the cuts in his ankle and head.” She motioned for Viggo to follow her and they

“He’s

“In a few
hours’ time” the doctor replied “I want to hold him until I’m sure that his

“Sorry”
“When can I go home. I want to just curl up and sleep and then take a shower. I

“How?”
“He is
going to come and stay with me” Viggo saved the situation “It’s much quieter

“Just

in the wheelchair, pushing him up to the front door.
“Any body
