When the nurse finally came back she came back with what looked liked to be some gauze, bandage, and a sterilizing wipe. "OK, Emily this will hurt do you want ummm?" The nurse looks at Ronnie, "Ronnie" I said. "Thank you. Do you want Ronnie to hold your hand?" "Hell no, he would probably put another scalpel in it." I decided to win this whether the nurse believes me or not. "What do you mean?" The nurse glares at Ronnie but I can see over her puffy gray hair that he didn't know what to say. "I don't know what shes talking about, its probably just the drugs talkin'. " The nurse turns to me, "Did he put the scalpel in your hand?" You are so busted Ronnie. "Yes he did nurse..." I search for a name tag on her scrubs. "Nurse Weiss, yes he did." The nurse leaves my side to press a small square red button, then out of no where 2 big, muscular security guards come into my room. "What's the situation?" says the guard standing to the right. "Ronnie here, physically assaulted Ms. Wright with a scalpel." The main guard looks at the scalpel that is still sticking out of my hand! "Don't worry Ms.Wright we will take care of this, but we need to get the police involved because this assault requires us to contact them." Ronnie's eyes widen. "Uuuh, the police? Don't you fellas think that's a little much?" Ronnie muttered trying to talk the guards out of it. "It's the law son, unless you want to go to Juvenal Prison." Ronnie looks down at the floor, "didn't think so" exclaims the guard.


After some talk about Ronnie with the police they only warned him about what would happen if this were to occur again, jail time. I wish he were to stab my other hand now if it means him behind bars.


The nurse walks into the lonely room with only me in it because the guards escorted Ronnie out of the hospital. "I remember my bullies like it was yesterday." said nurse Weiss. I roll over onto my side where the nurse sat down. "They're not bullies, they're assassins" I mutter. She carries on preparing to take the scalpel out even though she heard me. "OK I'm going to finally take this thing out, are you ready?"


"Been ready since he put it in my hand."


"On the count of 3. 1, 2...."


Oooooooowww! I scream.


"All done" says nurse Weiss tossing the knife in the trash. She wipes the wound with the sterilizing wipe then puts the bandage on. "For the love of God!" I yell, tossing and turning in my bed. "It's late sweetie and you have had a long day why don't you get some rest?" The nurse leaves and shuts the light off. After she shuts off the lights I realize how late it was because no light was coming in through the window. I turn over one last time and close my eyes, I fall asleep as fast as how the lights turned off.
