WashijaA Body?
Fran reached the spot where Bandit was standing. She followed his gaze into the garden. At first, everything seemed normal. But then Fran noticed something in the dimly lit garden area, it was a pile of clothes in the middle of the garden. Frowning in confusion, Fran looked closely and her eyes went wide when she realized it was not a pile of clothes, but a body!
Seeking Help
Fran rushed downstairs already dialing 911 on her way. She did not know who it was or what happened here, but this was something that needs to be reported. She told the operator there is a body lying in the middle of the garden and she doesn’t know if it’s dead or alive. The operator assured her to stay put and that help is on the way.
Inspecting The Body
As Fran got near the body she spotted someone familiar, it was Mary’s dog Sugar. Fran knew it meant only one thing, the body belonged to Mary! She rushed towards the dog and looked at the body, it was indeed her neighbor. The dog whimpered as Fran petted his head. She knew the dog must be scared. Hesitantly, Fran reached out and checked Mary’s pulse.
Still Breathing
Fran realized Mary was still breathing! She was not dead, she was unconscious. Fran was relieved, to say the least. She could hear the ambulance approaching in the distance. She sat with Mary holding her hand and waited for help. Fran didn’t know how Bandit heard Mary fall, but she was so glad he found her.
Help Me
Fran was waiting for the ambulance to approach when she heard a tiny cry escape from Mary’s mouth. Fran looked down at Mary’s face, her eyes were opening slightly. “Help me….” she whispered weakly. Fran asked her to hold on and assured that help is on the way.
Ambulance
As the Ambulance took Mary to the hospital, Fran took Sugar back to her room. She just prayed for Mary to be okay. But she wouldn’t know much before the next morning. Someone from the old age home called Mary’s daughter who will reach the hospital and stay with her overnight.
