“Lie there for the moment. The doctors say they have to check you when you wake up. I’ll call them over. Be right back.”

Wilson said that and left, and Elsie was left to steam.

The way she saw it, that was a polite refusal. Seemed like she’d thought too much of it.

Elsie sighed, feeling a bit depressed.

After a while, the door was opened.

She watched as Georgia and Robert filed in with Annie and Wesley.

The kids rushed in front of her bed and took her hands on either side.

“You’re finally awake, Auntie Elsie. Last night was so scary.”

Annie said that, while Wesley chimed in.

“Are you hurting anywhere, Auntie Elsie? How do you feel?”

Being fawned on by two kids like this, Elsie’s depressed mood temporarily faded, and she beamed at the children.

“I’m born lucky and always managed to turn danger around. Don’t worry, I’m fine. Once I rest up for a few days in the hospital, I’ll be up and kicking again.”

Hearing Elsie say that, Georgia smiled with relief. Seemed like Elsie was fine. She walked over and spoke to her.

“Since you’re this energetic, I can relax. I haven’t told Vanessa about this yet. Do you want me to tell her?”

The incident had occurred in the middle of the night, and Georgia didn’t want to call Vanessa in the small hours and make her worry.

She hadn’t told Vanessa this morning, either. She felt like Elsie needed to agree to it.

“Let’s leave it. Vanessa’s taking care of her child every day, and she’ll be really worried knowing I was hurt. I’m out of danger now, and I can just go over to G City to see her after a while. It’s been a long time, and she must be missing us. Do you want to come with me?”

As Elsie said that, Annie chimed in next to her mother.

“I haven’t seen Auntie Vanessa for a while. I want to see Auntie Vanessa too.”
