Eudora George was still lying on the bed and she had yet to wake up. However, the warmth was beginning to return to her body.
Amos Granger reached out to help her up. He whispered to her, "Eudora, get up and eat something."
Eudora was still in a trance and she seemed to be mumbling something under her breath. Amos leaned over hurriedly to listen to what she was saying. He then realized that she was calling his name over and over again. "Amos, I'm sorry..."
Amos' heart tightened. She had already fallen sick and yet she was still apologizing to him.
It was obvious that he was the one who should be sorry! He held her hurriedly in his arms, "Eudora, don't say that. It's my fault. When I called home yesterday, I should have known that something was off when I didn't get to hear your voice.
