Cherry went back to her apartment as soon as she was able to bend and lift things again and Scott felt oddly bereft. He had gotten used to seeing her fast asleep when he got home from work and snuggling up with her and then being able to spend time with her as soon as he woke up.
He wished she would come back to stay permanently but wasn't sure how to bring it up. She had only stayed with him in the first place because she was recovering and needed help with things.
He hadn't seen her at all today because he had a dentist appointment as soon as he woke up and she was taking the GED anyway. She had to schedule an appointment at a testing center and it wasn't anywhere near where they lived so he didn't know when she would be back or how long it would take.
Scott had wished her luck via text as soon as he got off work this morning before he went to bed and hadn't heard from her since. He didn't know if she passed or not.
