Chapter 10 - The Woman in BlueA woman in blue scrubs stepped into the hallway.
She pushed a laundry cart.
Her head was lowered.
Security barely noticed her.
David did.
Something about the way she walked.
Something about the tilt of her shoulders.
"Stop."
The woman froze.
David's heart hammered.
She slowly raised her eyes.
His mother.
Bruised from the crash.
Covered beneath stolen hospital clothing.
"David," she whispered.
She pulled down the mask.
"Let me see my baby."
David stepped between her and the operating room.
"My daughter isn't yours."
His mother smiled sadly.
"She's destroying us."
Then her expression changed.
"I have to fix it."

Her hand disappeared into the pocket of her scrubs.
David saw the metal flash.
