"What has gotten into you?!", Cassie said while putting a hand on her distressed friends shoulder.
Almost instantly, Sarah shoved it aside. "Dont touch me! I cant believe you treat shrinks like theyre not human beings! That poor girl could have died!"
"Where did that come from? Sarah, please, just take a breath.", once again, Cassie reached for her friend only to be rejected a second time.
"Okay, Im starting to think theres more to this than a sock. Care to tell me what this is about?"
Sarah stared wide eyed at her mother. The posture she displayed to her yound daughter, her arms crossed, eyebrow raised, it was the stance that said "you wont hear the end of this for quite awhile young lady". However, all Sarah could truly focus on, was the sock, still in the hand of her mother, now laying flat on her forearm, just under her chest!
"Poor Susanne.", she thought to herself. She could only imagine how terrifying it must be in there. The whole argument must have felt like a tornado, with how much her mother liked to add flare to communication with expressive hand movements. Sarah looked for any sign of Susanne, and could see a small lump in the sock at the bottom. She watched the small little shape wiggle in place, giving her a reason to relax a little, now knowing Susanne was atleast still alive... but that foot, it must be killing her.
"Sarah. Im waiting."
Meanwhile, you were kneeling on the now flat surface below you while also wincing in pain and holding your mangled foot. You felt like Sarahs mom hadnt put you down yet, as you could still feel slight movement. She must still be holding the sock somehow. At this point, you had enough. No more being flung around, no more of seeing nothing but white threads, no more putting it off! This foot needed to be taken care of now! With your mind made up, you take a deep inhale, and scream out!
"Hello!!! In here!!!"
Collectively, all three of the giants freeze. Sarah of course, knew exactly where that voice came from, but was to surprised to speak up.
Juliet (Sarahs mother) , paused, did she just hear that? It sounded like it came from right on top of her. She looked around the room for the source of the noise, unbeknownst to her, that a small shape was moving along the length of the sock and her forearm, towards her hand which clasped the exit shut.
"Uhm, Ma'am? Could you move your hand and let me out please?"
Another silence filled the room. There was no doubt in her mind. That voice was coming from the sock. Juliet looked down at her arms and uncrossed them. The sock once again dropped limp, and a shriek of pain broke the silence!
"Mom, be careful! She broke her foot!"
Now it was starting to make sense to her. Juliet held the sock below her face, pinched the sides of the socks hem and spread it open wide enough for her to look inside.
Susanne watched as an opening formed above, and a large deep brown eye loomed over top of her. With a nervous smile and a half wave, Susanne greeted Juliet.
"Uhm... Hi."
There is no response from her, as Juliet, looks up at her daughter.
"You brought a shrink home in your sock?", she asked, her voice dull, not giving you a hint as to what shes feeling about this discovery.
"Well, no not really. She kind of rode here on my sandal. But I want to help her! Shes really hurt!", Sarah pleaded.
"Wait!", Cassie chimed in. "That bug that busted your phone?! You brought that thing here!?"
"First off, that was you who slapped it out of my hand in the first place. Second, I already said I didnt bring her, she snuck in with me. But Im glad she did!"
Once again, from your position you see Juliet peer down into the sock at you. It was hard to read her eyes... but it looked like...
