Clinic - Morning After

[pyramid_is_life]

Kara exhales and engages in her favourite pastime since entering the clinic last night; staring up at the ceiling and contemplating what a truly frakked up mess her life has become. She shifts awkwardly on the bed and reaches over for the glass of water, when a tall man in a suit walks into her room

Soon after her phone call, Lee returns to the clinic to help her back to her room. He doesn’t ask many questions and she certainly doesn’t give many answers. He also doesn’t notice the scattered pieces of a torn up business card on the floor, or else there would be a rather sticky question asked.

Dr. Wilson signs off a pair of crutches and a roll of bandages for her and together the two make it back to the dorms.

He tries to make her comfortable but she obviously wants him out of the room so he plans to leave as soon as he’s sure that she’ll be all right on her own. Still unsure of what to say, he kisses her forehead gently, is rewarded with a flinch and her eyes not meeting his.

With one look back at her lying on the top of her bed, he heads back to campus to finish out the day.
