On the other end of the Phone Carmen has no clue what just happened. She just stands there stunned. She looked behind her to see shanes jeep. She was frozen. She didn’t move but started calling all of their friends to let them know what happened and that they needed to get to the hospital as soon as possible, it didn’t look good.

The ambulance came and they finally got shane out of the car. And took off towards the hospital.

Carmen was still in shock while she was in the waiting room with all of their friends. After about six hours in the waiting room the doctor finally comes out to give an update on shane.

Dr Jones-“she is finally out of surgery, she sustained a lot of injuries to the left side of her body from the impact. We fixed the compound fracture that she sustained to the left arm. She also has quite a few broken ribs, and a pretty bad concussion.

Carmen looks at him in tears “is she going to be okay?”

Dr Jones- “if you would have asked me that six hours ago I would have told you I didn’t think so. But she did really well through surgery everything is good so far. Tonight will be the real test to see how she does. We are monitoring her very closely especially because of the concussion. Would you guys like to come back and see her?”

Bette-“ yes, family should be by her side for when she wakes up”

Dr Jones-“ right this way the” he stopped outside of shane’s room “I do need to forewarn you she doesn’t look very good.”

Carmen was the first to walk into the room and everyone had the same reaction. She broke down in tears and could barely compose herself. Shane had tube and wires all over the place. The left side of her face was black and blue and she had a cast on her arm.

Carmen-“this is my fault” looking at her shattered once lover

Tina-“ what do you mean Carmen?”

Carmen-“ I got into a fight with her on the phone over Sherry and distracted her and she pulled out in front of that truck. I did this to her….”
