"I can change everything
about me to fit it"──────⊱⁜⊰──────
We had just got back from a call dealing with someone lost in a fire, thankfully we were able to rescue everyone. We were all disgusting and we just wanted this shift to be over, but we still had about 12 houses left.
"aww shit" I breathed out as I rummaged through my open locker. I usually keep an extra bottle of my medication for my heart inside of it, in case I don't get home in time to take one from my bottle at home, but I must have run the bottle out. I wouldn't die, well hopefully not, but it raises the chance of my heart doing something weird on a call.
"Everything okay?" Judd asked from his locker across the room. I turned around to everyone looking at me with looks full of worry. I knew Tk would get pissed if I told him about my medicine, but I rather tell him now than tell him, when I am laying on the floor dying.
Again wishful thinking.
"No, yeah I'm good, Just forgot to refill my medicine. I'll be good." I grabbed my hairbrush to start brushing out my hair. "So you will be a little more crankier than usual, maybe you should sit today out." Tk made a joke, that gained a few laughs from my peers. I chuckled too and then turned to look at him.
"My heart medicine, you freak." I slowly said, with humor lacing my voice, and punched his shoulder. He didn't find this funny, because his smile dropped almost immediately and he grabbed the empty pill bottle from my locker. I saw panic fill his eyes, and worry start to fill his body. "I'll be fine. It's not the first time and It won't be the last time either."
"Raya this is serious. I mean like really serious. You need to go home and get some medicine, Im getting Dad to send you home." The whole room's eyes were back on us again, and I felt like I was suffocating. I was trying not to tell the team about this because I didn't want them to not trust my abilities out on the field.
I could still do my job just as well as they could.
"What, no, you are being unreasonable." I went to reach for the bottle still in his hands but he stepped back away from me and rose his hand as tall as he can. "I promise this thing isn't gonna kill me, but you will." He seemed to think about what I just said for a moment before he turned around a raced down the stairs.
"oh come on" I took off after him and followed him up the stairs to my dad's office. He slammed the pill bottle on top of his desk, interrupting my dad, doing paperwork. My dad looked up at the pill bottle and then at me and Tk.
"I am sensing this is a sibling argument, and I'm opting to stay out of it. Thank you!" My dad joked and looked back down to his paperwork.
"It's Raya's medicine. Her heart medicine. She's out."
"I am not out Tk, I just forgot to bring my other one from home. Maybe if you would shut up for just one minute, you would have heard me when I told you that." Tk stepped closer to me and looked into my eyes. Was this boy seriously challenging me right now? All the times I beat him up as a kid, I won't hesitate to do it again.
"Okay, okay kids. enough. Jesus. Raya I am sending you home early, and you can come back after you take medicine, or you can stay at home." I went to interrupt him and he held his finger out to me. "Tk you need to stop challenging Raya, you almost die every single time, without fail."
"Yeah, I am not going home. I will be fine Dad, I promise. This is not the first time I've forgotten it, but I will try to make it my last." I smiled up at Dad and went to go turn out of the room.
"Dad, she's gonna get herself killed. and then everyone is gonna run in and save her and get themselves killed too."
I was fuming now "and that is exactly why, I didn't go around advertising about this." I point to my heart. "But you just don't know how to keep people's business to your fucking self. God damnit Tk, Now everyone is gonna doubt me. People in New York didn't know, and they didn't need to know here either." I walked back and grabbed to empty bottle from the dad's desk and stormed out of the room. Only to be greeted by my whole team eavesdropping.
I was pissed.
I can hear my brother's footsteps behind me and I make my way to the engine to start cleaning.
I can sense the whole team's eyes on the two of us.
My brother is still following behind me when I hear him mumble "Did you forget all of your medication today."
Without hesitation, I swing my body and arm and punch in straight in the jaw. It's not the first time I have done it, but it is the first time he has tried to swing back. We both lunge at each other but are broken up by the team coming to Tks rescue.
I ring my hand out, in pain, and brush the hand off my shoulder. I began to walk towards the kitchen when I see my dad looking down at the scene we just caused.
The whole firehouse is silent.
"Go home, both of you. now"
