Naomi felt uneasy, so she decided to visit Olivia in the hospital the next morning to check on her. When she got to Olivia's room, she was surprised to find it empty.
She stood there for a moment, confused, and then leaned back in her wheelchair. A nurse walked by, and Naomi asked her, "Do you know where the patient from this room went?"
The nurse stopped and looked at Naomi. "Do you mean Mrs. Harris?"
It took Naomi a moment to respond after hearing Olivia referred to that way. "Yes, that's her."
"She was discharged this morning. Someone took her home," the nurse explained.
"She went home?" Naomi repeated, trying to process the information.
"Yes, this morning," the nurse confirmed. She then asked, "Are you her sister?"
Naomi's voice softened. "I am."
"Oh, didn't anyone tell you?"
Just then, Hillary arrived. She had just gotten to the hospital and hurried over when she saw Naomi. "Naomi, are you here to ask about Olivia?"
Hearing Hillary, Naomi fell silent for a while before saying, "Mom, they took her home."
Hillary was stunned. "She went home?"
"Didn't Tyler tell you?" Hillary asked, concerned.
