Chapter 142: From Hospitals and Hotels...
After the detectives left the room, Susan left too, leaving Abby and Luka alone… she resolved to take some air outside the hospital… this was worse than she thought it was…
She was so deep in her thoughts, she didn’t even saw her husband and son approaching…
‘Sus…’ called Chuck…
Susan looked at her side and saw her son running to her…. she hugged him and picked him up, noticing he was crying…
Chuck approached her and asked:
‘Sus, are you ok?’
‘No…’ she said. ‘It’s bad, Chuck…’
Chuck put his hand on her back…
‘Why the things are not so easy for them?’ she asked. ‘I mean, to Abby and Andrew?’
He wanted to know that answer too…

Hotel, Hesperia:
Leaving the door open, Richard left, holding Andrew on his arms… he could pick the car he has robbed, but knew the police was looking for it…
Descending the stairs, hurrying, but careful for not falling down, he ran towards the parking lot of the hotel… it was deserted… he knew he had to rob another car…
Running to the avenue, he put out his gun from his belt and stopped in front of car passing on, pointing his gun to the driver… the woman braked right on top of them…
Richard walked to her, opened the door and pulled her from it… opening the back door, he pushed Andrew inside and closing it, ran to the driver spot, entering and closing the door shut, before pressing the gas…
The woman started screaming on the avenue for somebody to help… she ran to the hotel and the reception, telling the manager what had happened…
‘I knew it…’ he was saying while calling the police…

Hospital:
‘Luka?’ Abby called.
They were watching TV. She was laying on bed and he was sitting on the chair…
‘Hmmm…’ he said, looking at her.
‘Can you take me to see our daughter?’ she asked.
‘Are you sure?’ he asked. He didn’t want to pressure her… she would see Jean when she was ready…
She nodded…
‘I want to see her…’
‘Ok…’ he said getting up.
Picking up a wheelchair that was folded in the corner, he mounted it and helped Abby to get on it…
Exiting the room, he walked to the NICU and after taking the due precautions, entered...
Abby put her hand over her mouth when she saw Jean for the second time…
‘Are you ok, honey?’ asked Luka, kneeling at her side.
‘Yeah…’ said Abby. ‘Just emotional…’
Abby put her hand on Jean’s small hand… the baby looked at her mother…
‘She’s so small…’ she said.
‘Yeah, you need to see me close to her…’ said Luka.
‘She makes me…’ Abby started to say, but stopped, emotional.
Luka knew she was about to say Andrew…
‘Don’t worry, he’ll be back to us….’ He said, kissing her head…
Abby just nodded…
