Chapter 22

	As soon as Isaac, Taylor, Zac, & Beth got back to the house, 
Taylor called the cel-phone. *Ring* *Ring* *Ring* 
	"Hello," answered Walker just waking up. 
	"Dad, Beth's at our house. We just picked her up in Broken 
Arrow," Taylor said. 
	"Ok, here's your mom, talk to her for a sec. I'm going to call 
Kate & Kristin," said Walker, then handing the phone to Diana. 
	"Mom? Hi, Beth's at our house and we have a problem," said 
Taylor worriedly. 
	"What's the problem dear?" Diana asked, releaved that Beth's 
ok. 
	"She ran away because they beat her," said Taylor. 
	"Honey, you don't know that," said Diana. 
	"Mom, does Beth lie that much? No. Besides she has a huge 
bruise on her cheek," Taylor said. 
	"Well, where is she now?" Diana asked, now too getting worried.
	"She's in the guest room, sleeping," Taylor answered. 
	"Ok, I'll talk to her tomarrow then. I have to go now, but 
I'll see you in a couple of hours," Diana said before she hung up the
phone.
