silence then Andy spoke again, "So where do you want to go? I'll go anywhere really!" "I wasn't really planning to go anywhere. I just want to go to a new life." Annabelle's voice started to shake. Andy started the engine and began to drive.
