Thursday there was no Kaylee in school, but Marie showed up. She had a lot more to tell about Kaylee and how they planned to take her home that night. She would be in school tomorrow. Probably. It didn't sound reassuring until Kaylee sent a group text to me, Noah, and Alisha.
Kaylee: Hey guys, I have my phone with me now.
Alisha: Great! It's been weird not having you around! When do you get home officially?
Noah: How's the arm holding up?
Me: Are you feeling better?
Kaylee: Will go home this afternoon if I clear the discharge procedures. Arm feels heavy. Got enough painkillers though.
Kaylee: I won't be going to school tomorrow.
Noah: What about the game?
Kaylee: I'm going to stay home then too.
Noah: That's lame. Want us to come over to keep you company?
Alisha: Yea! That's a great idea. We normally hang out on Friday nights so why stop now. I'll come over after baseball practice.
