Tess never got stared at so strongly as she did while bringing Jeremy home and so she got a jet-cab to avoid more stares. The driver's eyes constantly switched from the road to see the zombie beside her on the back seat. His knitted brows in the rear-view mirror could have been from concern about the fellah. Or it could have been the blood he had dripping from his nose to mess up his cab!
Jeremy's parents and Petra weren't the only ones who wanted to know what happened. But Tess refused to say anything until Jeremy woke up in the hospital. He had no memory of what happened, and the nurse said he had amnesia. With that news, Tess answered all the questioning lips.
She told them Jeremy followed her to a public restroom after the concert they went to. When she came back to meet him, she saw several Priman officers chasing two crooks from the area. Jeremy was on the ground and beaten up after he refused to hand over his wallet.
