"I know you were," she sighed. She hated it when people worried about her, and she knew that Johnny was the number one person, aside from her mother who tended to worry the most. Having grown up with her, Johnny was exposed to all the same experiences she was. Except, it must have been really scary the first few times he saw his cousin with an oxygen mask on or something like that. "I really didn't think it was that bad, but you clearly saw something different."
It was just as she figured too. Johnny suspected it as much as she and her mother did. They had stumbled onto something that they either weren't really sure about or just flat out didn't want to tell them about. She wasn't going to sit here and wonder what it was, if it was good or bad. She was too tired for that, and she knew from experience that eventually things would work themselves out into the light. "Don't burn anything down. They'll have to tell us eventually. I'm sure mom isn't going to let them start giving me medicine with her knowing what it's for." Or at least she hoped not.
