Talking Again

.....

It was now midnight on January 27th, 2020. Layered Envy was currently sleeping in a chair next to her boyfriend Patissier Hansel, who was also asleep. Layered Envy had her hand holding her boyfriend's hand the whole time. She can be a little overprotective like Hansel's twin sister Gretel.

The next morning, Layered Envy opened her eyes and looked at the clock. It was only 7:15.

Layered Envy: It's been over 12 hours. I wonder...

She kissed her boyfriend on the lips, waking him.

Layered Envy: Are you okay?

Patissier Hansel: Yeah.

Layered Envy: It worked! The doctor was right. You got your voice back.

Patissier Hansel: What happened?

Layered Envy: You were in a coma for a few days. Thanks to your foster father.

Patissier Hansel: Did he do anything...nasty to me?

Layered Envy: No, not really. He just hurt you really badly is all.

Patissier Hansel: Where is he now?

Layered Envy: We had a trial for him, his wife, and Michaela. They were charged for child abuse, while Michaela was charged with murder, kidnapping, break-in, and sexual harassment. They're in jail now, where they're not going to hurt anyone ever again.

Patissier Hansel: And what about my sister?

Layered Envy: Oh, she's fine. She left the hospital yesterday.

Patissier Hansel: That's good.

Suddenly, they both heard a knock on their door. Lillian got up to answer it. It was Edward, Shelby's little brother.

Layered Envy: Hi, Edward.

Edward: Hi. Shelby's free to leave the hospital. How's the boyfriend?

Layered Envy: He'll be fine. He'll probably be in a wheelchair for a few days, but the doctor says that he can leave today.

Edward: Great! Ciel invited us to a party at your bakery.

Layered Envy: Did he?

Edward: Yep. I can't wait! See you at the party.

Deep-Sea Girl: Hi, Lillian.

Layered Envy: How are you doing?

Deep-Sea Girl: I'm feeling better. How's Hansel? Alexiel texted me on what happened between you guys.

Layered Envy: He's okay now. He was in a coma for awhile. But he woke up from it yesterday afternoon.

Deep-Sea Girl: That's good. I just want to see Alexiel again. Well, we'll see you 2 at the party.

The Gills family left. Lillian shut the door and then she pushed the nurse button. A nurse came in the room almost immediately.

Nurse: How can I help you?

Layered Envy: Do you have a wheelchair for him?

Nurse: Of course. I'll be right back.

She left the room and came back with a wheelchair.

Layered Envy: I'm going to pick you up now. Are you ready?

Patissier Hansel: Just don't drop me.

Layered Envy: I won't. Okay, on three. 1...2...3.

She managed to lift him up. Hansel was hanging onto her neck. Lillian set him down on the wheelchair.

Layered Envy: You ready to leave this place?

Patissier Hansel: You bet.

She wheeled him to the elevator, where she pushed the button that takes them to the front desk. After she checked Hansel out, they were both ready to leave. She wheeled him outside to her car.

Patissier Hansel: How am I getting in your car?

Layered Envy: I'm going to pick you up again and I'll put the wheelchair in the trunk. Good thing this thing can fold easily. You ready?

Patissier Hansel nodded.

Layered Envy: 1...2...3.

She picked up Hansel again and got him in the passenger's seat of her car. Once she buckled him in, she put the wheelchair in the trunk. Then she got in the driver's seat and buckled herself.

Layered Envy: Let's hit it! We have a party to get to.

She drove out of the hospital. She's hoping to surprise her boyfriend with this little celebration.
