Chapter 82 : Don't Believe Every Rumor

“Do something to help him!” Susan cried, hugging Toby’s limp, unconscious body.

I saw Ellis step aside, pulling his phone out of his pocket. He made a quick call. “I’ve got the best pediatrician in the state on his way here to look at Toby,” he said.

“Thank you,” Susan said, sighing and hugging her son.

We all stood around in silence as Toby lay there completely still and Susan continued to cry over him. I stood on the edge of the crowd, holding Ken’s hand. Ellis stayed close to Toby.

It didn’t take long for the pediatrician to get there. The crowd remained silent while he pulled out his medical bag and started checking Toby’s vitals. He got an electric blanket out and put it over him to warm him up.

“Do you have a change of clothes for him?” the doctor asked. “We should really get him into something dry.”

“Yes, of course,” Susan said.

“Mommy, what’s wrong with Toby?” Ken asked.

“He got hurt, baby,” I explained.

“Is he going to be okay?” Ken asked me.
