Julia checked her phone when she woke up. She had 9 missed calls from her mom. She quickly called her mom.
"Hello? Julia?" Her mom asked.
"Hi mom why do I have so many missed calls? Is something wrong at home?" Julia asked sounding worried.
"Your dad was driving your sisters home from a baseball game and um... There was an accident." Her mom said slowly.
"What!? Is everyone okay?" Julia asked frantically.
"Well your dad and Kelsey are fine, but Katie has some broken bones and Delaney just got released from the ICU this morning. The crash was last night." Julia's mom said.
"Ok mom I will try to get home as soon as possible I just need to talk to Luke and Regan and everyone else." Julia promised.
"Okay sweetie, but take your time. I don't want you to worry."
"Okay, bye mom." Julia hung up the phone. She was still sitting in bed so she turned to her side and woke up Luke.
"What is it Julia?" Luke mumbled.
"Luke I need to go home my family was in a car accident." Julia said quickly.
"Okay Julia calm down for a minute." Luke said.
"No Luke I can't calm down! My sister was in the ICU and just got out! Who knows if she is going to be okay?" Julia snapped.
"Julia just stop for a minute, okay?" Luke begged and grabbed her hand.
"Stop it Luke! I need to leave!" Julia yelled as she shook his hand away from hers.
"Julia, why are you acting like this?" Luke asked demandingly.
"I'm just stressed, okay?! And I'd prefer if you didn't bother me." Julia said.
"Well if I bother you so much, then maybe you don't need me right now." Luke said as he walked out of the room.
"UGH!" Julia yelled. She packed her things as quickly as she could.
