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's mom hurried to the hospital after she heard what had happened to her son. The nurse led Johnny's mother to the room Johnny was in, she ran into the room and grabbed her sons hand. " Oh Johnny what happened? , are you okay?" she said. "I'm okay mom ... why are you here?" Johnny said to her in a very odd way. His mother starred at him weirdly "What do you mean?" "I'm your mother of course I'm going to be here" Johnny stayed quiet , he tried to get sit up but he couldn't his mom tried helping him but he denied for her help. "Where have you been all those other times I was in trouble? huh!!? 'Mom". "I needed you at the most toughest times and you weren't there!, so I don't consider you as my mom nor my blood". She gasped , her eyes started to water she left the room running. Johnny felt bad but it was for the best. Johnny started bawling his eyes out, he wanted her to come back but it was to late.
