Chapter 7

I tossed my phone onto the couch and went to take a shower.

Halfway through, my phone started ringing.

I ignored it.

After I finished drying my hair, I glanced at my phone.

My mom had called.

I called her back.

"Hey, Mom, what's up?" I asked.

"Jane, can you come home this weekend?" she said.

"What's going on?"

"I went to the hospital for a check-up, and the doctor said my blood sugar's high. I need to go back for another test."

"Is it serious?"

"I don't know yet. They want me to get my blood drawn on Saturday."
