I couldnt have moved even if Id wanted to .”I realized that he was serious. “I was relying on you to call a doctor assoon as you came home.” Jack went on.” It hasnt bitten me yet but I darentdo anything to upset it. It might wake up. Im sick of this,” he said, ：”I took it for granted that you would have come home an hour ago.” There was no time to argue or apologize for being late.
