"Where am I?" She asked as her vision adjusted to the light thoroughly surrounding the room.
"The hospital, baby." She knew that voice but couldn't grasp it quick enough for her own satisfaction once he stepped into eyesight as her eyesight cleared up.
"Why are we--" She cut her own self off as she raised her right arm to see a long needle taped into her inner elbow.
The sight immediately sent her into panic mode, causing her body to shake. She hated needles and the last thing she wanted to see was a hydration needle in her arm as if it's important.
Kaidence looked at her frantically. He didn't know what was happening or why it was happening.
"Why would you let them do this?" She questioned him in anger as she tried her best to peel back the tape, but on the verge of tears because of the pain caused by the tape being abruptly attached to her skin.
"It's for hydra--I know what it's for!" She slightly yelled at him.
"I'm not dumb, Kaidence."
"But we are currently in a foreign country. And if you hadn't known before, well you know now that you are the only one who knows half of what they are saying and who knows if they know anything about medically treating English patients accordingly," She stressed.
Considering her current state, she didn't realize that she was being racially critical. She only knew that she was afraid of what their knowledge of medicine ranked for them to be putting needles in her arm.
Especially for the reason that she took an anatomy/health science class in her sophomore year of college that has researched, proven, and graphed that other countries are taught based on their ethnicity's DNA background due to different race's and ethnicity's having different common diseases, sicknesses, DNA inheritance and etcetera.
Although she knows that she has someone to care for her, she didn't want to risk getting sick in a place other than her home country, because she feared that it may not be able to be reversed by treatment. And she feared being in a state like that would make her a burden on her boyfriend.
The male took a step back. A hurt look transformed his confused expression while he couldn't help but stare at her in disbelief.
"Do you really think I'd let someone harm you?" Kai asked, his feelings genuinely hurt by her words.
"Ugh..." Zurichi groaned. "No, I just don't want a needle in my arm, Kaidence all I want is for this to be taken out," She simplified as her tears began to pour down her round face.
"I don't know!" She cried out. "I don't know what's wrong with me! I don't know why I'm like this" And as she was expressing her feelings of frustration, her lover was swiftly taking off his white sneakers to get in the bed beside her.
"I don't know why I'm so emotional all of a sudden, but I hate it--Shhh..." He shushed as he brought her into his arms.
"I don't want to cry. I can't stop crying... why can't I stop crying!" She yelled, finally getting a sense of what Kristina felt from Grey's anatomy.
This is the moment when Kaidence finally realized that his girlfriend being one to frequently cage her feelings and not often cry is a problem.
He thought that he was the emotional one. He believed himself to be the emotional wreck, but she just needed that push to outdo him.
