I had come to terms with the fact Jake was in the wind. I managed to hack into my personal phone to retrieve Jake's actual number, he had awnsered once but didn't say anything as I begged him to come get me too. After they first call on my first night awake he never picked up again, but I sent him a text most every night just senseless messages.

Kig: I miss you. I want to understand and explain my end to you. Please?

Kig: PT Was rough today, Dan almost swept the floor with me. Xoxo

Kig: I kicked ass today! Please I know you're reading my texts.

Kig: Dan and I watched the movie Hush tonight, I wish you were here cause I'd have incentive to actually get my legs back.

Kig: I'm sure at this point you either can't respond or you hate me. My feeling haven't changed Jake.

Kig: Ha! In PT I made a huge mistake and not only tripped myself but the therapist.

Kig: Bet yesterday made you laugh. It was hilarious. They postponed PT today. Hannah and Lilly are worried.

Kig: I spoke to a Friend. You aren't wanted anywhere anymore. PT went okay, pretty sure they'll turn me loose soon.

Kig: Cooper called today. You ditched him? He said he told you everything. I don't understand why you won't communicate.

Kig: I beat Dan to Walk!

Kig: Jake?

Kig: Please, at some point just send me a sign your okay.

Kig: Alright I get it, I found Hannah and now I don't matter. Message received loud and clear.

That was the last time I had texted Jake from the hospital. I was beyond upset with him and myself, I could understand him running off on Cooper but why hadn't he found a way to get me a message.
I was lost in thought as I climbed into the Green Trailblazer and waited for Dan to get in the back as Jessy waited to drive.

"Kig? Did you hear what I asked?" Jessy said

"Mmmm No sorry lost in thought." I muttered

"Where too?" Jessy asked

I looked in the mirror at Dan who said "It's up to you."

"Did anyone clear my stuff out of the hotel?" I asked

"Oh No Miss Walter said to leave it." Jessy smiled starting the truck

"Can we go there and get my stuff?" I asked

Jessy didn't awnser but drove us to the Hotel. Dan waited in the truck as we packed my things. I noticed one thing was missing: My Laptop, so before I checked out I politely asked Alfie "Have you seem my laptop?"

"The hoodie man came and got it." Alfie whispered with a finger to his lips.

When I got back to the truck I wasn't sure where to go until Dan asked something that shocked Jessy "Kig? Do you want to stay at the Hut with me?"
