Ava

Will seemed to have gone for a walk so I quickly rummaged through her big duffel bag to search for Dr Lilly's contact number. It looked as if she had packed in hurry because all her clothes were rolled up, I began to pull out each clothing when I spot a piece of paper, I take it out and realize that it was a polaroid snapshot of our family back in 1990, Will was just a baby and me and Ava were about five when this picture was taken. Our Mother was in it as well carrying Will who looked so tiny, she had had a fever that day and my Mom wanted to bring her to the hospital to check her. Eva had just gotten the Polaroid camera and had begged my Mom to stay to take one picture. We all looked visibly happy that day, but that was just one of the few times we were happy as a family because there was always someone who didn't agree on something, it was mostly Eva or Mom, I usually went with anything and Will was just too shy to express herself. I was surprised that Will had Eva's Polaroid because Eva usually kept all her photos to herself. I carefully place it on the dressing table next to her phone. I finally found her wallet which was old and battered, upon opening it I found that she didn't have any money in it and that there wasn't a single credit card either, surprised I pried through the small compartments and finally found a card that had Dr Lilly's name and number on it. I hurriedly placed everything back into my bag and got to my room. I took my phone and punched in Dr Lilly's number and then paused for a moment. Will was definitely going to hate me for this but there were just questions that I needed answers to, such as the fact that she seemed to be in some kind of trouble. I hit dial and held my breath before I heard the familiar tone of Lilly's voice.

"Hello?"

" Hi, Dr Lilly, I don't know if you remember me but I'm Ava Johnson, Will's sister."

" Ava! My god how long has it been? Ten years or something? How are you doing?


"I'm fine I.... I just wanted to ask you some things about Will because she's in town and, well lets just say she hasn't really been herself since she got here and she has said she's been to see you a few months ago-"

" Uh, I'm sorry, but Will hasn't been to see me since she went to college, its been years actually, I haven't heard or seen her for a very long time."

" But she told me she saw you! Because she wasn't feeling alright,"

There was a momentary pause, before Lilly spoke again.

" Well there were actually some things I had wanted to talk to your mother about Will during her visits, but I assume your Mother isn't living with you is she? Would it be alright if I discussed it with you, considering she's living with you at the moment?"

"Yes, of course."
