Dark Boundaries
“I can’t believe she ran from me. I thought she knew what happened to Eric.
My eyes are burning but I can’t take them off her. She looks so small and vulnerable in the hospital bed. The doctor said she should be fine. They’re keeping her for observation. The doctor gave me the evil eye, as if he knows what happened and that it’s my fault Kris is lying here.
A nurse comes in to check on Kris. I sit forward in the chair, watching her move around the bed.
“She should wake up any minute now,” the nurse says. I squint and read her name tag, Britney.
“Thank you, Britney.” I take in Kris’s pale complexion. “You’re sure she’s going to be okay?”
Britney smiles brightly at me. “She’s gonna be just fine.” She stands around for a few more minutes, doing absolutely nothing before she finally leaves.
It takes another two hours of complete torment before Kris starts to regain consciousness.
