Sheila awakes the next morning to find Willo all snuggled in bed. She walks to the window and notices all the animals are gone and it's a beautiful morning. Sheila walks away from the window and gets dressed. As she's leaving her room with the still sleeping Willo she chants "Vis Porta". This is a spell to seal a room and to keep it from being opened while she goes to check on Abby and talk to her about what had happened after Willo was born.
Sheila makes her way down the hall and checks in Abby's room. She calls her name and then walks in. Abby isn't in the bed. It looks like it hasn't been slept in all night. Sheila checks the bathroom and still no Abby. She walks out and checks the bathroom at the end of the hall. "Abby?" Still Abby is nowhere to be seen. Sheila begins to worry. She checks the kitchen and then the living room and still no Abby. Sheila walks to the front door and opens it. She steps out into the brisk morning air. There she finds Abby sitting on a chair wrapped in a blanket with a blank look on her face. "Abby!?" Sheila screams as she walks toward her. Abby doesn't move a muscle. "Abby, we need to get you back inside." Sheila trys to get her up and Abby smacks her arm away. "Just leave me." She says in a cold voice. Sheila grabs her by the arm and pulls her out of the chair. "You will not behave this way around me. This is your first and last warning." Abby reluctantly gets up and follows her mother into the house.
As they walk in, Sheila takes her to the living room to sit on the couch and then goes to the kitchen to make her some hot tea. As the tea is brewing, she goes to the bathroom to draw a hot bath for Abby. Sheila goes back to the living room to tell Abby that it's time she gets in the tub and she will bring her some hot tea. Abby gets up and walks to the bathroom. She walks in and gets undressed to get in the tub. Sheila walks in and places the tea on the edge of the tub. When you are done, we need to have a talk. With that being said Abby just looks at her mom and then gets in the tub. Sheila walks out and lets out a small huff. She then walks to the kitchen to get on the phone to call Rudy. As she dials the number she prays to herself that he answers. "Hello?" A man's voice on the other end picks up. "Rudy?" "Yeah." Rudy answers. "Thank god you picked up. This is Sheila. I need you to come home asap. Abby had the baby. She's going through a hard time. She isn't herself. She's more like an empty shell when she walks around." Rudy clears his throat on the other end. "Um, I can't really..." Before he finishes Sheila cuts him off. "I don't care who or what you are doing. This is your family and your wife needs you. She's tried to hurt the baby and I can't trust her around him. You will tell your boss that you have a family emergency and need to leave. You will get in the car and drive like hell till you get back. I expect to see you here in a couple of hours." With that being the last thing Sheila says, she hangs up the phone. Rudy hangs up the phone, gets out of bed and gets dressed. He does just as Sheila says by telling his boss he needs to leave and that it's a family emergency. He packs his bags and heads to his car thinking to himself "Tried to hurt him? I thought it was a girl."
After Sheila hangs up the phone she goes and knocks on the bathroom door. "Abby? I'm coming in." Sheila opens the door. Abby is just laying in the tub staring straight ahead. She hasn't touched her tea or washed any part of herself. It's like she's staring off into space in a catatonic state. Sheila kneels down and grabs a sponge. She places some soap on it and begins to wash Abby. When she's done she rinses her off and then gets her hair wet. She washes her hair and then gets a towel ready to get her out of the tub. Sheila pulls the plug out of the drain and helps Abby to stand up. She wraps the towel around her body and takes her to her room. Sheila walks her to the bed and sits her down. "I'm going to get you some fresh tea. Why don't you get dressed and come out to the kitchen. I will make some breakfast. Oh, I called Rudy. He is on his way here. Should be here in an hour or so." After that, Sheila walks out and closes the bedroom door behind her. She walks to her room and opens the door enough to peak in. Willo is still sound asleep. She closes the door once more and makes her way to the kitchen.
