HUNTER LEANED HER BODY over the pool table as she lined her shot up, "So it's pretty serious, then?"
Her first shift back at work was one that she had waited weeks for, quickly growing tired of laying on the couch and continuous physical therapy for her abdominal muscles.
It seemed most things had gone back to normal, the 118 no longer left lingering gazes in Hunter's direction whenever she walked by them.
