Colleagues to lovers

Chapter 10

Avery walks away. And Sarah feels so incredibly guilty. Lyanna is in the hospital and she just made out with her ex. It wasn't good. It didn't feel right. Sarah sat down in her chair and put her head on her desk. She felt like she couldn't do anything right and that things were just going wrong lately. But on the other hand, she thinks she's acting out. So she's really in a dilemma. Sarah grabs her things and walks out of the classroom. She still has an hour before her next class starts, so she decides to go see Lyanna for a while. She drove to the hospital and walked to Lyanna's room. When she arrived at the room, Lyanna was sitting there reading a book. Sarah knocked on the window and Lyanna immediately looked up. 

"Hey Sarah, come sit down," Lyanna said. 

Sarah sat down on the edge of the bed. She looked at Lyanna and she was immediately happier than before. As if she makes all her problems disappear. She had forgotten about Avery right away and she only thought about Lyanna.

"I missed you," Sarah says. "I missed you too Sarah. But the doctor can come right over and tell me when I can go home again," Lyanna says. "That's great. I'm so glad you're doing better," says Sarah. "Me, too. I hate lying in this bed all the time doing nothing," says Lyanna. "I totally get that Lyanna," says Sarah. "How is your husband doing, by the way?", asks Lyanna. "Not much better. We do talk a little more, so that's nice. But I think he's trying to avoid me a little bit," says Sarah. "Strange," says Lyanna. "Indeed. The kids even caught on I think," says Sarah. "Oh no that's not good. Then things will go wrong very soon," says Lyanna. "I know. But I don't know what to do about it," says Sarah. "You have to stay calm. It will work itself out," says Lyanna. "You think? I just don't know anymore Lyanna," says Sarah. "I understand it's an awkward situation, but you have to give it time. It will probably work itself out," Lyanna says. "Okay. Thanks Lyanna. I really needed that for a moment," says Sarah. "No problem. I always want to help you," says Lyanna. 

And then the doctor came in. At that moment, Lyanna needed Sarah very much. She still found it a little scarier than she expected. 

"Hello ma'am, I have news for you," the doctor said. "Tell me. I'm ready," Lyanna says. "Well it's like this. You can go home," the doctor says.

Lyanna was very relieved. For a moment she thought the doctor was going to tell bad news. But it wasn't so she was very happy.

"You can go home Lyanna," said Sarah. "I can go home," said Lyanna. "True. But you are not allowed to work yet. You still have to rest this week. You must not do many exhausting things. So is there someone at your house who can help you?" the doctor asks. "That will be fine. I have plenty of people around me who do want to help me," Lyanna says. "Then that's settled, too. I hope not to see you again soon. Continue to take care and take care of yourself. You still have to sign some papers, but then you can go home soon," said the doctor. "Thanks doctor," says Sarah. "No problem," says the doctor. "Bye," says Lyanna. "Bye," says the doctor. "I can go home again," Lyanna said. "Isn't that great," says Sarah. "That's fantastic", Lyanna said. "You pack your things then. I have two more lessons to teach and then I'll come pick you up. Is that a good idea?", Sarah asks. "Sounds good. Better go soon or you'll be late," says Lyanna. "I'm already going," says Sarah.
