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.

    "Johnny , Your mother is here to see you."  
Johnny looked at the nurse and whispered "I don’t want to see her" 
"But she's your-" 
"I DON’T WANT  TO SEE HER" The nurse jumped at the change of his voice. 
"Ill tell her that you don’t want any visitors." The nurse walked out of the room. 
"Why did she have to come? She doesn’t even care about me." 
the nurse came back in, "Is there anything you need?" She asked with worry in her voice. 
"No , I'm fine. Thank you though." The nurse nodded at Johnny and walked out. 
Johnny sighed and closed his eyes.
