Chapter 48 Queen's Advice

• Annie
• I'm woken up a short time later by Dr. Henrietta, Queen Clarita, and my mother, all hovering over me with concerned looks on their faces. I'm not sure how long I've been asleep, for all I know it could've been a few minutes because I know Daniel enlisted these three take care of me before he left. It seems they were a little late. I think back to what just happened; Vanessa must've known I would be alone.
• "I'm so sorry baby, we got held up for a bit, there was a huge spill all over the floors by the conjoining hallway so we had to take the longer way to your room." My mother says with a sheepish smile and it all falls into place. Of course there was a huge, accidental spill stalling the people who were supposed to "babysit" me. Accident my ass. Vanessa was confident she'd have me alone because she ensured it from the start. Typical. I don't trust her as far as I can throw her, but this piece of information makes me think about all she said. I know I can't keep all this to myself. I have to tell someone.
