Nurses ran the show. Husky women in their forties who distinguished themselves with different sets of festive scrubs.They wheeled me back before the Gray Lady returned, and even though I craned my neck to see through the big waiting room windows, I didn’t see her outside. I thought of leaving a trail from my chair to the back room, but I didn’t have any bread crumbs. Besides, how did I know she’d follow the path? Who was I kidding? That lady was gone. How could I have believed that nonsense abo...ut calling the Dean? She wasn’t off to deal with Claude. She’d abandoned me. In this condition I was more trouble than I was worth.The nurse helped me into a stall, then pulled the curtain shut and left me alone again. Ten minutes may have passed, but it felt longer, and I couldn’t even lie down for fear of aggravating the sore spot between my shoulder blades. With each minute I imagined Claude and the Gray Lady driving another mile, another mile. By the time the nurse came back, they were far away.MoreLess
