"I don't know." Michael spat. "It's like he vanished."

"Ashton, we need to go hear the verdict. Are you coming, Michael?" Luke asked.

"No, I'm going back to the hospital." Michael said sadly.

"We'll show up at the hospital after the verdict is read." Luke said as he dragged Ashton through the doors of his personal h*ll.
