Santiago's Command
“In fact, she almost retorted—yes, the Santini Strain!
Lucy, who had been hoping for permission to leave, was dismayed when he announced he wanted her to stay in bed until the next day and after that he would review the situation.
In the event, she did not feel much like getting out of bed. She slept a good deal of the time, waking on one occasion during the early evening to find Gabby perched on the end of her bed.
She knew that Santiago would be furious if he found her there and, as the girl b...egan with, ‘Don’t worry, Papá has gone to the hospital to see Uncle Ramon,’ it was pretty obvious that the child had been warned not to visit.
She was saved from having to shoo the child away by the arrival of Josef, who came with one of the rehydration drinks that the doctor had instructed she take through the evening.

The next morning Lucy was feeling better and would have welcomed a visit from Gabby to stop her replaying every conversation she had ever had with Santiago in her head over and over.MoreLess
