Returning the Favor
Who: Amelia and Ben
When: Late Afternoon
Where: Phone
It had been nearly a week since the demon attacked Amelia and Ben. Since then Amelia's life had been a bit of a whirlwind. She had to deal with the authorities, the school protective logistics and parents of students. Any parent who pulled their student out of school for safety reasons were not to be penalized, Amelia had decided. This was a scary time and she couldn't blame a parent at all. On top of all that Amelia was planning on disclosing her health issues to school staff as she'd had larger chemo doses over the weekend. She wasn't sure how much time it would take to recover but her doctor made it clear that he felt her job was far too stressful. A leave of absence would be needed. At least until the fall term started.
Amelia's personal life wasn't doing so hot either. If you could call it that. A personal life, that is. She hadn't had a chance to talk to Ben about his brave act before and she worried he would think she really was scared after all. Unfortunately finding the time to sit down and have a conversation was difficult. Today though, now that she was home from school, Amelia decided she would give him a call and at least make sure he was doing okay. The demon had made it clear it was attacking her. Maybe keeping her distance was a good thing. But a phone call couldn't hurt.
She pulled her blackberry out and scrolled to Ben's number, she had all of the staff's personal numbers saved in her phone, and pressed call. She clicked around on her laptop, checking out some "cancer coming out" websites, while the phone rang.
