| � Dustin�s well being is what�s most important right now. I am fine, my baby is fine. I will be going home with my fianc� and taking time off there.� � Will you be pressing charges against, Mr. Waldenberg?� � That has yet to be determined. I am speaking with the police now and we are handling the situation. I have personally spoken with Dustin�s mother and father and they�ve given their most sincere apologies and are willing to do whatever�s necessary to help Dustin.� � Mr. Carter, What�s your take on this whole thing? Are you angry at Mr. Waldenberg?� � I uh� I�m just glad he�s not dead. He needs help and I�ll feel a lot better when we get home and recuperate at our own pace-� � But are you angry with him?� � Yes. I�m angry that my child�s life was ever in jeopardy, and I�m angry that I let my insecurities over power my judgement and I�m angry when I think about what I could have lost; but I�m not angry with Dustin. I have no doubt in my mind that he loved Heather, and he wanted to protect her.. that�s all, and-� Dustin reached over and shut off the television, just as the door opened. A tall, blonde, leggy young woman with violet eyes and ample breasts came in carrying a clipboard. � Dustin?� She asked softly. He turned his attention to her and smiled; his emerald sparkling. � Hello Rose. How are you today?� � I�m good. How are you?� � Never better, just watching an old movie,� He said motioning towards the television. � Its actually pretty good. Not like going out to see a movie though. But it�s still good,� � Great. Dr. Harris is ready to see you,� � Thank you, Rose,� He stood and straightened out his clothes and walked over to her. � Could you do me a favor?� He asked. � Sure. What is it?� � Could I have some stationary? I need to write my father. There�s some thing I need to tell him,� � Sure. I�ll have it ready for you after your session with Dr. Harris,� � Thank you Rose.� He smiled. � You�re very pretty. Has anyone ever told you that?� She shook her head bashfully and looked away. � Dustin-� � No, I mean it. You�re beautiful. And I have a good feeling that I�m going to be getting out soon, and I�d like to see you� I mean if you don�t have a boyfriend or anything?� � I�d like to see you too Dustin,� � Great. Well I better get going. I don�t want to be late,� � Okay,� She smiled. � Don�t forget that stationary,� He smiled. � I wont,� He looked past her to check the hallway, before quickly planting a gentle kiss on her cheek. Rose blushed and turned around walking away quickly. Dustin watched her until she was out of sight, a smile playing on his lips. He looked down at his watch. � No, we don�t want to be late do we?� He said before leaving his room and heading for Dr. Harris� office. The End �2001 Home |
