CHAPTER 25: BEFORE SHE FALLS
*
Three days later…
Lucy Lindsey returned to her room on the 7th floor. Showing signs of stability, Nikki feels at ease that her mother has excellent improvement each day.
To follow their arrangement with the mysterious man, she must take a rest; and avoid staying awake at night. She hired Jasmine to watch her mother until she gets well and returns to her regular daily life.
She went home with Aunt Maria during the night, and Jasmine left, watching her mother with Caitlin, who was often assigned night shifts.
Her mother constantly urges her to go home in the evening. She doesn't want to leave her mother's side. But Maria told Lucy about the Doctor's advice that she had a red blood deficiency due to stress and lack of sleep.
It was the fifth day since her mother's surgery. She might have to stay another week in the hospital, which is what Doctor Ben advised.
