Assignment

Your Task: Rewrite the hospital scene where Johnny's mother comes to visit. In your version, the nurse does not turn her away, but lets her in the room. Imagine Johnny's reaction. What would Johnny's mother say to him? What would Johnny say to her?

You are writing part of a narrative, not a script. Sentences, punctuation, and paragraphs should appear the way it would in a book. Use the book or passage above as an example. Pay special attention to the dialogue and how the author starts a new paragraph each time she changes speakers.

  A nurse appeared in the door way “Johnny” she said quietly “your mother’s here to see you”.         

      Johnny said “I don’t want to see her”.

  Johnny   said it loud and clear but the nurse brought her is anyway  and we went out of the room to give her and Johnny some space even though we wanted us stay with him in the room. We heard yelling and I heard a smack so we went in the room and Johnny’s mothers face is red and all of ours faces drop to the ground we were shocked his mother started crying and she said “why Johnny why”.
 
   she left the room and Johnny did not real eyes what he had done then he burst in tears we could tell that he wanted  to run but he could not get up.

  I said “what happen”. but then sodapop looked at me and shook his head.

 Darry said “lets give him some space”.

    So we left the room and then the nurse walked in the room and said “is every one ok”. every one had a sad look on there face as we walked out the room.
